With reference to: viewtopic.php?f=46&t=2298066

Maybe an old post, but Google brought me here.
I have exactly the same problemen, latest version op phpBB 3.1.
It started about 2 updates ago, but the files are fine (checked).

Any solutions?
Yes, it sounds like a database-problem. Tried to recalculate everything via admin. Didnt fix.
Yes, its on larger topics (20 pages or more, but also on 'old topics' with 800 pages).

Please describe your problem. The 'view first unread post' links seem to be broken, for all users, Moderators and Admin. They will land on an older page, rather than the most recent post. By contrast, the 'view latest post' icon does work reliably however.

Do you use a caching service such as Cloudflare as this, if it is not configured correctly could be the cause of this type of problem.

This seems to happen on 3.2 as well, which was migrated from 3.0.11 which showed the same symptoms.

On topics with a large amount of posts, the &view=unread doesn't jump to the correct page, the post icons on that page are all normal, and are marking the unread posts correctly starting on the first unread post. Meaning that, the post icon show the correct behaviour, but the page to jump to is the wrong one.

This seem to be a long standing issue, is there any solution for it ?

Post it in the Bug Tracker - if it is not already there.

While writing the bug report I found what the issue is.

This is the browser caching working, it shows on the network tab that it is reading the page from the disk and not from the network.

So it will use the redirect it had previously cached.

Is there anyway to bypass cache for these urls ?
