Topic: Unread posts get marked as read

RestlessTexasGirl We are having a problem with unread posts showing as read when they haven't been read.

If you post on the board, prior to reading unread posts, they all show as being read.

Is anyone else having this problem? Is there anything I can do on my end to correct it?

Thanks

sdn This is a notorious bug in ExCo. Peter fixes it in one form and it comes back in another. It's probably something that can only be fixed server-side, in the PHP code we can't edit. I'll send Peter a PM about it.

RestlessTexasGirl Thanks sdn, I appreciate it.

Peter To fix this problem on your board you'll need to go into Custom Templates and go to the Thread template and press the "Reset to original" button.
If you've customized the thread template and don't want to reset it, you can also delete the following text from the thread template:
<input type="hidden" name="fieldusername" value="{iftrue_qreply.usr}"><input type="hidden" name="fieldpassword" value="{iftrue_qreply.pwd}">

It's located a few lines below <!-- BEGIN iftrue_qreply -->

sdn I guess we can fix it.

RestlessTexasGirl I have customized templates, so I will delete the above and see what happens. Thank you Peter & sdn.
