Hello. I need to help again.

I noticed one particular thing.

In my forum - https://bozpforum.cz does not work highlighting unread topics.

I have disabled all cache plugins. I turned off autooptimize. Deleted all cache. I tested on another PC. I registered a new user. It does not work.

Can this be activated in settings (I have not found) or is it a mistake? You do not know what a mistake it could make.

Thank you for your help.

Hi @vit-hofman .  Are you referring to the "Unread Posts" ?  This is actually a "link", like for example here at wpForo, 

The "Unread Posts" at the top right goes to 

 https://wpforo.com/community/recent/ ?view=unread

Notice the ?view=unread? 

That would look different for different users, because it is dependent on the forum cookies set on a user's device or browser, when they log in.  

I visited your site and took a screenshot.  (will attach here).  Which shows the Unread Posts are showing as "Bold" or "Highlighted = Bold" .  It's appearing bold in my device (PC) because I haven't visited your Forum before and have not accepted your website cookies.  It shows different for those who have "accepted" website cookies.  A Registered User would accept website cookies.  So it will show differently too.  (like your screenshot) 🙂  

To test this, go to your browser, select internet options and delete all cookies and delete all browsing  history.  Then visit your site again, and you'll see. 

I think your website is looking good.  🙂

I'm just a member here who used to be a newbie.

The case: When I actually put my keyboard where my forum is, and became #172. Can you imagine if you had to build this forum yourself? How kind and patient will you be? The best way to say thank you is say it, write it, and then head on over at Wordpress plugin page and rate wpForo 5 stars - by clicking here.

Nono, it still does not work. The list of the last topics is ok, bold. but the bold highlighting is missing from the main list on the homepage.

Okay, I don't know if something is getting lost in translation here (in my head, sorry).  

This might explain it better.  I guess I have reached what I can explain. (I'm just a member here trying to help too)

This explanation from Robert will explain this cookie behavior and tracking read / unread, better.  

https://wpforo.com/community/wpforo-announcements/wpforo-1-5-2-is-released/#post-19082

"For logged in users this will be tracked on all devices, once you login you'll see almost the same read/unread status of all forums and topics. Registered users are being tracked based on database data. So if you change device or browser it doesn't affect. You just need to login.

For guests (not logged-in users) it's only being tracked for current browser and based on cookies."

So my understanding is, it will show up "as read" (thin-font) in our individual forums, because as "Admins" logging in and out of our forums, there WILL be stored cookies in OUR devices, when we log in as ourselves.  

Maybe the wpForo Team can also help, I just shared what I thought was a possible answer.  Good luck @vit-hofman. Sorry I wasn't able to help.

I apologize for my English. I'm doing what I can. I appreciate you trying to help me.

Let me try again, last time, using pictures.

  1. I'm on a computer where I show my wpForo for the first time.
  2. Unlogged user.
  3. Anonymous window.
  4. All cache deleted.
  5. Cache plugins off.
  6. Browser Cookie deleted.

 

On the homepage, everything is shown in thin text as read - Picture 1 - it's wrong.
If I move on to recent topics, everything is fine here and shown in bold font as unread - Picture 2.

On wpforo.com everything works ok, see Picture 3.

 

It does not relate to cookies. I have tried a completely different PC. Where I have never been logged into my Google Account and where my wpforo has never been loaded.
If you see unread topics in the homepage, please screen. 

 

Thx

If I switch to extended layout, then everything is fine and unread posts are bold. See attached picture.
So I assume there will be a bug in the threaded layout.
The question is, is there an error on my site or directly in the plugin?
