Change in the forum software?

[allheart55 (Cindy E)]

I am not having any problems with it either but I think both Rusty and Liz are.

 

[AWS]

It has to be a currpt cookie or old jscript isn't flushed out of the cache.

 

[plodr]

Yes. In fact since I don't use the other browsers and clean history of Vivaldi every time I close it, I suspect there is no browser cache.

I've also shut odd uBlockOrigin and allowed everything in noscript. Neither made a difference.

Today I was at 34 and marking all forums read lowered it to 30.

 

[plodr]

I disabled the theme I was using - no change. I checked cookies at two spots and they expire at the end of the session so when I log out, they should be gone.
I've opened and closed my browser quite a few times and I've clear the browser cache - again.

I'm now stuck at 34. And I suspect it will just keep increasing. If I mark forums read it lowers 1 or 2 but still higher than when I left.

 

[AWS]

Did the domain change fix it?

This is strange. I'm going to unistall it and reinstall to see if that helps.

 

[Tony D]

I just noticed that there is no option to indent text in a post. Don't know if the old software had that option.

 

[plodr]

Domain change did not fix it. I started just now at 43 and was able to lower it to 37but I can't ever get it lower than my previous session.

This si the address I get for the Mark forums read

https://freepchelp.forum/f/-/mark-read?date=1514422209

Not sure about the significance of the date=

Try this link. It looks lie you are marking read in the past by a few days.

I'm having the same problem. I also tried the AWS link but it didn't help. I'm using FF in windows 7 premium.

 

[plodr]

Your link didn't help.
My mark forums read now shows as

https://freepchelp.forum/f/-/mark-read?date=1514490656

so it is changing but not ever going to zero and always higher than the day before even after it is supposed to be back to zero.
Here's what I saw when I arrived (start)
and after going through frontpage news, quite a few forums and marking things read, here's where I ended up (end).
With clicking mark forums read, etc. The count stayed at 44 no matter how many times I clicked the mark forums read.
I log out when I leave and I tried my 64 bit computer with Waterfox. I have the same problem on that.

I've looked at my profile so many times trying to figure out if I need to change something to fix this.

I might sign up under a nym I use elsewhere, zlim, and see if I have the same problem. If not, I'll then compare plodr's profile to zlim's and see if I can fix it.

 

[allheart55 (Cindy E)]

It's not just you, Liz.
Several members are having a problem with it.
Bob is looking into it.

 

[plodr]

Okay, thanks Cindy.
I'll hold off on creating another user name.

 

[AWS]

Try it now. There was a new version that is supposed to fix this bug.

 

[Katrina]

Works fine, Bob!

 

[plodr]

YAY!!! I now see zero.

I was never so happy to see nothing in a long, long time.

 

[N3]

Hooray! It's fixed for me also!

 

[Rustys]

Yea it reads zero here as well.
