"Next unread topic"

[Peckris 2]

In some forums - e.g. Items for Sale - I was paging through endless supposedly unread topics (the "Next unread topic" button was at the bottom of every topic which should only be there for actual unread topics).

Eventually - after wondering why so   many people were selling stuff - I noticed the dates of each topic were a few years old! Has there been a software change very recently?

I think it has been like that since the software was upgraded as I found I also had a trillion unread messages. CP should be able to confirm.

What happened was that CP moved the Wanted and For Sale sections to the Members section and so most got reset as unread.

I wasn't aware that moving something like that would then default everything under it to 'unread'!

If you go to the 'branch' in question, e.g Wanted, there should be an option at the top to 'Mark Forum as Read'. This is what it looks like for me but it may look different for other browser/OSes.

I'll try that for the forums where it happens. Most work normally though.
