Question on the "New Post" tab

VulcanE · 02-09-2017, 05:02 PM

Usually when I come to the forum, I click on the "New Posts" link up in the red bar and it always takes me to all the posts (and threads) that has been made since my last visit. For the last week or so, when I click the link, it goes to an empty page and gives me a "Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms." message.
Any ideas what's changed?

I really do like that link.

Try clearing your browsing data as I was also having similar issues and that worked for me.

The link below is from my Chrome browser
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bw...HdBd1dBc0NRY00

Click on the three dots in the top right corner to access the menu.

The new post thing is working for me.
Probably your settings changed by themselves.
Damn computers anyway

The same thing has been happening to me, I cleared my history, did a disk defrag and its all fine again.

Yup same here. Was only getting the empty screen. Pulled out my 357 magnum pointed it directly at its hard drive and told it if it didn't shape up and run right , I was gonna put 3 rounds in it. Haven't had a problem since. Matter of fact it's been running really good.

Thanks guys for the suggestions, but all that defragging, clearing/cleaning and updating is all done automatically, but as of today, it's working fine again

I was having the same issue as well and just figured it was keeping the browser history and needed to clean it up to no avail. Getting on just now figured it was going to pull the same crap but is actually working fine.

I was having trouble when using my phone.
I found that if you logon to the forum and then log off and delete the link you are using to connect to the forum it fixed it.
Use google to find the forum and follow that link.
Log in and then save to your favorites.
That worked for me.

I had a similar problem with the posts from the same day being the only ones that came up for new posts. It wouldn't even update that I had viewed them. Cleared the browsing history for the most recent 4 days (the default option in Chrome) and all was good again.

Not sure what program(s) you are using to clear, degrag, etc., but they may not be clearing your browser history, just the browser temp files. There is no way in Chrome to set up auto clearing either. If your browser is set to auto suggest when you start typing an address that you have visited before, and it lists suggestions, your history is not being cleared. That's why many (most? all?) maintenance programs don't clear the history.
