I’ve noticed over the few days that the forum isn’t quite behaving correctly. In particular returning to the last read post and the unread counts. I suspect the two issues are related.
For example.
I was up to date on the Reel to Reel thread yesterday. Note the unread message count.
When I enter the thread I am directed to the beginning of the thread rather than my last read post which would probably have been 12 hours ago. Also note that the whole thread has only 43 posts, way different to the 166 unread posts that the previous page was showing.
Chrome on a Windows desktop and also Safari on IOS.
It’s not all posts, only a few and the common denominator seems to be that the unread post count is way off on posts that don’t return you to the correct position, like the example I posted where the unread count is more than the total number of posts in the entire thread. That post count will be being generated by the application hosted on the server which I expect is the crux of the issue.
I’ll try another browser not used before when I see it happen again, currently there are none that fit this criteria.
On the longer threads, mine isn’t loading up anything. On an iPad which I have gone through the usual trouble shooting.
Although everything seems fine on the iPhone.
First thing to try is closing Safari and restarting it. If that doesn’t fix it then you could clear the Safari cache.
You could also install another browser like Chrome and see whether that works. You will need to sign in again if you clear the Safari cache or use a new browser.
