New posts counter is wrong sometimes
-
ok to spice this up a bit, just saw 5 new posts, 4 threads listed, but threads+comments = 5 ...
so is it working or not working :P -
Note that the front page can be the victim of some caching and that will throw of the math by a bit.
In summary the code says $total_new = $post_count + $topic_count; based on a time stamp from the last visit.
-
Does that mean a new topic is counted both as a post and a topic?
-
hi Marius, today morning I saw some like 41 as the count for new posts, I had to close browser and reboot, when I logged back in, it was down to like 4 posts :( think I missed a whole bunch of posts... something to be looked into? I managed to open a few replies (13) from my subscriptions via mail, but lost the rest ...
-
Not sure I can do anything to help out with that :|
-
but isnt that a bug? Unless one opens a post, it shuld continue to be listed...
-
It's "Posts since last visit" not "Unread" I'm afraid.

I did this,
- Login to devnet, 7 new posts, read one post
- Now devnet home page shows 6 new posts
- From a totally new browser logged into devnet and still see 6 new posts
So if this were posts since last visit, it should have shown 0 ?
-
more issues ...
just now went to the devnet home, and saw that there were 4 unread posts, I clicked on it and saw a single post with 2 replies, and I already had viewed this post with the same 2 replies ... -

Do you remember if you had a page view on the front page earlier with 4 unread posts? If so we need to tweak the cache headers to be stricter.
-
nope I was in a thread and then navigated to the home page and saw the new posts
-
Just wanted to know if it's possible to set the "new post counter" back to zero without having to open all forum posts? Pretty anoying and loging in and out doesn't help either
-
Sometimes site clear old unread messages, but only sometimes... :)
-
Would be nice to be able to reset the counter manually or by loging out/in, as they are supposed to be the posts since my last visit.... I'aint going to open all 1053 forum posts!!! :-)

This is already on the wishlist, see "QTWEBSITE-130":http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTWEBSITE-130 on the bugtracker. You can vote for it - it might speed up implementation a bit :-)

-
Yeah, counter seems to be fixed!!! But a bit bored have less to read now ;-)
-
:( Nope it ain't... on the other hand was getting bored, so got something on my hand (clicking all forum posts) ;-)

BTW, you can "mark all as read" by clicking this link: http://developer.qt.nokia.com/forums/mark_all_read/
We will add a button/link for it somewhere soon. :)
