seksislav Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Hey everybody, Its been a while now since I've needed help ( except of the phpThumbs thread a made some days ago ) and now I'm having trouble understanding how one thing is working. So ... what my trouble is that I have NO clue how the people that write forums for example deal with the you have/have not seen this thread. I dont really know how they follow if someone has visited some topic or if its new of the specific user. I really dont think they flag something up in some table. Its ridicules to think that a table can handle thousand of user to check it someone has read or not something. Cookies ... ? nope dont think cookies can help. Can anybody give me a hint? Thanks in advance! Regards Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/183307-how-would-you-make-this/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
.josh Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 For "new threads", all you really have to do is select threads where thread 's timestamp is > user's last login/activity timestamp.

seksislav Posted November 29, 2009 Author Share Posted November 29, 2009 Yeah, but I dont think forums work like this. For example if I log on this forum tomorrow I'll see several threads marked as "new". If I read one topic I'll get the new flag off only for that topic. Not all of them.
