fitmic Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 It doesn't work correctly. When I first enter this board it said 72 new posts, but when clicking, it says 11 new posts since my last visit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 This function is cookie-based. Depending on settings on your computer, the "New-post"-counter can be reset if you surf on other RWG pages/threads/topics before you click the "View new posts"-link. So basically, to be safe, the first thing to do when you enter RWG is to click "View new posts". Another explanation is that the first number you saw was a cached version of the page, stored in your browsers cache. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted May 31, 2007 Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 admin gave a good explanation. Practically speaking I concluded a while ago that every once in a while you have to actually go through the various sections you are interested in to make sure you didn't miss anything.
