Unread since last visit?

[madlabs]

A week or so, maybe less, I stopped seeing the "read unread messages since your last visit" option. It's the same on a couple of different computers. I seem to remember that for some reason I had to log back, as I was showing as a guest. When I did, the option was gone. I bet if I clear my cache it will come back, but I was hoping not to.

No big, just wanted the powers that be to know.

I have seen that but it seems to go away on its own.

Clearing cookies and cache is always a good first step when a site starts acting "funny".

I generally use this bookmarked link for the site anyway:

http://www.anotherpower.com/board/index.php?action=unread

Which is the same as the unread since last visit  link on the site on the top of every page.

Of course, you must be logged in for it to work, I think?

I have never actually "logged out" since the site went live.

I tend to use the "Recent small"  link.
Rendering this on the page is not dependent on conditions that SMF can mess up on

This listing places a  on the end of things you have not seen yet, but only adds that new if you are logged in so it knows who you are.

Click that little orange new, and it brings you to the first post in that Topic you have not seen.
But it also lists a number of the most recent you have seen as well.
If left open on that page it auto refreshes every few minutes, you can see new postings at a glance.

Ross and I  have noticed however that it occasionally skips post that you create, or reply to,
however no one else has mentioned it yet if they have seen it.

FYI on a similar note.

On the bottom there is an RSS feed link for things like mail clients, or apps on cell phones.

That link works Tom, I changed my bookmark. Same thing is happening on my phone too.

Thanks!
