    Hey Alex...

    Just a minor thing

    For the last couple of days the site hasn't been remembering whether I have read the threads or not. I can read the most recent post, head into auto-refresh and it's still saying there are new posts.

    Not much of a deal but figured you'd either want to know, or let me know what I'm doing wrong here

    odd... very ... mine is showing just fine.
    Not saying yours isnt of course.

    Does anyone else see that?

    After you view this thread does it 'unbold' on the search page?

    Nope. Read it, went back into auto-refresh and it's still showing bold. The little green arrow indicating whether I have posted in a thread has disappeared too.

    Yeah that is weird, because mine showed as read.

    Got me.. sounds like a cookie issue.

    You could try loggin out completely and then back in. But it's all based on a login and a cookie.

    I will keep looking but I dont see anything out of place.

    That little green arrow has also disappeared for me. I thought you had simply decided to take that out.

    yes the green arrow is gone. But the thread should be BOLD if there is anything left unread by you. And the arrow on the right has been replaced with text "last post". Does the same thing though... just goes to the last post.

    Well then, I'm alright here (but I liked the green arrow).

    Just a simple log-out log-in seems to be working for now

    It seems there may be a downside to being logged in non-stop with an open SilCo tab for a few months

    I did like the green tag to quickly let me see which threads I had already posted in, but no big deal, I'm just grateful that this place exists.

    Cheers!

    Hehe. I like the text. It's a bigger target for my sloppy mousemanship

    Nordom: I most always use the "go to last unread post". This way I'm sure I don't miss anything.

    It's not that green nugget I miss, it was a little green wotsit over at the far left of the thread name that you couldn't click, it simply told you whether you had already posted in that thread or not.

    I was having the same problem. Logged out and logged back in. Problem solved. FWIW, that is the first time I've EVER logged out, period, since the day I joined. I guess we need to do that every now and then, huh?
