    Is it just me or is the go to first unread link not working properly? I takes me to posts I've already read. Any idea what's going on?

    I know David is beefing up some security issues so there might be some oddities as he's poking around.

    Me too. It's not consistent. It works on some threads, and not on others.

    It happened once this morning but is becoming more and more common as the day has gone on.

    This is happening for me as well...not always, but often enough to be a major hassle. I'm getting tired of trying to figure out where the real new posts start...

    It is continuing. Mine is usually within half a page instead of the in the beginning or middle now.

    Strangely enough, this wasn't happening to me yesterday when most of you posted. But...
    It is now. Tell me this is WIP and will be fixed soon?

    You may need to mark all forums read to reset the markers.

    "go to first unread" has continued to work for me with ie11 in windows 8.1, but still no avatar pics (other than admins/mods). :confused:

    I did this after your post, but it's still happening. Not enough data to be sure, but I think it's only happening in threads that I have visited more than once since "all forums read"...

    I marked all the forums read after you posted that Mike, but the session I just logged in on took me to the wrong "first unread post" in every thread I clicked on this time.

    And now I see that's not the case...sometimes it takes me to posts from yesterday or earlier.

    Didn't work.

    Everything is still all wonky. Some threads are correct, others aren't.

    We'll have to wait for David to chime in as he's been making changes since the trouble on Wednesday.

    Hi...Site is now behind a proxy server which would more or less be the issue and more than likely has to do with caching.

    So, I just now turned off caching and cleared the proxy cache. Let me know if that helps.

    (Though it may slow the site down...we will see.)
