Hmmm...guess I'll have to live with that.

I've been using phpBB for the longest time, but it's hard to negotiate using it with wanting to support standards and clean code.  I'm just used to when something is marked as unread and then you read it, it's no longer marked unread.

Since punbb just marks the ones since your last visit, it's more difficult to use - I could go through 20 new posts and then have no way of tracking what I have and have not read/replied to (except by checking and/or memory).

Oh, well.  It's a small thing.

This is strange.  I've just started up a new forum, which is fine.  Got a new style created over the course of the night and I'm happy with everything.  Except one thing.

Every time a new post comes up (even if I posted it) it's marked as [ new posts ] with the unread post icon.  I'll open it, then browse to another page - and it's still showing that the post is new.  The only way to get rid of it is by clicking mark all posts read, which kind of defeats the purpose of being able to see what you've missed.

Any help?

(OK, it's doing it on here, too...a bug?  Intentional?)
