I only do lookups for posts, mainly in Gloucestershire, and it is most annoying when clicking on Unread to find posts that I have already looked at on my previous visit.

Both true, but under the old system the post was marked in the title page , which I found very handy. 


This facility has been invaluable to me and if I will now have to sift through posts to locate a restore or thread where I've posted, I'm not sure how I'll cope.

I sincerely hope that Trystan will be able to come up with a solution.

Maybe there's a reply been added since your previous visit.   Click on 'new' by the post and the replies you haven't read will come up.

Hi Silvery,
It's not the replies that I'm having a problem with, it's when I click on Unread, I get the same unread posts as my previous visit.

Hi Victor  :)

Have you seen this thread:

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,630029.0.html

I think that Trystan and Bob are trying to work out when/why, etc. the Unreads change.

Hi Brevitas,
Thanx for your reply. It seems I am not the only one experiencing this problem! Let's hope somebody sorts it out soon as it is a pain trawling over previously read posts!

Maybe its just me, but . . . . I'm not getting problems with Unread posts?

If I click on Unread, its oly threads I haven't read that show up?
Unless a new post has been added, of course, but then it always did that!

The only thing different id the yellow flag - and Trystan & co are looking into that.

I think the problem with Unread Posts mentioned on that other thread is to do with number of unread posts showing up not read ones re-appearing.
