New threads/replies not updating

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Hey Dan,
Having trouble in the league forum where the thread display isn't being updated. Every time I visit the site it looks as if all threads have been read (or marked as read) even though they haven't.
Cleared the cache and cookies on my main browser (Safari 6 on OS X) and it's still happening. Then I tried Firefox and Chrome and got the same problem…

Very odd, I'll look into it for you this week

Thanks, Dan. Likely a problem on my end but proving hard to track down. Anything changed on the site?

Nothing has changed on the site but there may be a setting somewhere

I suspect it's a bug with Safari somehow automatically marking everything as read.

---

In fact, I'm now sure it's Safari's fault, although it's not a bug. For some reason it was redirecting to the "Mark as read" URL every time I visited the forum. I've now beaten it mercilessly with a stick and fixed it.
Problem solved🙂

Is this still happening. I cleaned out the sessions tablethe other day and that may have been part of the cause it had about 200mb of data dating back to early 2011 and before. So ripped out a lot and put in an auto cleanup so we shouldn't see repeats of this, but i could be wrong
