Today I have MyBB 1.8.10 and the (annoying issue) is still here.
Any help would be much appreciated.
PS: A couple of years ago, I knew a guy who had this problem on phpBB and solved it by tweaking the permissions but I do not know what de did exactly, besides phpBB is another forum software. But that might be a hint.

Quote:How to reproduce:
If you have new posts in a subforum, go into it, read them, return to the frontpage. The toplevel forum should be read, too. But returning to the frontpage shows again the icon for unread posts. Now enter the forum again. Nothing new in there. So again return to the frontpage without doing anything. Now the icon changed to no new posts. Thought of a cache problem, but this happens only with forums that have childs.
