New topics do not show with span tags only new posts to old topics. Every thing works great when using this plugin on latest descusion though new posts and topics show. Im assuming the error is because of the newer version of bbpress and im guessing the error is somewhere in these lines <pre><code>function up_mark_forum_unread($item) { global $bbdb,$bb_current_user, $forum, $unread_posts,$up_last_login,$up_forums,$up_last_login_forums; if (!isset($up_forums)) { // unfortunately requires an extra query, data impossible to store $user = bb_get_user($bb_current_user->ID); if ($user->up_read_topics) {$up_forums=@$bbdb->get_col("SELECT DISTINCT forum_id FROM $bbdb->topics WHERE topic_id IN (".trim($user->up_read_topics,", ").")

So while topics with new posts show up bold, new topics don't show up bold. Any way to add this functionality? I'm using 0.9.0.6 on a Linux system (MediaTemple shared hosting). bbhack on "Unread Posts" http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/unread-posts/page/3/#post-4529 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 23:37:43 +0000 bbhack 4529@http://bbpress.org/plugins/ Just an update. I think _ck_ 's code is probably fine. What I discovered is that the up_last_login time wasn't being updated when my users were logging in. The plugin uses the action bb_user_login to update the login time. But if you are using some other login integration (like me) and the bb_login function is never called, then the login time will not be updated (except when you click the Mark all as read link). I fixed my code login code (which only calls set_auth_cookie) to have the do_action call for bb_user_login and now it is working fine. bbhack on "Unread Posts" http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/unread-posts/page/3/#post-4528 Tue, 08 Sep 2009 22:57:08 +0000 bbhack 4528@http://bbpress.org/plugins/ I'm seeing the same behavior as anandasama on my 1.0.2 install. I think there may be a logic flaw in the plugin. Hopefully, _ck_ will comment. When you click the mark as read link, it updates the bb_usermeta table and sets the new up_last_login time. The update prepends the current time to the current value and separates them with a |. So you get something like this: new_last_login_time| old_last_login_time When the code then tried to read back out last_login_time it does this: <code>$up_last_login=trim(end(explode("|","|".$user->up_last_login)));</code> So what it actually fetches is the old_last_login time. This is what is causing the weird behavior. The plugin is using the old login time instead of the new one so it then shows all posts since the old login time as being unread. When you click the mark as read link a second time, you overwrite the values again so that's why the unread highlights finally go away. A way to fix this would be to change the code to be this: <code>$up_last_login = trim(reset(explode("|",$user->up_last_login)));</code> This will make the code fetch the new login time instead. chandersbs on "Unread Posts" http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/unread-posts/page/3/#post-4352 Tue, 18 Aug 2009 10:04:41 +0000 chandersbs 4352@http://bbpress.org/plugins/ I saw on bbshowcase.org the ability to view all unread topics via a single button. How can I achieve that too? anandasama on "Unread Posts" http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/unread-posts/page/3/#post-4202 Sun, 02 Aug 2009 19:23:07 +0000 anandasama 4202@http://bbpress.org/plugins/ I use 1.0.1 and I have to click twice to update all topics read, and the bold link takes me to the last post. Is this because I use 1.0 ? And Is there a way to flag the topic automatically as read after looking at it? For now they keep higlighted until i clear all posts read. And on a sidenote, It would be nice with a function to mark specific threads as read too instead of everone at the same time. _ck_ on "Unread Posts" http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/unread-posts/page/3/#post-3983 Thu, 16 Jul 2009 14:43:11 +0000 _ck_ 3983@http://bbpress.org/plugins/ I would be very surprised if this worked on 1.0 right now. It's fairly complex. alexleonard on "Unread Posts" http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/unread-posts/page/3/#post-3982 Thu, 16 Jul 2009 14:31:13 +0000 alexleonard 3982@http://bbpress.org/plugins/ Out of interest does this work with version 1? (it says compatible up to 0.9 but some of those seem to work ok on 1) Darshan600 on "Unread Posts" http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/unread-posts/page/3/#post-3748 Mon, 22 Jun 2009 19:55:23 +0000 Darshan600 3748@http://bbpress.org/plugins/ Hi - I have your BBpress plugin at <a href="http://www.spreadtraderpro.com/bbpress" rel="nofollow">http://www.spreadtraderpro.com/bbpress</a> I'm not a coder so I wou;d be interested if someone would give me a price to add a small icon where posts are unread. deseo76 on "Unread Posts" http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/unread-posts/page/2/#post-3675 Mon, 15 Jun 2009 07:56:41 +0000 deseo76 3675@http://bbpress.org/plugins/ Hello, Great plugin like the rest you've made _ck_ ! I would like to ask you something... Is there a possibility of adding an icon in a different column when a topic is unread and when a forum includes unread topics? And if so, how can I do this? In fact I am not so familiar with all this coding but I really try :P sclough on "Unread Posts" http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/unread-posts/page/2/#post-3514 Wed, 27 May 2009 16:34:29 +0000 sclough 3514@http://bbpress.org/plugins/ This is a great plugin, but I noticed the "Mark All Read" is seeming to work backwards. If I click it once, it marks what was previously read as unread. I click it another time and it works correctly. Has anyone else noticed this? It's pretty consistent behavior for me. renkei on "Unread Posts" http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/unread-posts/page/2/#post-3417 Thu, 14 May 2009 08:52:36 +0000 renkei 3417@http://bbpress.org/plugins/ how i can do to mark topic as unread if i didn't post in ? _ck_ on "Unread Posts" http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/unread-posts/page/2/#post-3384 Sat, 09 May 2009 10:59:48 +0000 _ck_ 3384@http://bbpress.org/plugins/ There are two colors indicating two different things. There is a lighter blue indicating truly unread posts. However if a user is new or you "mark all read" there is a fallback function that highlights posts that are only new since last login. That was actually a feature request by someone else awhile back. You can disable that.
