Hi all,

Noticed that in one of our forums our new threads (topics) aren't coming through as new posts and showing as unread.

For example,

We have one area that is a forum. Within that area, we have four sub forums. The last thread (topic) which was 2 months ago is showing as the last post, whilst in actual fact the most recent thread (topic) was this evening, yet it doesn't show as unread on the main forum page.

I've tried clearing All caches, updated topic stats and forum stats along with rebuild threads / sync user profiles, yet there's still no update to it.

Could you please advise?

Kind Regards

Cotty

Currently forums only display unread status if a new unread topic is added directly in that forum. There is no deep checking functions yet. So the sub-forum new unread topic status don't appears on the main parent forum. This is under development and will be updated in near future releases.

Are you planning on adding this feature as it is something that would be very useful? Wpforo is great but it is lacking in some very basic features that are available in most other forums.

Hi @cliff-evans,

Could you please specify which "very basic" features you mean?
