Lona:
When I logon I usually go to View posts since last visit.

I have noticed recently there are posts showing but when I click on them it says there are none.

I just logged on this minute and it said 16 new posts since last visit and when I click on it, it changes to none.

Clive:
I can't say that I've ever noticed any problems with it Lona.  I wonder if anyone else has?   :cry:

sam:
i noticed that once before and put it down to my browsers cache. it could be something like that. eitherway I wouldn't worry too much about it. you arent gonna be missing out on anything. its odd though. how often has the occured?

chorleydave:
My cache empties automatically every time I close the browser.  However, what I have found is that if I have read all the posts since my last visit and then closed the browser (for any length of time) and there haven't actually been any posts since my last visit, the next time I log in it will always report one post since my last visit, even though when I click on the link there aren't any to be read.

Simon:
Lona, are you using Firefox?  The thing you are describing used to happen to me, because Firefox, for some reason, opened two simultaneous windows, and therefore the forum software thinks you have read all the posts (don't ask me to explain why - it just does!).  This is one of the reasons I switched back to Mozilla.  You can still read the new posts by going to the Index page, and View posts from previous (1) day.
