A Problem That I Don't Know What to Name

So, I log into my account on my computer and either post a new message or read the newest messages. Then, 30 seconds later, I use my iPhone and log in on THAT. Either my new posts come up as "New Posts" or read messages come up as "New Posts." You think you can fix that, Stormy?

I'm guessing it stores which new posts you'd see in that device's cookies, so for it to do what you are asking would require the site to store this info, which I think would require a lot of pretty unnecessary work on Stormy or SR's part.

Hm, I'm not sure why that would be happening. Probably would be something to do with how your browser handles cookies. I can't remember having unread posts marked as read unless I ended my session in some way.

I'm pretty sure it's supposed to just show which posts are new since your last visit. That's why 36 is seeing that.

Oh, probably. I guess it wouldn't be happening to me because I just read everything. tongue

KingLambda's post makes sense.

it wouldn't be how Firefox handles cookies (in my case anyway) because i only have it set to clear cookies after i close the browser.
