adamlacombe Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I just had a question for you guys. I am building a forum script and I'm currently stumped on the "show unread posts since last visit" feature. Not sure as to how to code it. Should I be using a mysql database to keep track of them or use cookies some how? Thanks in advanced!

jcbones Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 You should be logging the last time the member requested a page, then just check for (member_last_page_request < time_of_post).
