'Last Post' bug [#222706]

I could have sworn I submitted an issue report on this two days ago, but I can't find it now.

I am running the latest dev snap shot and have a problem where the 'lasp post' title is not displayed on the forum index page. The poster and post time are displayed fine, but the title is just a blank space (or in the case of posts that were pre-existing before installing this version of advance forum, the post titles that used to be the 'last post' are stuck there).

It is harder to explain than to demonstrate. The issue is also happening on the demo forum linked from the module page. I made a post on your demo forums and you can see from the forum index that my username (thepaul) and the time of my post show up, but the title is blank.

Yep, you did... http://drupal.org/node/222212

I saw it but I'm bogged down in the 6 port right now.

For what its worth:

removing the cache checking ie:

 if (!$reset && ($cache = cache_get('advanced_forum_lasttopic'.$tid)) && !empty($cache->data)) {
   $topic = unserialize($cache->data);

in advanced_forum_get_last_topic

seems to resolve the issue, though now no caching is taking place so that can't be a good thing. I would try to fix this, but have no idea how this caching scheme works (I'm sure that's obvious).

I'll try to read up on it.

Yeah, it was the first time I ever used caching so I figured I had something wrong. Just don't have time to fix it right now. Trying to get get the D6 port done and backported to D5.
