I've been noticing a weird problem for months now in the forum.

The forum hasn't been updating to say who is online or invisible or when there are new posts in the boards. It doesn't say anything for me. For new posts, I can only tell if there is when I look at the far right to see when the last post was made. For users, even though I"m online (and others probably are too), it's not showing up that me or anyone else is online, and it's not stating if there are any invisible users either.

It keeps saying it's 0 users and 0 guests for me, and the icon that says a board has new posts keeps showing that there is no posts even though there were new posts as indicated on the far right when you see the last user who posted.

Does anyone else have this issue? Please tell me I'm not the only one.


EDIT: It looks like it's mostly only certain boards and categories that do this. Also, when you click on them, you see all the threads that have new posts in them that have the new post icon.

........I feel like I might be going crazy or something............. ._____.

It's been well over a year. IIRC, it happened at the same time as the upgrade to the site.


Also, in forums, when it does show the "new posts," the button doesn't work, either, unless it's a new post since you came to the board.

I thought so, but I wasn't sure. I guess something must've happened when they upgraded the site or something. :/

Yeah, I noticed that because while I was still online, I noticed that the new post icon showed up in the Talkback section when someone was replying to a thread there. Very strange indeed. :/
