The forum has changed!

Thanks, Possegal! I never used to have to do that so didn't even think of it. I will give it a try.

I really haven't been following this thread, so apologies if someone has posted before, but sometimes when I post a quick reply, I will get the error message "do you really want to navigate away from this page?" It's intermittent and I haven't identified anything that says when it will do that and when it won't. I'm on MacOS 10.6.8 and Firefox 15.0.1.

ETA - it did it this time. ;)

Emily,

New posts since your last visit are at the top of page 1 - everything after the "threads below" marker can be ignored. Unless I'm misunderstanding something, you shouldn't have to go on page-after-page ???

In the old forum, that would only show me threads with new posts since my last visit. Now, in addition (and following) those, I get a whole slew of posts under "The threads below have not been updated since your last visit but still contain unread posts." Is there any way to turn that off. If I didn't read them before, I don't want to read 'em this time around either. It makes my "new posts" search go on for page after page.

Minor, I know, but just one of those niggling little changes I don't care for.

Thanks!

It just did it to me, too.

No, you're not misunderstanding. It's just a small annoyance since it never did that before the forum changes that I recall. However, thanks to the tip above, I just did a "mark all read" and it went away. It's just a preference, not a bug at all. Thanks, Jeff, for checking!

Me too -- with Windows 7, Chrome browser. It's after my post goes through successfully, though it doesn't look like it did. If I click "Stay on this page", it then warns me that I can't post again for 45 seconds. But I didn't try to post again. This entire sequence does appear to be some sort of bug with the "Post Quick Reply". Just happened to me above when I posted the reply to Jeff.

OK, I just had that problem, as Emily described. I rarely use the Quick Reply, but I just did.
Using Chrome with Mac 10.8.2

I've had this happen quite a few times in the last couple of days as well. Chrome and Firefox, Windows 7 64-bit if it matters.

Still only get the first page of recent posts and nothing shows up if I click to go to the next page. As a result I miss a lot of recent posts.

Goldfinch, what browser, OS and skin are you using? (ex: IE7, Windows 7, Luburox Blue)

Using Chrome, vB4 default style Serifs.

Do you have javascript enabled in your browser?

Yes. I double checked.

I just went on the forum again and now I am able to see page 2 of the new posts.
