Forum icons not updating properly
« on: March 14, 2014, 05:55:47 pm »
Lately the icons next to the board names (for example, 'Official news,' 'Ideas and suggestions,' 'Talks and Yaks') have been showing up with the "New Posts" icon even when there are no unread posts and when I click the board names the orange "new" icon is next to topic names that I've already read and often when I have the most recent comment/reply.

If I click the "Unread Posts" link or the "Show unread posts since last visit" link by my profile pic, I'll get the message "No unread topics found since your last visit. Click here to try all unread topics." and when I click "Click here to try all unread topics." I get "No messages..." so clearly I've already read all of the topics.

I just clicked "Unread Posts", then "Click here to try all unread topics." and got "No messages..." and when I clicked the orange "Home" button I'm seeing this:

And now that I've created this new topic I'm seeing what's below.


I don't know if this is linked to the odd way that the wiki is displaying the sidebar on the latest version of Chrome or not, but when I checked IE it had the same thing showing until I opened each topic again. It may be a problem with Chrome not passing something to the forum server properly.

Looks like they're experimenting just a bit too much lately with the "stable" versions!

I'm currently on version 33.0.1750.146 m, but now that I'm looking it's trying to update. What version are you using Zen?

Hi Jarrod,
             I've been using the same version as you, and mine also updated when I went to the About page again, and is now 33.0.1750.149

I use IE and I've noticed lately that after I make a post it will show unread.

I must be super lucky that Chrome and IE both cause no problems :)

I'm using IE 11 on my PCs too, but only as a backup browser. I'm writing this using IE 11 now as a test but it seemed to be working fine for me. Very strange.

Yes Zen, you must be Mr. Lucky Pants! 8-D

Nope, it's still showing me the New Posts icon until I click the topic again in IE. But at least opening it in IE makes it go to No New Posts. With Chrome I have to try it a bunch of times before it happens.

I'm not sure if the devs made some kind of change to the site, but it seems to be clearing the new posts better now (though still not quite perfectly).
