I don't know if you guys ever noticed this.

Yesterday I clicked the 'unread topics' link, and quite a few appeared, including some on Bakhtananda.


I did not view them, whereas today I clicked again with an intention to read them, but now I received the following message:

 No unread topics found since your last visit. Click here to try all unread topics.

This bug is a nuisance since I cannot trace now all the new topics. It usually works all right, not this time though and I have no idea why it didn't.

Have an idea and suggestion. Perhaps after you press 'unread topics' and are given those topics the command assumes the information has been given and no longer needs to be given regardless of whether the topics have been read or not. Otherwise the command would  force you to read or glance at the topics that you may not be interested in and continue to give you the info would also be annoying.

However there are many features on this forum. The one you are speaking about is one i do not use. Instead when i am interested in  recent topics i press 'recent topics' at the bottom of the forum under 'forum stats'. i find it a very helpful feature since there are many headings and i can easily find the new posts in the last few days. i can glance over all them several times and press any of them i may want to read again.

Hope that is helpful,

Steve, I was not familiar with the 'view recent posts' command you are speaking about, it sure comes handy.

Now maybe I sort of understand what happened. (I take it back)

After having browsed the most recent posts following Steve's suggestion, I came across the Bakhtananda posts, dated 20 August.

So maybe a visit is meant to be a visit in the list of recent unviewed posts, if I open the list then the list empties.

Whereas  the 'show new replies to your posts' list does not empty until I answer.

I Will confirm tor deny that.
