Problem with the forums

You know how the little square will be blue over to the left of the forum when there is a new post? Well, every time I get on, it still says that the topics I read are new, though there are no new post in them.

strange, well I switched to a system that automatically stores the read times in the db (rather than the cookie based system). Hope this fixes it :wink:

Still a problem here. What you really need is a button to mark all forums as read. Most forums have that so that you don't have to read EVERY friggin post... just read the ones you're interested in, then hit "mark as read". That would take care of any issues with lingering new indicators. :wink:

added :) Check the footer.

also not sure if you already know, but the blue icons that show up on the main page can be double clicked to mark read just one section.
