Subject: New Messages
In the IP 2.0, the new messages are not marked as read when you close your explorer and you open it again in the same or another computer.
What to do to repair it?

You need to log out. ;)

Yes, but disconnect and connect each day to not see posts of yesterday.
Another solution without log out?

Use Upi2DB system instead of cookie based and then click on U(#) for unread messages :wink:

I think do you've not understand me. In the previous versions, when you had read a message, this was marked as read.
Now in this new version this is not so and I would have it as before...
My answer is What to do to return to the previous model for read messages, but mantaining the new version 2.0.0.86?

Subject: Re: New Messages
Then do you mean the post icon should change and the topic title colour too?? ...this should actually be working fine :shock:

EDIT:
Could it be that you are deleting cookies automatically when you close IE?

Subject: Re: New Messages
No, what I mean is that the read messages are still seen in the list of unread messages. READ messages meet with the really unread.
What to do to change that without logout?

Subject: Re: New Messages
Then I can only say it again...

Do you know how to activate it?

Subject: Re: New Messages
In the ACP --> unread messages?

Subject: Re: New Messages
you can try to cut sessions time down by settings

BTW

here it works very well

Subject: Re: New Messages
Yes, ACP >> configuration >> new posts

And if you set it to "user settings", users can activate it by themsleves, "yes" should force it.

Coming from version 0.53 b where messages were automatically marked as read and did not continue in the message list again, I think it is now very difficult to understand and use it. I would like to have the new version but with messages read list from the previous version. It's easier for users.

It has been suggested many times that it's not that user friendly. :(

If you can convince MG to change it - You will be doing well. :mricy:

But now I'm going to mark all forums read and log out, so that I don't see them again. :P

Well if someone really would like to mess with this, I think there would be a pretty simple way by editing the html in nav_header.tpl:

Find:
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
<!-- BEGIN switch_upi2db_on -->
<span style="vertical-align:middle;">{L_POSTS}:&nbsp;<a href="{FULL_SITE_PATH}{U_SEARCH_NEW}">{L_NEW2}</a>&nbsp;•&nbsp;{L_DISPLAY_U}&nbsp;•&nbsp;{L_DISPLAY_M}&nbsp;•&nbsp;{L_DISPLAY_P}&nbsp;&nbsp;<img src="{FULL_SITE_PATH}{IMG_MENU_SEP}" alt="" style="vertical-align:middle;" />&nbsp;</span>
<!-- END switch_upi2db_on -->


Remove:
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
{L_POSTS}:&nbsp;<a href="{FULL_SITE_PATH}{U_SEARCH_NEW}">{L_NEW2}</a>&nbsp;•&nbsp;


Remove:
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
•&nbsp;{L_DISPLAY_M}&nbsp;•&nbsp;{L_DISPLAY_P}&nbsp;


And change the lang variable a little for DISPLAY_U.
Then force everyone to Upi2DB in ACP.

Spydie's idea may be a nice way to shorten the time these posts will show up.
And Mort is right ..there is very little chance MG will revert this change.

EDIT:
TBH I did not like the Upi2DB system either, but I got used to it very fast, it's very accurate :wink:

Subject: Re: New Messages
Thanks Joshua203, I'll test it.
