Unread Posts

Uncle John :

All the time I've been using the Weenie website, I review Unread Posts, by clicking on it on the left side. After I read one I use the browser's (Explorer) back button to go back to the list, which now does not contain the unread post I viewed.

In the last week, when I do this the the page has deleated all unread posts not just the one I just read, as it did before. It never did this before and when it happens I can't bring back ther unread "Unread Posts" list.

Is this a recent change?

Thanks,
Alex

FWIW I have the same problem as Alex with Firefox 6.0.1.

I can find the posts however, going back and clicking the "find all the unread posts" button.

Cheers

Same here - it never used to happen. However, as mentioned you can call up the other unread posts that have apparently disappeared.

I'll pile on here.  I went to Firefox 6.0 the day the Weenie server was updated.  Since then, I've had the problem with unread posts.  Is anyone who's had this problem NOT on Firefox 6.0/6.0.1?

Yep, on good ol IE8 yesterday and today. Particularly vexing yesterday as it was my first visit for a coupla day ... and boom, all gone as soon as I clicked "back" after reading the first one.

Seems to affect every browser then. (I'm using the latest Firefox).

Edit: Didn't happen just now. It seems to be an intermittent problem.

I was able to duplicate the problem yesterday but not this morning. Mysterious. A cookie problem?

I read this thread then clicked BACK button to return to the unread posts page and it was empty. That's the first time it's ever happened on PC or Mac. I'm on the mac today. I clicked a link that said "Try unread" and they came back.

I just tried again visiting an hour later and I'm not seeing the issue now.

Update: the "unread post"s seem to work, at least for now. Go figure.

For about a week now, unread posts hasn't worked for me at all. I'm using safari on a mac. This time unread posts came up, I saw this thread, went to it and when I tried to go back, all unreads were gone. Tried hitting unread post search again and still came up empty. I'm having to search thru the index to find recent posts.

A real pain,
Joe

Tried it again, this time hitting Unread Posts again on the left, instead of hitting the browser Back button.

Same result, all gone, and nothing I tried would bring the list back.

We're looking into it. May need to consult a teenager.

Same thing happens to me -- I'll check it out.  In the meantime after hitting the back button you can click the link "click here to try all unread topics".

click here to try all unread topics/url]
