Problem with topics not marked as read

Post by RandomUsername »

The last few days I've been seeing a weird problem.

The B2 & B3 Support forum icon is red meaning there are unread topics:
b2forum.jpg
b2forum.jpg (9.82 KiB) Viewed 14988 times
But when I go the the forum, all the topics are marked as read.

This has happened on multiple machines so is not a local cache/cookie issue.

If I click on "Mark topics read" it fixes it for a day or so but then comes back.

Anyone else?

I've noticed the same thing. Could it have something to do with newbie posts having to be confirmed by moderator? The icon is read, indicating unread posts, but we can't see them until they have been confirmed by moderator.

If this is the case, I wonder if clicking "Mark topics read", will flag the unlisted post as read as well and I will not see it as a new post once it is confirmed?

Sounds reasonable.
