Can you get a screen shot and post it?

Mine (Firefox) doesn’t change the “yellow” unread post marker from posts or the forums after I’ve read the new stuff.
To get them to change, I have to refresh the web page which then recognizes I’ve read them and then I can go on to other new posts. My iPhone does the same thing 😑
Hope that helps.

It has been that way for some time and if i remember correctly it was noted by a few others but its been a good while back.......i just always know ive read it.
.when i sign in i go through every forum but engine never shows its read.. no biggie, just curious.
Edit... i just went through all forums and every one of them show read except the engine forum.
Not sure how my server would cause just that one to be like that but I'll have my IT neighbor take a look.

BUT, if you ever saw the insides of the "permissions" page, there are 27 categories to set, with nine possibilities for each of them. These two: "min time between posts" and "delete post time limit" are the most bizarre. The first one is: "can see forum." Hmmm ... what are we doing here then.

Let me know if that changed anything for you all. If it doesn't, we'll have to dig further down in the tool box.
