New Posts Not Working?

Post by Pony99CA »

I visited the board Monday after it came back and visited the new posts. Visiting today (Wednesday) and clicking New Posts still shows read posts back to 12/13. is there a problem after the hack fixing? I presume that it's not a bug in phpBB 3.1, but I thought that I'd ask here just in case.

I'm still seeing posts from 12/13 when viewing new posts. Is anybody else seeing that?

Nope my oldest "new" post is from Jan 12, in the Releasing 3.1.3 topic.

I'm still seeing lots of old posts show up as "new". I tried the usual cache clearing to no avail. The "new posts" indicator does change from "unread posts" to "no unread posts", but the topic still shows up as new.

I'm still seeing posts back to 12/3 (I might have misread the 12/13 before#. Can a Web site admin look and see what's going on?

UPDATE: I cleared my board cookies and, after a bunch of trouble, now don't see any new posts #as expected#. However, the "trouble" was interesting. After clearing the board cookies, I got a pop-up saying that cookies were cleared, but then got an invalid page #maybe after clicking the Return to board index link. I deleted the SID and still got a bad page. I deleted the port (":80") and finally got to the index. Then I tried to log in and got another error and got hung on the ucp.php?mode=login (or whatever) page. Going back to the index page showed that I was now logged in.

Plus, when clicking Submit to post (five times today, including two edits of this post), I got the following error:

The website declined to show this webpage

HTTP 403


Most likely causes:
•This website requires you to log in.
When I went back to the previous page, the topic review showed my post made. It was as if I was trying to post twice. Weird.

The problem is back. I'm now seeing old topics back to January 27th, despite having visited yesterday (February 2).

One thing that I forgot to mention -- New Posts works fine on phpBB.com. It's only here that I have the problem.
