Not showing last poster on forum homepage when making replies in a sticky thread

I have a sticky thread in a forum and when making replies in it. No last poster is listed on forum home for that forum. Even if it doesn't display last poster - but last thread instead posted. That sticky was last topic added and isn't being listed?

Been that way for many days with nothing showing for last poster on forum home.

I just have not bothered reporting it until now

I think... if I was to add another topic on that forum (as last post) that isn't a sticky it would show something. It seems to be linked with the last topics added being a sticky

Well for the sake of it now I'll post a test topic on that forum that isn't a sticky and see if it shows up last poster. With it being last topic added after that sticky

That worked.

That being said. I just started another test topic on an empty forum and posted it as a sticky. That worked OK showing the last poster on forumhome. For some silly reason it seems linked with just that one forum in question.

OK something odd is going on. I just removed that test post now to get a last poster displayed on forum home for that forum (that worked). But now I just removed the sticky for that other post and still it doesn't show a last poster (with that test post now gone). So it doesn't have anything to do with it being a sticky before then.

I can create a new topic on that forum and it will show last poster for it. Just not with the other topic that was added before it ages ago.

What details do you need to look at that sticky thread and see what is going on with it

I have submitted a ticket with details because can see it's also happening on this forum as well that has a sticky post on it. And funny enough both forums also have sub-forums (one is a hidden staff sub forum) on the one below

EDIT: Just to add I'm also seeing the same thing with those two forums on my WAMP install of BB as well using different MySQL and PHP versions than live server. So it happened on two installs.

Did you get the ticket I sent because in My Account I'm not seeing any ticket logged you might respond to?

I've never sent a ticket before so not sure if it should be listed a ticket or not.

Quote from Sherrie

I tested it in one of my stickies and my post showed as last post.

Don't think it has anything to do with stickies.

Just saying it seems odd that both forums it's happened on have a sticky topic and a sub-forum

One of the staff is logged in at my forum now looking at it and they seem to have got a last post displayed now for both formums without adding another new topic. So looks like they found out what the issue is.

That is funny because at one point I had both German and English languages installed and used all the multilingualism features as activated in admin cp. But later I removed the German language and disabled all multilingualism features in admin cp because thought they was only used if having two languages installed.

Further more, no topic (as far as I'm aware) was ever added by me using German language because I can't write German. So not sure why it would hide those replies added in a differnt language I'm choosing not to read. The forum only has English language installed now for quite a while, German was removed (uninstalled).

If you look under languages on my forum you'll see there is only English language installed now.
