Problem with Quick Links -> Mark Forums Read?

[JrC]

This afternoon I notice an issue with Quick Links -> Mark Forums Read

The command that is issued in incorrect. If I have requested New Posts the url command that ended up being displayed might be:

http://www.satelliteguys.us/search.php?searchid=2383812

The mark forums read command will be:

http://www.satelliteguys.us/search.php?searchid=2383812#

This occurs when using Opera 9.64. It is alright using Firefox 3.5.1

I was wrong about this being browser related. After requesting new posts or some sort of a search, the menu item Quick Links -> Mark Forums Read no longer works.

Thanks

It would seem that I am the only one experiencing this.

 

[Mr Tony]

nope. I have same issues

can only mark forums read from main page and not after doing a "show new posts" for a specific area (like Dish, Direct, FTA)

Can you give me a details report of what your doing?

I am using Firefox and I go to the navagation bar on top, then click "Quick Links" then select "Mark Forums Read" and it works.

Maybe I am looking at the wrong place.

If I do (In This Order)

1) New Post----> Mark forum read
2) Iget Invalid Link
3) Then I do Quick Links----> Mark Forums read
4) That works Fine

However If I go directly to Quick Links ----> Mark forum read it does not work

That is very odd...

If you look at the links they both go to the same place.

Its the exact same code...

There is no reason why it works sometimes and then dosent work other times.

I am confused.

 

[Mr Tony]

I go
new posts---->new FTA posts (or Dish or DIrect...same thing)
shows the FTA posts
quick links--->mark forums read

shows "done" in left corner but doesnt clear them

but if I'm on main page or in a topic and do "mark forums read" then it works

I think it has to do with the search for new threads area then marking them read

Please try it out now and report back any issues.

I finally saw it happen myself the links in the navbar would all be changed to search.php?searchid=3243287 stuff which didn't make any sense.

Looks like its a bug in the vbSEO software, so I added the search.php file to the exclude list from processing by vbSEO and that seemed to fix it for me.

That one took like 4 hours to track it down.

It works for me. Thanks for the effort.

I didn't get a chance to check this thread. I had gone camping.

Thanks again.
