Didn't see it in the first post so thought I bring it up. I noticed that if I browsed here at say 7am (forum been made *Mark Forums Read* last night, since wanted to check if it was working as before), then browse the forum for a while, reading the posts I want. When coming back 4 hours later the posts I didn't read earlier still showing, compared to before when all posts from earlier had been greyed out. Not sure how many finds it useful but I did, although guess if it can't be fixed, then just have to try and remember to go and click the *Mark Forums Read* button each time.. :o

That's the whole idea of unread posts. I doesn't mark it read unless you've actually read it...

True, but if you don't want to read every single post, I found it useful that the previous version marked them all having been read when you come back couple hours later, especially if you just doing a quick browse of favourite topics and then walk away to do other stuff. Guess that was a bug with the previous version then since it was working that way then.

It's an option in the admin CP whether the forum remembers posts from last visit or not.

Before it was only last visit, now it seems you have to read them which I prefer.

I believe it to be performance/database size related.
 
No real problem, just a cosmetic thing...

When viewed on iPad the following along the top are in different font (Times New Roman I think) to everything else on the page; Forums, Members, Inbox, Alerts, Mark Forums Read etc.
 
A break line between all replies would look better imo, I'm sure someone did it and posted a picture explaining this yesterday.
 
I can't find a "view last post" button, which makes using the forums extremely laborious as I have to go to the last page, scroll to the bottom, and then scroll up til the latest post I haven't seen.
Typing this response in the Quick Reply box, the font is Times New Roman and black text. Not great on the eyes. Also double tapping Space isn't automatically adding full stops.
Browsing on an iPhone 6+ if it makes a difference.

It's been reported. Issue with iOS 10.

Not sure if this helps.

On a thread where you have unread posts.
Clicking the yellow envelope icon goes to the first unread post (the first one with a 'New' tag in the top right).
Clicking the thread title does the same.
Clicking the time/date under the username on the right hand side goes to the very last post in the thread.

On a thread where you have no unread posts.

It's showing that I'm a member of staff under notable members, and no one else. FYI.



Additionally, who gave Gibbo a like?!! :mad:

Not for me it isn't. The list is empty.

And nobody. However the fact that someone gave Gilly a like could be a sign of things to come.
 
I'm so notable.
