Do you all use the Default Theme for the forum?

Happens whatever theme I'm on.

Have applied these fixes to our installation. One of them seems to fix the bug Chris reported, and which we had anyway hacked a solution to by disabling visibility of deleted posts to non-mod users, so I don't think it will fix Max's problem. The other - I'm not entirely sure that it will fix Max's problem either, but we'll see.

I discovered a bug in the Unread Posts plugin which caused - for logged-in non-mod users - the "last post" link to instead go to first unread post, which might solve part of Max's (and Doppel's) problems. Have reported the bug+solution and fixed it in our installation.

Please everybody let us know in this thread whether you experience this problem again.

Ah I see, great job. We'll see how it turns out.

This is fixed for me now. Thanks.

I would have added (had I remembered it) that this seems to fix the bug that Chuck reported: Last Post Function.
