slngsht Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Please let me know. I, along with a few others have noticed some inconsistent behavior, where the forum pops up a message box indicating you have a new message when you don't, or not telling you that there is a new message, when there is one. Skip got a notification, but found no new message. I'm trying to confirm that this is just a case of false notification rather than a message just disappearing. Thanks, and I'll work on this bug in the coming weeks (still too busy with work these days). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsimon Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 I may be the culprit. I was trying to reply to Skip's post on speedos in the tech section. Every time I got close to posting, Qwest would untrain my router. After a couple of trys, I gave up. My attempts were around 04:00 GMT, if that's any help. Here's what I think was happening; Even if you don't complete a post, the forum software still sends the Topic Subscription New Post Notification by e-mail if any members have selected that option. I've seen it happen in other forums that have the look of this one. Qwest fixed my router problem now and I can stay connected. BTW...You've done a fantastic job of making this forum work well. I hope I haven't thrown a spanner in the works here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slngsht Posted May 10, 2007 Author Share Posted May 10, 2007 Bob, Thanks for the kind remarks I think skip's problem was with a missing private message, rather than a post. The forum is still a work in progress. I see alot of areas for improvement, but making a living is getting in the way. Slowly but surely...

scannon Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 Today I got a regular email notifying me that I had a PM on the forum. I went there and it was there.:hurray: This time I didn't get the flash screen upon going to the forum as I had with the previous couple of times when the PM was missing so I think you have solved the problem. Thanks and get along with making a living! Skip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
