Problem With Unread Posts 

Post#1 » by theogeo7 » Sun Jul 14, 2013 9:31 am

Hello everyone ,

the last 4-5 days i experience this problem

i am reading ,for example , the whole 3 pages of a topic and after that it is still marked as unread.

when i press the "go to first unread" icon it takes me back to the first post of the topic...

any suggestions pls ? :-?

We've had problems like this fairly regularly. Unfortunately the forums are so big that we can't enable server side tracking, so the read status is saved on your computer in a cookie. Sometimes the cookies aren't saved right I guess and the read status of a topic is lost. We've just kind of been working through it until we can find a better solution.
