Only get "No unread posts" message

by Gillford » Mon May 27, 2019 1:12 am

I'm running phpBB 3.2.5, PHP 7.2.16

When I hover over the topic, the message "No unread posts" pops up, unless I haven't read the topic, then it changes to "Unread posts". This is exactly what happens with the extension disabled. Is there some sort of incompatability with another extension? I'd like to keep this feature and could use some help diagnosing the problem.

There may be an incompatibility with the "Mark Posts Unread" extension and the . Unfortunately, when I disabled the "Mark Posts Unread" extension, it killed my entire site, so I can't be sure. I'd like to ask if anyone has "Topic Preview" and "Mark Posts Unread" working together.

I also only get "No Unread posts" when using this extension, regardless of Style used. Everything is on from what I can see.

It doesn't for me? What style did you use? Could a browser addon be causing issues?

I just went to your site. It doesn't work, obviously, on the post you have that is just a youtube bbcode. But the other couple toipcs I saw with text worked just fine.

Wow, I feel like a right tit, I must have literally always been using that same topic :( Sorry to waste your time!

Mabye a suggestion, if it can't show it because it say only uses an embedded video or similar it could say "Unable to show preview" rather than "No unread posts"?

I get that "No unread post" or "Unread posts" mouse hoover when the subject line contains other characters then a-z
The Topic Preview Ext does not seem to like "&" or "/" in the subject. Is my assumption correct?
I see that here: http://www.sjofart.net/viewforum.php?f=3

Ah, now I see! The first two only contains links in the first post!
And that blocks the Topic Preview, no matter how long the topic is.
Can that be solved?

It doesn't matter how long your topic is. This only shows content of the first and last post. When your first posts only contain a link, there isn't anything to show in the preview.

Sorry, I do not understand.
If the first post contains a link, but the whole topic has lets say 25 posts, the Ext shows no preview?

Sorry, I think I am stupid, I still do not understand (VERY sorry!)
A link in the first post blocks all preview for a topic?
In my case, only the first post contains a link, all answers in the topic are normal text only.
Why shouldnt there be any preview? What is the reason?

Thank you for your patience!
