That's because it's not new to you. You were just in that thread posting. It will show as new to everyone else.

Are you saying before the update your own posts would show as new to you?

Here is another thread with some specific info. http://classicbroncos.com/forums/showthread.php?t=279724

It used to be that if you posted in a thread it still came up with the "all latest threads" function. Now it just goes away until someone else posts in that thread. I am now showing 18 pages of unread threads that go all the way back to July instead of threads that have been active in the last day or so.

I am guessing after a day or two of the forum being back online and active some of this will sort itself out. But I liked the functionality of going to the home page and clicking "all latest active threads" and having the most recent threads with activity pop up. Made it super easy to go back and spellcheck, grammar check, make sure I wasn't posting something stupid. etc...

Oh, and thanks for all the hard work Jon. Not sure how you do it. I have pulled this more than once when faced with a piece of technology that wouldn't cooperate. Problem solved...;D

Since the 'upgrade' you now need to manually mark the forums as read if you want them to stop showing in the new posts search results.

Use the pull down quick links menu.

Garage doesn't work since the update...
Right. See my list on the fist post in this thread. Unfortunately the software developer for the Garage no longer supports their product or answers emails. So it may take me some time to track down a solution.

Totally missed that. Sux. But what can you do
