Title: Important note concerning PMs
Post by FalconFly on 09.05.10 at 20:05:06
Hi all...

It seems the current YaBB installation has or had a nasty bug that will prevent new PMs from being displayed correctly.

I apparently already missed a few due to that bug (sorry folks), so at this time I can only advise to regularly clean your PM folders and manually check on them.

If you ever see something like "Good evening, [your Username], you have xx Messages, -1 are new" - it means you got the bug.

Workaround :
If no new message is visible in your PM folder, delete an older one. That apparently temporarily fixes the PM count and the new PM becomes visible.

-- edit --
I've given the Board the full internal maintenance workover, hopefully that helps.

-- edit 2 --
If you ever see that again, please post here into the Thread, so I can rerun maintenance functions when needed.
