Still not fixed for me. Still sends me to www.fredmiranda.com/board/X instead of www.fredmiranda.com/forum/board/X

I can't see the issue. Are you still experiencing this? Please let me know.

I am finding the "New" feature on "My posts" to be very inaccurate. I can log on the following day to find posts still indicated as having new responses when they haven't - and vice versa.

Same here, though I only notice it as the "New" oval flag always coming on, even when I've looked at the thread several times since the last change to it.

(But I do like the revised color of the "new" label even if it isn't accurate

)

I don't know whether this is a bug or me being stupid, but having subcribed to the uploading tool, after i have browsed and found the picture, it does not show in the thread? i therefore have to use Photobucket to show my images.

Many thanks in advanced.

Should work - are you sure you are choosing a jpeg image? You also need to make sure you enter some message text when uploading as well

Paul, below is how the 'new' flag works:

- after a long period of inactivity (> 30 mn), the next time you use FM.com, the 'Last-Visit' time is when you visited FM.com previously, say 8 hours ago.

- any topic that has been modified within these 8 hours will be flagged "New".

- note that your last post will not be within these 8 hours (because the Post is one of your activity) and thus your own posts won't be flagged "New" if there is not reply to it.

- each time you visits a topic, that topic is stored in a cookie and marked as read: a refresh of My posts should not show New.

- the Last reply shown in My posts is the time you posted, not the last post time of the topic ; thus you post could be 3 days before, while a reply was made an hour ago.

Let me know if this is not clear.
Best,
Fred

As Paul wrote, it should work. Try post a topic with uploads on this board and if it does not work. Leave it here so I can check.

Just gone to "My posts"

see attached.

Foe example - there has been a reply to the first post in the last few minutes after my post about 15 minutes earlier. Goes not show as having a new response.

Last post shows there being a new response - but the last post was mine yesterday.

Your own reply to this post shows that it was 2 hours ago - which it was not. (my time zone is correct in my profile). Edit - reread your reply - think this is probably what you intend

Am I misunderstanding what should happen?

Try logging out and logging back in, Paul. It seems to have fixed it for me, but we'll see next I visit here if it really is fixed.

Yes that was it - normally I don't logout - took me 10 minutes to work out how to do it!

Thanks

I don't know if it qualifies as a bug, more of a suggestion I suppose, but why is it that I can preview a PM before it's sent, but I cannot preview a reply to a thread before it is posted?
If I could preview my posts, it would save a lot of time editing my poor grammar afterwards!

Thanks for your time,
Helimat

I had the same problem, NEW notices all over the search page items, also fixed by logging off and logging on again.

Maybe it's a good idea to put up a global notice to this effect? Suggesting users try logging out and logging back in in case they have issues.

I read that there is a 'bump' button but don't see it, instead I see - Bump in 05:23:14 - does this mean it won't jump to the top for another 5 hours?

I don't believe it's been bumped yet and it says - Bump your listings every 12 hours

Hi Loading.
The Buy and Sell 'bump' button will appear once the counter is finished. In the case above, after 5 hours and 23 minutes, the bump button will appear in place of the counter. As a topic starter, you may bump your topic by replying to it or clicking on the bump button. This bumping system is only relevant for the topic starter. Other members may bump topics by replying to them at anytime. However, once a member replies to your topic, the counter is reset.
Best,
Fred

The time isn't showing up correctly for me. I just checked my preferences and I have it set right for my time zone, but it's showing 11:36 instead of 12:36 like it should for example. I dont' remember it being like this a week ago.

I've had to register a new account as my old one will not let me in.

The username on my old account is 'Ron Bailey' and I sure would like to keep it if I can. My password is no longer recognized. Any help?

Thanks!

Hi Will,
You may have to adjust your time zone to reflect daylight-savings. The forum does not do that automatically.

Not sure if this is a bug or not, but whenever I click on the title of a new thread, it takes me to the last page of the thread. I understand there is an "end" link for this very purpose. Is this a bug? I very much prefer it that if I click the title of a new thread, I be taken to the first post.

Thanks Fred,

Jason

It's a bit annoying, but when responding to this thread, it actually works out OK
