forum threads not updating

makarios68 · 03-12-2008, 03:56 PM

i click on a thread to see the last posts made there and i can't view them.

i know there are more posts there but they won't load for me to view.

anyone know why?

Try this:

-Delete your cookies. No, no the ones that you can find in the kitchen, I'm talking about the browser. :P

-Mark all posts as read.

-Suscribe to all posts, but watch for the updates just in the control panel. That way you won't have any problems. To change your settings, go to the control panel, then to Edit Options and select "Watch for updates in the control panel" or something like that.

That should work :P

OK this is getting really irritating - i cannot read new posts in the forums.

When i go into "new posts" i see a message saying "The threads below have not been updated since your last visit but still contain unread posts."

But when i click on one i go to the last post i read and can't see the new ones.

Maybe i've clicked something i shouldn't have which is stopping the threads updating.

Suggestions please...
