New posts counter is wrong sometimes
-
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 ...

[quote author="mariusg" date="1288701988"]It's "Posts since last visit" not "Unread" I'm afraid.[/quote]
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 ?

[quote author="chetankjain" date="1291047786"]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 ...[/quote]Could be that your browser cached the page since last time? 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.

[quote author="ucomesdag" date="1293318998"]Would be nice to be able 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!!! :-) [/quote]
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 :-)

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. :)

But that would be too easy ;) Already added it to my favs :-)

In my opinion this is not resolved yet.
I just finished reading all the new posts. So the counter was zero. I refresh the website one second later and it shows 6 new posts. I open the list and see 1 topic. I open the topic and there are 6 posts. I'm very sure it was the last one i read and it had 5 posts when i read it.
So i'm pretty sure the counter counts the posts even if i already opened them before. It should have counted just one, since i alredy read the previous 5.Seems to me the number of new posts is the sum of all posts where there is a new post in a topic.
Should i report a new bug for this?
