When there are several new posts in a topic and I use the arrow to go to the last post I get the next situation.
It goes to the newest post where I stopped reading as is correct. When the there is a new page though, and I read it too, in the category it still says there are new posts. When I hit the arrow again it goes to the next page, which I had read already but it doesn't seem to "see" that I was there already.

Can you try to replicate the issue with 2.7.7RC1?

I am able to replicate this on my installation of FUDforum which is almost latest CVS.

Did you have already a look at this issue, Ilia?

I installed FUDforum from latest cvs and created one additional user (I also lowered the number of messages per page so that I have to make less test messages).

Then I made a topic with a lot of test messages so that it consisted of three pages and logged off and logged in as the other user. I clicked on the arrow that brings you to the last unread message and I got the first page of the topic. I clicked trough all pages of the topic, went back to topic listing, clicked the arrow again (it is still there although I have read the whole topic) and I got the second page of the topic.

Have you been able to reproduce the issue or is there something I could help with?

I've seen this many times, but I'm not certain how I fixed it or if it simply went away on its own. Try consistency check. Also try mark all messages as read.

I am always a bit uncertain what to do in case Ilia doesn't answer, but in the meantime I have looked into this issue a bit. Thank you for bringing this up again.

My assumption is that this has something to do with the fact that URLs for the next pages in a thread always contain "prevloaded=1". But the messages are only marked as read if prevloaded is not set, please see the following code from msg.php:

<?php
    if 
(!isset($_GET['prevloaded'])) {
        while (@ob_end_flush());
        th_inc_view_count($frm->id);
        if (_uid && $obj2) {
            if ($frm->last_forum_view < $obj2->post_stamp) {
                user_register_forum_view($frm->forum_id);
            }
            if ($frm->last_view < $obj2->post_stamp) {
                user_register_thread_view($frm->id, $obj2->post_stamp, $obj2->id);
            }
        }
    }
?>

I have noticed a similar problem in my installation. If I go to a topic that has new replies from the forum index, and then page through it from within the topic, it still shows up as having new replies even though I just paged through them all.

JanRei, thanks for pointing out the arrow that takes you to the first unread post. I hadn't even noticed that!

Even if you page to the last page of the topic?

Yes, if I page to it from within viewing the thread.

I haven't tracked it extensively but it might only happen if new posts were made onto the thread after I had started reading it but before I got to the last page.

I don't think that it is related to other users posting new messages because I could reproduce the problem on a forum where only I have access to.

Ilia, could it have something to do with the "prevloaded=1" in the URLs as I described above?

Yes it would, prevloaded parameter indicates that the page has been loaded before and causes skippage of the mark-read code.

So this part of the URL of the page links should be removed to solve the problem, shouldn't it?
