Broke...

Please fix it... I ca'nt View New Posts...
 
huh...I can view them. Are you talking, you cant see and edit the new posts the ones you get by email??
 
Working here too. What seems to be the problem Q?
 
Update the shortcut you use (desktop/favorites/links). It has change, but updating the shortcut works.
 
Okay - this is what I have found to be happening over the last few changes from XP to NTFS and back to XP:

My old XP favorite link takes me to here:
http://www.xp-erience.org/forum/search.php?s=&action=showresults&getnew=true&searchid=126737

- which displays 15 pages of threads going back to yesterday afternoon. (Without doing a "searching" page)

My current desktop short cut goes to:
http://www.xp-erience.org/forum/search.php?s=&action=getnew

- which gives me the "searching" page and then ends up at:

http://www.xp-erience.org/forum/search.php?s=&action=showresults&getnew=true&searchid=127288

- which shows 2 pages of threads.

Now bear in mind that the last three digits (288 in this case) will change as the most recent threads change.

However the last three digits for my favorite one (737) does not change when a new response is added at the beginning of the list. But it still shows the same ones in the same order as the current desktop shortcut one does - it just lists a lot more threads.

So what am I trying to say?

Dang if I know - but I just thought it was curious how things acted when ya had favorites and shortcuts set up just ever so slightly different. :confused: :confused:
 
I enter the main forum page: XP-erience.org/forum,,,
I click "view new posts",,, 'cause browsing the forum anyother way takes way to long :)...

And everytime it seaches but says there's no new posts...

hmmm... must be something on my end...
 
STILL DOES"NT WORK!!! WHAT CAN I DO?!?
ANY IDEAS?!? I CAN"T BROWSE THE WAY I"M USED TO!!!

ARG!!!
 
I just installed SP1 even though Windows update did it...
And it seems to working now...

Strange because my other haughts all worked normally...

Stop adding hacks EP...

BTW how hard is it to do that?!?
I might want to add a few to mine...
 
Varies alot, may have to edit some templates, run a script or modify files
 
I can view new posts, but it only shows 10 to a page, regardless of my user settings. Sure wish I could view more at one time. Can I?
 
That might be worth looking up.... Think I will try and up it to 20 a little later on.
 
Happened to me earlier today. Makes you appreciate what a handy feature that is. :eek:

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
