I like the new page look but I've noticed a software glitch. When I leave the site and come back to it all the little saloon doors are still bright yellow and wide open(indicating new topics). It never did this in the past. Now I can't tell if there are new post sence my last visit. Just giving Outlaw a heads up. Hope this helps smile

This stumped me earlier, but I figured it out. The newer version of UBB resets the cookie that tracks new posts since your last visit when you come back to the forum in a new browser session (closing IE and opening a new IE, then coming back) rather than simply on a page refresh. There's a link on the "my profile" page called "Update New Post Indicators" that resets the cookie on command. I made that link my bookmark.

Unfortunately, that's because it's your first visit since the update. Also, once your logged in you can click on "my profile" at the top and click on "Update New Post Indicators". This will allow you to update the saloon doors every time you click on the link!

Thanks gonk and Scott:

I changed my link and solved the problem. Sorry I wasn't checking in enough. I've just been spending so much time with my 950/7100. Guess thats why I haven't gotten any stars by my rateing yet smile
