    New Post results are wrong....

    The forum is http://www.v-nation.com/forums/

    It shows threads as new that you have already read and no new posts have been made.

    As well, every time you post in a thread it shows up as new even though you just posted the last message in it.

    As well, it shows new threads as bold and old ones as not... Is there a way to simply only show the new threads?

    thanks for any assistance.

    Set this:

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

    And this:

    Admin CP -> vBulletin Options -> General Settings -> Database Read Marking Limit

    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.
