SteveS Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 Have been away for a week - signed in to my account, pressed the View New Content button - response is 'Sorry, no new content'. 1) Did anything happen in the concertina world whilst I was away? Might explain the lack of content 2) Is there a bug in the forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might explain the lack of content 2) Is there a bug in the forum? During that week I've seen multiple instances of New Content. I'm wondering if there might have been a temporary disconnect in the database when you logged in. Were you able to view posts through the individual subForums? What about the Recent Topics list on the right of the Forums main page? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Hare Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 (edited) The issue only exists on pressing the View New Content button. I too have noticed this 'problem'. It has been around for a while, I think Roger Edited September 11, 2015 by lachenal74693 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spindizzy Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 I always try clearing the browser cache if a forum starts behaving out of line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been around for a while, I think FWIW, I have not experienced and am not experiencing this problem.

Don Taylor Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 After displaying the "New Content" page, check your "Time Period" setting. I have mine set to the maximum value of one year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have mine set to the maximum value of one year. Thank you Don. It's now working (for the first time AFAIAC). Ironically, the 'New Content' displayed relates to the topic: Sorry, No New Content Couldn't make it up, could you...

Thanks Don - good tip. All working now having changed my settings. Strange thing is that I didn't conciously change the settings in the first place. Concertina gremlins perhaps?

JimLucas Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 All working now having changed my settings. Strange thing is that I didn't conciously change the settings in the first place. What's your operating system? I'm tied to Windows, and I've found this sort of thing happening from time to time, but more frequently and in more applications with every new release of Windows, and especially right after an "upgrade". No idea what the mechanism is, and there seems to be no predicting what few things in what programs it will affect "this time", but it's happened enough times with parameters that I didn't even know existed that I know it's not simply my own carelessness. I've had to learn to roll with the punches, and to hunt for new parameters whenever something goes screwy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
