Hi Chris,
FYI, I see from my RSS feed that there have been a few comments in the last week or two from new members who haven’t been approved. They seem legit. Would you mind nodding these through? Cheers!

Also, some of the replies even from existing members don’t seem to show up in the “Recently Active Topics”. E.g. I could read DD Bw’s topic via the RSS feed and his or her post from today shows up in the actual thread but not in the “Recently Active Topics”:

Seems like there are a few funky things going on with the forum. In the topic “iPad Mini and Outling” it shows on the Topics page that Franz was the latest poster on November 5, but if you go to the end actual topic, you’ll see Tom’s post from November 6 is the last post listed (as of my writing this posting).

I think I’ve gotten all the previously unapproved members approved now.
There is a bug I haven’t sorted out yet with the “latest post by” - this currently only updates for already approved members. If a non-approved member posts to a thread, it does not update that status, and if I then approve them it still doesn’t update.
Thanks,
Chris

Thanks for that, Chris.

It would be good if after the approval the new members’ posts would come up as new in the Recently Active Topics, as at the moment they get slotted into the old threads, so unless one subscribes to the RSS feed, one wouldn’t know new posts have been added.
