Title: All posts are unread
Post by: NGTM-1R on September 05, 2009, 12:51:18 pm: Every post on the board has been marked as new to me. Every. Single. One.

Y'all might want to look into that. :P

Title: User account problem
Post by: jr2 on September 05, 2009, 01:57:28 pm: Hi, I don't know what happened, but now when I click "show new replies", I get 71 pages of threads... I only had half a page. And there are threads that I am the last poster in that are marked as 'unread', and none of the posts were edited. Just so you know... maybe it's only my account, I dunno.

Already did. Just thought the admins might want to look at the code if it's not limited to my account.

You might want to post something in the Forum News box, instead of directing everybody to a single post on the fourth page of a thread. :p

Post by: Mongoose on September 05, 2009, 06:02:50 pm: Well, I guess that quashes my OCD desire to read the two years' worth of posts in the Modding forum that I missed. Thanks muchly, Fury. :p

Post by: Goober5000 on September 05, 2009, 06:25:17 pm: We have a forum backup from just a few days ago (Thursday). Can't we just copy the "messages read" table from the backup forum to the live forum?

Post by: Fury on September 06, 2009, 01:18:27 am: Nope.

I kinda expected everyone to follow that one topic by now.
Title: Re: All posts are unread
Post by: Goober5000 on September 06, 2009, 03:37:42 am: For four pages? Announcements are supposed to be restricted to the first post in a thread only. All subsequent posts are discussion. If a new announcement needs to be made, it should be made in a new thread.

Anyway, I've added a news item.

And why can't we import the old "message read" table? Is it a case of laziness, technical difficulty, or technical impossiblity?
