"Submissions since the Day of Your Last Visit" shows old info

the "Submissions since the Day of Your Last Visit" shows old info for items that were added. It still shows the great images that Net Wolf added back on December 30.

Just though someone may want to know that something is not quite working correcly in showing items since the last visit.

Thanks and keep up the great work. This is a wonderful site and I thank you for your work in setting it up and keeping it going.

Thanks

Re: "Submissions since the Day of Your Last Visit" shows old info

Have you actually proceeded beyond the front page since then?  For instance, does that old info show now that you've posted to the forum?

Just visiting the front page will not count as a "visit", so the info will remain on the page.  You have to actually go into an author's section, or visit the forum, to register as having visited the site for purposes of that list of submissions.

nightsecho:

Yours probably isn't so much a glitch as a programming choice.  The list doesn't show "things posted since your last visit".  It posts things "posted since the day of your last visit", including the day of your last visit.  So if you visit daily, it's going to show you stuff posted yesterday and today, all the time.

You are correct. I had not checked the forums until yesterday. I was just reading and enjoying "Winter's Blade". After I did go to the forums the count reset.

Thanks for the info on how the counters work.

Hmmm.  If you were reading a story, it should have counted that as a visit.  I will need to look into that.  Thanks for the heads-up.
