Eyesa Horg Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Yesterday and previous when I clicked on "unread content" and the list came up--- when I looked at a thread and hit back space I would return to where I was in the list. Now every time I do it today, it returns to the top of the list requiring a scroll back down thru to get back to where I was. What am I suddenly doing wrong??

I guess I just need to see what the next thread is so I can scroll back to that point! Seems to be only happening on this sight, I'm not having the issue elsewhere. Is there maybe a setting I changed accidentally? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Wolf Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 What are you using for a browser? The wife says to try clearing your cache, but that would also clear your history. Red Wolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eyesa Horg Posted June 22, 2018 Author Share Posted June 22, 2018 Why would it have changed all of a sudden. I'll try my laptop and Chrome and see what happens. My office PC is Vista and doesn't support Chrome anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Wolf Well it appears that Mrs. Wolf is on to something! Despite all the security warnings, I launched Chrome on the PC and no issue with the back button. So in conclusion, the issue seems to be with FireFox. Have no clue what would have suddenly changed there a couple days ago however! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramblin Gambler Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Do you let firefox update automagically? It could be that they pushed an update onto ya. Do you have a cookie or script blocker? Maybe you need to make sure the HTTPS version of the website is whitelisted as well as the HTTP version. I just looked in my addressbar and noticed I'm using the HTTPS while my bookmark uses HTTP. Perhaps that's a recent website change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just looked in my addressbar and noticed I'm using the HTTPS while my bookmark uses HTTP. Perhaps that's a recent website change. It does update automatically and did so on June 7th. This issue just started a couple days ago. I wonder if I accidentally changed something on this site and saved it as in the "activity stream". I did save there not long ago when a save button showed up. Didn't notice a change at the time. Is there a way to delete cookie for just this site? Went to FireFox support and a person replied that I'm using an outdated version, but FireFox says I'm up to date as of 6/7. The address bar indicates I'm on HTTPS When I hit the back button, it goes to where I was for about a second and then to the top of the page, if that helps!

Yusta B. Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 FireFox revision should be 60.0.2 - at least that's what mine shows & reports "Up to date". Updated 6 June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Updated 6 June. Mine is 52.8.1 which is relatively new for Vista. I installed it a couple months ago and haven't had any issues with it. I tried 60.0.2 and it won't work on Vista so it says. Mine claims it is up to date as of 6/7. Thinking I might try and delete the Cookies, but that usually cause me some sort of pain, so I don't usually do that! We're getting close though.

Ah - running Windows 7 Home Premium here - bet that's gonna make a difference. Hope you get it figured out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyesa Horg Posted June 23, 2018 Author Share Posted June 23, 2018 Me too Yusta, I tried reloading FireFox, but it keeps my old profile and bookmarks, Thank God! I always hate deleting cookies as things just seem to disappear, but that will be the next thing to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyesa Horg Posted June 23, 2018 Author Share Posted June 23, 2018 OK, Now I've deleted everything in history on the browser including cookies. Been playing here and the ONLY place this issue is happening is "Unread Content" list. All the individual forums, back goes back to where I was. "Unread goes back to the top of the page.

Ramblin Gambler Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 With a cookie manager you can delete cookies for individual sites. I'm not too much help with your problem. Because of inconsistencies in how the back button works on various sites, I am in the habit of right clicking on topics and opening them in new tabs (OK I actually middle click cause I got one of them fancy 3 button mouses). I have never even looked at the activity list and unread content before today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the "unread content" button because it brings up the whole list of posts I haven't read, then I click on "mark site read" and the list stays relatively short unless I don't get on for a day or two. This way I don't miss any posts. I deleted all my cookies , cache, history, reloaded FireFox and still doesn't work. I'm going with your method!!
