Show unread posts since last visit problem

Well the past few days when I've hit the 'show unread posts since last visit' button, it hasn't always shown all of them. A case in point being Phil's reply in 'Blather, Waffle and Poppycock'. Not a big deal of course but it means sometimes I might miss replies to subjects I'm interested in. Anyone else having the same issue?

No, it works just fine for me.

Some points of note, if you did not know:

- any posts unread when you leave the forum will not show up again when you return and press that button (well, sometimes anyway)

- when looking at the tree with all the folders ( starting with Pendraken Miniatures Forum) any folders with unread posts will be marked blue

- this marking also happens if folders have been shuffled around by an admin

Very, very occasionally, Steve.

I tend to check the opening page for the little blue boxes, on the left.....(as well)..and sometimes they don't appear to match up with the 'show unread posts'. :-\

Odd.

Cheers - Phil

At the bottom right of the show unread list there's also a Show All Unread which will include ones you'd maybe missed on previous visits. It links to:

I don't think I'd dare, Matthew !  ;)
