I've just started to use Speedball 2 on one of my forums, and I've noticed since changing over, it's not counting how many people have read the new topics.
For example:
http://www.mortioli.co.uk/forums/forum.asp?forum_id=2
The top 3 topics have no reads next to them, but the others (before changing) do, and they update once read.
I'm now using a MySQL DB, so would this be the cause? |

Structurally speaking, Speedball a duplicate of the original Snitz, so it shouldn't be a code problem. Can't think why its not counting the reads in those forums as, as far as I am aware, it isn't a configurable option. |

Yep, most likely. How did you do the conversion?
Easy way to fix this is to go in and set a default value of 0 for the T_VIEW_COUNT field in the FORUM_TOPICS table. |

I converted using the hosts control panel, so not sure how exactly.
I've attempted to set the value to 0, but it won't save for some reason, so I've contacted the host.
I noticed this at the bottom of the page, and just thought I'd post it to see if I should have these or not:
Indices Index Name Indexed column Primary Key Unique Action aaaaaFORUM_TOPICS_PK CAT_ID True True delete aaaaaFORUM_TOPICS_PK FORUM_ID True True delete aaaaaFORUM_TOPICS_PK TOPIC_ID True True delete Topic_ID TOPIC_ID False True delete {5DB0DADA-07CD-4557-A125-F8E7E7892D5E} T_AUTHOR False False delete {83D30317-27DF-4001-8144-74F3D12C59BF} CAT_ID False False delete {83D30317-27DF-4001-8144-74F3D12C59BF} FORUM_ID False False delete CAT_ID CAT_ID False False delete Forum_id FORUM_ID False False delete
EDIT - Sorry, it's MS SQL ...not sure if that's much different, I'm not clued up on the whole SQL thing
Would this be causing anything? |

The preferred method of conversion is to let Snitz create all the tables in your new MS SQL DB and then simply import the database, I think it would be fairly safe to say that becuase you've used another method to upgrade your DB that this is whats causing your issues now. |
