Show unread posts since last visit - not working properly?

[arekm]

Am I the only one having rouble with "Show unread posts since last visit." functionality? Quite often it shows nothing even when I wasn't  even visiting eevblog forum page.

Any ideas?

Works perfectly well for me.

Works with minor quirks here.

I have been having problems with threads showing as having unread posts for a year now. There seems to be very little interest in fixing it.

Can you check from another computer? It could be your cookies / browser cache causing it.

Me too. Only occasionally though.

Firefox on linux. Multiple PCs.

Whenever I have problems (on other sites) though it's generally related to noscript, gohstery, https everywhere or some combination. Firefox sync with noscript in particular seems to cause issues.

It happens in Firefox, Chrome, different computers, and on my Galaxy S3

I see it a lot with Tapatalk, never on my PC. I've been thinking it was a problem with Tapatalk...

It's always worked fine for me (using almost any browser except IE). Pretty sure I erased every trace of that annoying Tapatalk application, though.

I have been with the same problems for about a week. Never before.

Clicking on "Show unread posts since last visit" brings to a list of 2 to 4 unread pages. If then I click on "All unread messages", thy grow to 5 or 7 unread pages.

This is in various diferent devices.

I have Tapatalk on my phone but I don't use it. Maybe it checks the forum?

Would be nice if "Show unread posts since last visit." got replaced with "Show unread posts since last unreaded posts checking.", so it would zeroe on explict click and not due to some unknown causes.

There is mod (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=512057.0) that adds "Show the most recent posts" which would be neat (since not depending on login/visiting time). Any chance of getting it enabled on this forum?

(yes, still having the problem)

Same here, occasionally.

That bug is really annoying

Is there really no way to fix that ugly SMF stupidity/bug?

Anyway somehow missed "Click here to try all unread topics.". Looks like sorted by last reply time descending, so that should do the "smf is crap but here is a workaround" job.

I've been having a problem in the last week or so with my work computer running IE 10 will show the wrong date and let me browse as if I was on that date. It seems I have to CTRL-F5 to get the current version of the page.

I purged my browser cache and reset everything with no luck.  It still may be just something on my side but was just strange to suddenly start doing that.

Misconfigured proxy?

I don't think so. Its all automatic. Only eevblog seems to be affected.
