Thanks.

Any idea of an ETA of a fix?

Okay.  I don't know how to write an extension.

Thank you though.

I have access to the SQL db directly... is it stored in a field there, or is that information generated dynamically?

Maybe this functionality already exists and I missed it somewhere?

I worry that if I lower the value so much as to make it useful, some people who might spend an hour composing a post might lose it by being logged out.

"timeout visit value"

Is that the "Visit Timeout" value?  That value says that it is "Seconds idle before user is logged out".

My users wanted this value extremely high (I put it to like 30 days or something) so that they don't get automatically logged out daily.

Is there a different way other than lowering this value to 30 minutes to have the 'new posts' page work again?

In the past, it automatically updated the 'last visit' --- why is it manual now?

Register.

View the forum (just hit the active topics link and middle-click the first 10-20 or so)

Close browser.

Wait a while for new topics - a few hours is probably plenty.

Click the 'new posts' link.  In theory, it would only show you topics that have posts that you have not already seen.

However, all the old posts you previously view that do not have new topics will still be in the list.

Thanks!

I'll be sure to let you know if they still get through...

You are right, I can't register with that email --- because that spammer (Shohel1) already exists on our system.

Is there a spam blocking solution that works for 1.4 for keeping out spam registrations?   Human test questions, captchas,  not allowing numbers in the email address or username, etc?

I dont' understand -- if they were 'detected' why were they allowed to register and post links on my forum?
