When I open the gluten free forum and click on view new posts, it tells me that my last visit was on 10/10 and that there are 19 new pages.

In looking at the pages I know that I have seen most of them before, and some of the posts I have responded to.

What's going on?

Is it accurate that you've been here last on the 10th? Even if you have seen the posts themselves before, are you sure there aren't any new replies? Because every time there is a reply, it is viewed as a new post, because you haven't seen the new reply.

Mind you, I have had malfunctions, and there would be posts I had definitely seen in the 'view new posts' list. Even after I clicked on the 'mark all posts as read' link, I sometimes get ones back on that I had seen.

It's been happening to me too. My "last visit" date has been stuck since about the 10th also.

Yeah--my orange buttons are back and have been for a few days, but I have 17 pages of "new posts" and it says my last visit was Oct. 12.

Scott put an upgrade on the board software on Friday the 12th. Since then, there have been problems with this function, mostly things not showing as unread. :(

Another update was applied a couple of days ago, but a side effect seems to be that many threads that you have read part of are now showing up as completely new. It will take some time for the dust to settle, but as you view each thread the information for it will become correct (that's my belief).

If you clear your cache and delete all cookies set by this board (there is a button to delete the cookies on the home page, just above the statistics section) that may help. Or not. :o In the world of computers, glitches happen--I spent 30 years as a professional techie. <_<

Peter,

I deleted my cookies as you instructed--and now I have 18 pages and it still says my last visit was the 12th. :o

(After I deleted them, I had to sign back in...)

Oh, well, I thought it might help.

Yes, if you delete the cookies set by the board, you will sign yourself out--your sign-in status is kept in a cookie.

The unread status is not just kept in cookies--I use more than one computer to access the board, and until the recent problem, the history of what I had read was common to all of them, meaning it was kept on Scott's server, not in cookies on the individual computers.

It sounds that there may still be a problem with the board software.

I am not seeing a huge list of "new posts" in that menu, but I am still seeing some cases where when I click the button for unread posts it takes me to the first post in the thread. :(

ETA: It still thinks my last visit was October 11th. Not quite right, is it?

Ursa, Thanks for replying. I'm here just about every day. Most of the posts do not have any new replies.

To everyone else who is having problems -

Thanks for letting me know that I'm not the only one. I was beginning to wonder if I was going crazy.

I appreciate the ones who will be filling Scott in.

Cindy

Just for the record, everything is fine with me. I don't understand why some have issues and others not?

I still don't have the view last unread buttons, and I have 19 pages of "new" topics as well. Seems like Momma Lisa Goose is getting special treatment, she's the only one who's back to normal. :D

Well, I have the same problem--pages and pages of "new posts" PLUS--it keeps logging me out--THAT I HATE! I will hit reply and when it is going from the thread to reply, it logs me out, or sometimes, just going from one thread to another, I get logged out, it's veru aggravating. Nearly everytime I come into the forum I have to sign in and YES, I do have the box checked that states I want to stay logged in, it rarely works. :angry:

:rolleyes: I just try to ignore it all! When it signs me out too many times, I just leave! <_<

I am sure that Scott would like to know about these inconsistencies.

I am still seeing cases where I click on the button for last unread and it takes me to the first post in the thread, even though I have read that post, and others in the same thread. I don't think this is a cookie problem. Before the software change, the board remembered what I had read (and not read) even if I moved to another machine (we have three, although I typically only use two of them). I am currently using the notebook out on the patio; I was last on prior to this on the server upstairs. When I click on "View New Posts" I am getting the right list of topics, but in a few cases when I click on the button I still get taken to the first post.

I'm out of ideas to explain this. I know that it is not a problem with cookies, but beyond that, I am lost.

oh oh oh..... That is what I am getting sporatically--- Clicking on "last unread" button and it will take me to the first post of the thread (and I have already read that and several after that).

Same as Peter.

I still don't have the "view last unread" buttons (on the view new posts page, anyway).

When I got in just now, my last vist was TODAY!!! And I only had 3 pages of new posts to look at. Thanks for getting that cleared up.

I did notice when I clicked on view new posts that it only showed me the new posts for today. I did have the choice of viewing the past week (and farther back).

If I do have the view last unread...I can't find it.

      Dermatitis Herpetiformis - follow up dermatology appointment coming up

      By BelleDeJour · Posted

      I hope you all had a nice weekend. Cloudy here in Hampshire. Just a little update that might help someone else one day. Over the weekend, I realised that the brand of almond milk I had been buying contains added iodine. So, I visited the supermarket and chose a different brand (Plenish) that does not contain added iodine and have been drinking that since Saturday. No itching at all yesterday! Another breakthrough (thank you @knitty kitty). I think the added iodine milk may have been what was causing that last 10% itch.  I also met a friend for coffee in town yesterday. The cafe only had soya milk (which I have not been sure I am OK with) but I had 2 delicious latte's made with soya milk. I also had a gluten-free millionaire's shortbread. I am beginning to enjoy the taste of almond and soya milk a lot more than cows milk now.  I seem to be fine with a little sprinkle of cheddar cheese on my jacket potato. I bake them in my air fryer and have them with a big mixed salad and baked beans. I also made a gluten-free tuna pasta bake on Saturday; it's my son's favourite dish. I was  fine with that, too but have noticed that a whole can of tuna sets me off itching.  It is a learning curve. My dermatology appointment is tomorow and I will come back to update. Have a good week everyone.

      An observation about psyllium husk

      By transplantwest · Posted

      Psyllium can't sit for more than a minute in the water or it is like drinking sludge. Swallowed fairly soon means it's more like an flavorless undermixed protein smoothie. Chlorophyll ( or two tbsp) really helps the taste, makes it minty. Taking Psyllium and Chlorophyll separately rather than together at first helps determine if there's intolerance to either. Also starting the Psyllium in small doses, starting with 1/2 to 1 teaspoon to tolerate the fiber change.

      Gluten attack severe insomnia and anxiety?

      By DanMc · Posted

      BuddhaBar, I came across this thread while searching online for celiac insomnia (having also scared myself stupid by finding out about fatal insomnia) and it did bring me some piece of mind as it so closely matches my own experience. I know this thread is old now, I hope you're doing well, and thanks for posting your experience.
