    Has anyone noticed a problem with "New Posts"? Mine is not working. It is stuck showing the same last ones at some hour today. I can only see the new ones by clicking on activity stream.

    I'm seeing the same issue. The thread shows news post at 20:52, but when I look in the thread, there is no new post.

    UPDATE: Curiously, when I go into the thread, I don't see the new post at 20:52, but when I reload the page (while inside the thread) the post shows up (as do a bunch of others I didn't know were there).

    I was wondering if that feature existed (that is, have an icon next to a thread name that takes me to the first unread response in the thread).

    Some forums (SMF for example) put a "new" icon in the thread list Screen Shot 2019-03-19 at 6.12.36 PM.png taking you to the first message added since I last read the thread.

    The "New Posts" is simply a list of thread names that have updates.

    I can select the thread title (goes to the first page) or I can guess a page to start reading.

    If it's been a while since I visited, I have no idea what page to select to pick up where I left off.

    See posts above for directions on what to click - post 10 for example.
    Or my other post.

    I also notice that the home page continuously shows only seven new posts - for several hours today, but when I reload the page, it says 12 new posts. However, when I go into a thread, I still can't see new posts until I reload the page.

    Yeah, something is definitely going on with the function. This is how I browse the forums almost all the time and it's not working correctly.
    At least I now know it's not only me.

    May want to start a new thread or ping a mod to get their attention. Not sure they will see all this buried in this thread.

    I wish I could - hammockforums is pretty much unusable right now. Getting all sorts of strange messages - no new posts, token has expired, really weird stuff.
