Hi Trev,

What's new/new posts still not listing all threads, does not show this one for example.
Only recent activity on the home page lists all new posts/threads.
Completely cleared cookies/history/logged out using iPad.

Thanks.

Edit see screen shot:

Further to the above, and what's new issue. If a user updates a thread, then it seems to be lost from his whats new thread. All the ones I've replied to are no longer listed. Can access them from Forum page though. Hope this helps

Yes you are right, all those I have replied/created are missing.

The "What's New" page is only supposed to show threads that you haven't opened or have been updated since you last looked at them. This is different from the "Recent Posts" sidebar which doesn't alter when you visit a thread.

I will speak with Conaero about whether he intended for it to act like this or not - we may need to create a "Recent Posts" page for those that want it and rename "What's New" to "Unread Posts" to avoid confusion.

Cheers - Trev

It does seem there is a difference. I can see all the threads in 'What's New' that others are saying they cannot.

Well, yes, but I don't tend to reply without having read all the posts *or* read all the posts *without* pressing the 'What's New' button, so it was pretty much expected behaviour for me.

Current issues are:
1. Forum login not remembering password FIXED, please empty your cache, history and delete any cookies that relate to SportsMaserati
2. More smilies box fails in advance post FIXED
3. All new Threads are going into CLASSIFIEDS>OTHER forum FIXED
4. Classifieds does not display for all users, returns blank page FIXED
5. What's New issues for some users. FIXED, this now works slightly differently, it lists all the items that you have not read in the past 24hrs. If you click the link, that listing will be removed from the list. Use the Most Active Threads SIDEBAR for chronological items

Maybe not from the upgrade, but why does the "spotted" thread always start at the beginning when I click on it in the recent posts section? Everything else goes to the most recent pages.

Good point, I've noticed this as well. Happens on the Spotted thread and a few others.

Yes, its a pain isn't it. I thought that would be taken care of when we did the upgrade, Ill have a Google and see what I come up with but I fear its an inherent problem with Vbulletin.
