Topic: Something that drives me crazy

You know how when there is a new post in a forum you haven't seen yet, the name of the forum in the forums index will be bolded?

Well, it drives me crazy how for example if I make a post in general gaming, then instead of going back to that specific forum I go to the forum index instead, I will have the last post in that forum but the name of the forum will still be bolded as if there were a new post that I haven't seen yet.

A small bug, but worth mentioning as it annoys me and hopefully it would be an easy fix for you guys while you are messing with the code sometime.

Re: Something that drives me crazy

The messing we're doing at the moment is with new code, not the old stuff. But yes, it's an old old bug that's just never been fixed.

Crast might be able to fix it, otherwise it'll have to wait for the rewrite of the forums.

Well like I said whatever is good for you guys, as long as the issue is on the table.  I will be happy as long as by the time the new forums come that bug is not present.  smile

It irritates me too, actually.  I can think of a quick fix which will reduce its occurrence, but there's no 100% fix until we can make some major changes to the forums.   I will see what I can do about it.

Bump.   This should be fixed, kinda.   It doesn't fix the problem if you close your browser or clear your cookies, but it will solve the problem if you reply then go to the forum index.
