I have noticed in the past two weeks, that certain functionality on DevMaster is broken. For instance, when I click the 'New Posts' link, it almost always says that there are no new threads, even though I can go to the forums and see for myself, that there are infact new threads.

The 'Quick Links->Mark Forums Read' sometimes also just leaves things as they were.

EDIT: Actually, the 'New Posts' link says "Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms."

Whenever there are no new posts, it still says, "There are new posts!" in any given sub-forum.
I honestly do not know if that's being caused on my side, or server side.

Here's the picture of the sub-forums:

Here's what happens when I click on that sub-forum:

No new threads, no new posts, nothing! :confused:

Kenneth, I haven't seen these issues on my machines. Is it possible something is up with your cookies? Maybe try clearing any devmaster-related ones? Alternatively, has anyone else seen an issue like Kenneth's?

Hyper, yes, that is a peculiarity of vBulletin I've seen both here and on other sites. But if you go to Quick Links -> Mark Forums Read, it will clear those orange "unread" icons.

That works, thanks. :p

"List recently updated engines" doesn't work either.. Thought I'd just add to the conversation. :)

I'll give it a go, and report back.

Well, it seems to be working! It's weird though, because I have never had this problem before...
