[closed] bug/error: New Posts

[SimpleSi]

I've struggled with the changes recently and have waited to see if things have settled down but I'm regularly not seeing replies to posts I'm involved with and I now have to manually check each thread to see if any replies have arrived as I can't trust new posts to show them.

 

It seems to hide my subscribed posts if it thinks I've read them and doesn;t even show them up "below the line".

 

My most recent example of problems was a post i made in the joomla thread - when I clicked on new posts some minutes later - Sysman's reply was already below the line evne though I definitely hadn't looked at new posts since I'd posted.

 

I don't like going backwards but the old system worked for me a lot better that the new one.

regards

Simon

I've been putting up too. Sorry ZH - I much preferred the old system where I didn't have pages of unread posts to clear down at regular intervals.

 

Marking everything as read is OK, but that marks everything - including today - clicking on the link on the line between "new since my last visit" and older new posts just marks everything as read. (not everything below the line)

Thanks for the feedback. I must admit myself I liked the session method personally where if you closed your browser they were then assumed read.

I assume this is the system you both mean? aka the system that was in place from the start of secondus

That's the one... the original worked better for me!

 

Both systems are an improvement on the old site though.

 

I just thought I'd wait until someone else said something before I put my two-penn'orth in.

 

Perhaps we need a poll about reverting? Although, your the one doing the site - so maybe your vote counts for more anyway

Right its now set to the way it was originally.

We will see how it goes now

Hi I'm having problems accessing the new posts link to display all the new posts.

 

Using firefox 3 and tried logging out and logging in again but its still the same. It states that there are no new posts in the last 24 hours. I have manually checked some clearly there are new posts so looks like there is some kind of issues on new posts link.
