Posted on 03/03/2008 12:04:30 PM PST by READINABLUESTATE

My refresh button keeps coming back to the latest articles when I click on latest posts. Is this a bad internal link or something? Is anyone else experiencing this?

I’m curious about your FR moniker. Are you saying they don’t read in Blue states?

Maybe you’re not logged in.

I just re-saved my FR bookmark to the comments page. I can’t find latest posts....but comments seems close enough. I think there was some fixin’ goin’ on this past weekend.

Looks like the default is latest articles, I had to look around and found a new “Comments” link under “Browse by Forum.”

If your ones and zeros look ok. Check your bit bucket.

Perhaps I’m wrong, but I always though the refresh button brought up the lastest iteration of the page, thus newer articles.

There was some kind of mod done two days ago and it's maddening because now you can't see the latest posts for just one forum. For example, if you're in Religion and want to see the latest comments in Religion it shows you ALL the latest comments for ALL forums.

It makes it very hard to follow what's going on in any one forum.

Is there a fix coming for this??

If your ones and zeros and your bit bucket are fine.

Run a self test on your mono-stable fratilizer. If it has gone asynchronous, replace the fallopian tubes. Radio Shack has the best price.

Check your socks to make sure there are no holes in them.

Evern a little wear on the heels can cause things like this refresh/link/strange Latest Posts/Comments problem to occur.

You’ve probably got some dirt in your hard drive. Take it out, soak it for about a half an hour in a solution of Palmolive and water, dry with paper towels and try again.

I have found the problem, The link has changed.

Save this link below as your home page and you will not have to visit the FR home page again. Ever. For any reason.
