Forum Issues And Questions

[Rinn]

Post anything you find here.The Forums show there are active posts even after I look at them. The icons only gray out if I go and mark that forum as read.

I noticed this too, but it marks each thread you have read.... so you must not have read them all.... I went back and tested this and could not duplicate it. There were threads I missed, once I read them it was correct.by clicking the "New Post" link it will show you what you have not read also.... test it again and see if you can duplicate it?

[Rhett]

Also you can check this thread to ensure you have this set properly, I have made it so all new users have this by default, but when I import from the other sites, users will have to do it manually. http://http://www.exactservers.com/forum/index.php?/topic/204-how-to-set-your-new-post-feature/

Same here. When I click "View new content" stuff I just read is still there. Be nice if it would just dissapear like i'm used to

[Captain]

Also when you get a visitor message, when you view it, it should make all the notifications in the upper right hand corner dissapear, but it still shows a "1" You have to click on it, and walk through it to let it know you've viewed it. Any way to fix that?

Got this figured out by going into my settings and changing it to "view only what I have not read"

I'm missing the new active posts links

[Captain]

I show 3.............the "active posts" to the left of the search box, is all within the last 24 hours. Under the search box there is an "active posts" button again, this one seems to be the "new/unread" one, and also the one to the right, the "view new content" button is the "new/unread" button as well

[Rhett]

I was changing up the active and new post yesterday, I made them hidden until you log in, when I did this, I renamed the second one wrong, I'll fix it...

[Rhett]

active and new post on the nav bar is fixed

[db79]

I logged out and logged back in and still missing the active and new links which were inbetween "subscriptions" and the search box. I do have "view new content" under the search box though

[Rhett]

ok let me check my code, it goes by usergroup

[Rhett]

it should be fixed now... I missed the supermod group.

[db79]

Yup, all fixed now

[Rhett]

thanks

[Rinn]

Still doing it.

[Rhett]

did you change your thread marking type?if so open the forum and read all the threads.... I can't duplicate it for some reason.

[Rinn]

[Rhett]

I have a semi-new issue, Whenever I sign on, the 0 next to my name changes to a 1, like it's trying to notify me of a new message, but when I click on it, it does nothing. I have to go to my settings, messages and view the ones you and J-Paul already left me and then it displays a 0 again?Feels good to be a newb again, btw <----------

[Rhett]

try clicking on the actual box with the 1 in it.... see if that works, it did for me

[Captain]

I did, there's a green box that pops up top center that says "Loading" but it never does anything. I have to go to my settings> messages to view it before it will clear. Then at some point throughout the day, it will show a 1 again when there is nothing new to view. I have to do the same again to clear it

Then you most likely have a pop up blocker stopping the forums inline notification (pop ups)

"preview post" doesnt seem to be working :)actually it does work...just .........very....very slow

[Rhett]

That's actually a client side java script, meaning it depends on your pc to run the java script, which means if it's slow you need a faster computer lol :)Is it slow for anyone else?
