wildman Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I've been having issues with my user name I would assume. It started last year just been busy to report it. When I come here for news I look at topics without signing in. Normally going through the new content option. Well I get multiple pages of current topics posters are responding in. When I go to log in to respond myself. When I click on new topics it'll show just a couple topics or none at all. When just a moment ago without logging in had 4 pages. any idea what could be possibly causing this? Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Not sure. That's a strange one. I'm not getting this - anyone else? That is for the New Content link here? http://www.huskerboard.com/index.php?app=core&module=search&do=viewNewContent&search_app=forums Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 The new topics are kept per user so when you view the topics without logging in, it doesn't know what to show for new topics (I don't think). I thought it usually showed nothing new when I do that but perhaps it shows everything new. However, when you log in, it should show anything new since you last logged in. Not sure why it would only be showing you a few things there. Quote Link to comment
AR Husker Fan Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 This could be a cookies issue. I can't immediately find any documentation, but I remember that in addition to your "username" session, cookies also store your IP as another form of matching. So, if you view the board without logging in, then log in and there are only a few "new content" threads or posts, it may be due to the cookie matching the IP for each session. Quote Link to comment
wildman Posted October 8, 2015 Author Share Posted October 8, 2015 I thought it could be a cookies thing to. But i've been having this issue over 3 computers now and 2 of them ive deleted cookies and internet history. The computer I used yesterday to create this post. Was the first time ive ever logged in on that computer. When I clicked on the link Zoogs provided I got 2 pages worth of stuff. Where as yesterday I had 3 topics. Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Huh, do you happen to know what link you clicked yesterday to only get 3 topics? Maybe there's an incorrect URL somewhere. I got that link from clicking "View Content" on the main (black) menu bar at the top of the page, on the desktop version of the site. Quote Link to comment
wildman Posted October 8, 2015 Author Share Posted October 8, 2015 I just click on the view new content under the facebook icon near the top of the page. Quote Link to comment
AR Husker Fan Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Huh. Wish I could say I had a clue, but I don't. I can't reproduce it in any browser. Sorry. Quote Link to comment
