Unread posts button doesn't seem to work

Post by Erika »

Hiya,

In the recent topics list (and in the forums as well) there's always a button to jump to the last unread post of the topic. This one: Image.
Since about a week or so it doesn't work anymore. Clicking that just sends me to the first post of the thread. Even when I just viewed the last post of the thread. Even with threads in which I already have several posts.

Kim is experiencing the same problem. We thought that it might have to do with us logging in on the same computer, that maybe somehow screws up the cookies. BUt funny thing is that until few weeks ago it worked fine, at least uo until the sleepover :oops: . Although with that one we used separate devices. Maybe that screwed it up? But it's still weird, so i thought I'd ask about it.
We didn't do anything with the settings in our browser. At least not that we're aware of.

Funny thing is that on several topics said button doesn't appear. So there it seems it still is working like it should be. For instance: first topic in the Dolls Alive forum where it doesn't appear is this one: http://www.dollforum.com/forum/viewtopi ... 13&t=56598

At this one: http://www.dollforum.com/forum/viewtopi ... 13&t=57201 , the button is still there, even though I just made a post in there. And yeah, I did refresh (several times).
This is my dollalbum, My (identical) twinsister Kim has her own album. We also have our own thread in the 4Woods subforum where we post our pics.

We had another sister Annika, her album also has a lot of pics of me.

I just posted in Linda's introductary thread, and next to that thread the button doesn't appear anymore :? It seems to work rather erratically.

Hi Erika, I have to admit I never use that button :oops:
I'm afraid I can't help. Maybe Alex knows about this - so wait until he pops up :wink:

As a generic solution, did you already try to delete you TDF related cookies and clear your browser's cache?

No, I didn't. Can you do that for separate websites? How do you do that in Firefox? :?

Must be device-related though, coz on this one it seems to work fine.
I have a dollalbum, with loads of nice pics. My twinsister Erika has her own album, which also has some pics of me hanging out with her. We have our own thread where we post our pics. Stop by and say Hi!

Don't forget to take a look at my girlfriend Juliana.

My Lexi visits lots of places. Allison is featuring in her travels. Allison has her own thread too.

In FF, go to Options, Privacy, Remove Individual Cookies (if I translated this correctly from the Dutch version: Opties, Privacy, Individuele Cookies Verwijderen).

OK. Tnx. I looked over that one. :oops: Even with your directions I had to look twice to find it. :oops:
This seems to work. Tnx. :thumbs_up:

Edit: obviously all topics are set to unread now, so I gotta reread everything 8O :roll:

I also don't use that specific button, so haven't experienced it.
