Site hack
 

Rob,
One feature got lost in the recent hack - it used to show how many threads and posts were unread. I found that info really helpful. Now the thread is just bolded, no # info.

Thanks!

unread posts
 

is this issue being looked into? very difficult to catch missed threads/posts without it.... Thanks

Is it fixed now ?

Re: unread posts
 

Yep,now it's showing the unread threads/posts in red parentheses again.

Re: unread posts
 

Each one of those red numbers involves a number of queries to the database [for each user, each page, each thread, each post, etc], which equates to load...when the trojans got planted they hammered the site which generated a ton of extra queries and crashed the server. The server guys freaked, and wanted a bunch of the extra queries eliminated...so I can't guarantee that the unread post indicators will stay.

Thanks! I find them to be one of the better features of this forum software.

Appreciate you folks maintaining this great site - I know that it's not easy!
