At the home page, I see there have been 21 posts since my last logon:
But when I click on it, I get the message:
UPDATE After I posted this question, it still showed 21 new posts, but when I clicked it, this one new one showed up. I suspect it will work fine the next time, but it would be interesting to know if anyone else experienced this. |

Whats not working now, if you enter a forum that supposed to have new posts in it, the indictors that point the threads out with these new posts, are missing. It looks like everything has been read. _________________ Edmund |

Thanks, it's nice to know it isn't just me.
Thanks for the query Vicky that makes it a little less work.

As an experiment, I logged off, cleaned my cache and logged back on. It appeared to cure the problem, but I won't know for sure until there is more activity. MaskedMan, you may want to try the same thing. |

I don't know if browsers make any difference, if cache is involved. Personally, I never come in through the front door, so I never see the new post count message. I use Mozilla Firefox.
I always come in using a bookmarked newposts link:
http://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/search.php?search_id=newposts
When I want to look for a recent post, I use the same link as Vicky and I just change the number at the end to how many days back I want to go. _________________ Rob

I use Firefox also. I should have first tried just the logoff / logon to see if that fixed the problem and then if not, cleaned the cache. My hindsight is usually better than my foresight. If it happens again, I can test that.
I now will be using Rob's link as my way in, since I always did the same thing, but with 2 clicks. |

I signed out and cleared the cache on the computer, no one showed up last nght so I could test it.
Now I'm on the webtv which was left alone, and everythings working as it should.
But both were having the same trouble yesterday. _________________ Edmund |

I also have to refresh my cache to see what's new. I hit F5 to do that. No need to logout/login.
Best,
