Problem with forum sessions?

Post by spacefish »

My habit is to come to MM and click on View Posts Since Last Visit. For the past couple of days, doing this returns a list that only works for one post thereafter the new posts, even if I've only clicked the Back button, get marked as read (though not by me) -OR- I'll enter the forum, see that new posts are indicated but when I click the View... Since Last Visit link, I get a message that there are no new posts. This is making it very difficult to browse the forums.

Has something changed in the site or the forum version recently? I'm familiar with phpBB forums and this is the only one where I've ever seen this behavior.

I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.6, cookies enabled and all that.

Edit: It appears as if only the first call in the session is corrupted. If I stay here for any length of time when posts are made, I can view them as I normally would (by clicking View Posts...).

same here i been getting different things when i go to reply it says the images i picked to submit with were wrong,? and when i look it has kicked me out of the forum when i clicked the submit button.

maybe rusty is getting his hosting site ready and that might be causing the errors? its been 3 almost 4 months now since mm3 was released so the new sites might be getting very close to being released?

It seems to be working as expected this morning. Weird.

I got randomly logged out today and all new posts were marked as read. Quite annoying!

It might have something to do with using 2 computers, I haven't used my other computer to login into the forum for a few days and it has been fine.

As soon as i used the other PC it logged me out after the first post I read :(

Or it's spat the dummy again :(

Totally agreed. I came back from holiday only to find that I can't actually use the "Go to first new post" links because the forum thinks there aren't any more. I haven't logged in for 4 days. According to the links at the bottom, there are supposed to be 6 pages of threads with unread posts. Clicking page 2 however tells me there aren't anymore. Grrrrrr. :evil:

Aaargh.

Was doing a quick browse after checking a reply notification.

Everything going fine, checked out about 5 new posts in beta, and then switched to Off Topic. Suddenly could not get rid of new posts flag on topics.

Tried Help. Same problem.

Logged out and Logged back in checking remember me (again). Suddenly there were no new posts in any of the forums (wrong).

Psigh.

Edit: And am back to "sticky" new posts flag.

Bump. This is getting really old really fast. I try to keep up to date with the forums as a way of learning and occasionally to provide some help. I depend on the new post state to make this an efficient process.

Is it a cookie thing?

It would be really nice if the devs (or whoever maintains the forum) would take a look at this. Maybe there's a new phpBB version?

FWIW. I have been checking out the Ubuntu 8.04 LiveCD with FF3b5 and absolutely no extensions or browser history / cookies this morning. Run down the checklist and just use if for a few hours before updating any systems for real.

Happened to pop over to the forum after a reply notification showed up in gmail. After logging in the forum seemed to look and act about the way it should. Definitely not seeing the problem with read posts topics staying flagged as new posts available.

Will try cleaning cookies later on WXP/FF2. Also test via IE7. See if that helps.
