    read threads showing as unread threads

    There is two threads on my forum that are showing up as being unread with new posts, but I have clicked on each one ten times, and it still shows it. There is a link beside the title of each of the two threads that says "go to first new post" and I do that too, but it still shows as unread.

    How can I fix it to show as read?

    Set this:

    Admin CP -> vBulletin Options -> General Settings -> Thread/Forum Read Marking Type -> Database (automatic forum marking)

    The first time you set this all posts will show up as unread because the database marking is new. Once you mark the forums as read everything will work fine.

      Thanks steve,

      Some how before I got notice of this, it worked itself out this morning when I got on. I will keep this information for future reference.
