This an extremely frustrating issue. I can't believe IB is taking this long to fix it.

Rest assured it is in our tech queue to be resolved -- we haven't forgotten about this!

Hi IBobi

It is now a month since your last post, and I continue to have some probelms with a few specific topics. What is happening?

It is interesting for me to note that my very first post on this topic was eight months ago.

Thanks
Ron

Can you list which threads it is happening with?

I assume you saw Dick's last post in August about clearing your cache, yes?

FYI this problem was resolved for the majority of users in August; the issue raised in October is a re-emergence of a resolved problem -- not the same one that you first reported in April (though it's the same thread). Just so we have our timing straight ;)

At this time I am counting only 5 FTers -- including canarsie, who's using a workaround -- who are reporting this issue.

This is one thread for which it happens consistently for me:

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/check...es-merged.html

Suddenly started having a variation of this problem tonight. No new unread threads now, but I'll do some testing and analysis tomorrow when some threads with new unread posts threads pop up.

Using Chrome (latest) on WinXP SP3. Will see if I can duplicate in IE/FF/Safari and check on Safari and FF on Mac OS 10.5, too. (That's a lot to test...will see if I can get to that all! :p)

I've had this problem on and off with different threads for months now. When it does happen, I clear (only) my cache and it goes away instantly.

It would seem it's still the same problem debugged earlier in this thread (the redirect being cached).

It has started recurring for me too. Right now this thread:

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/ameri...l#post17494230

Always goes to post #109. I am using FF 8.0.1 on Max Os/x Lion

There are other problem threads too but this one I keep noticing

Stopped happening the next day on the same browser on the same computer, so I didn't bother testing on other browsers/computers.

The 'Go to first new post' link always brings me to the same post in the thread!
 

I'm subscribed to a l:pt of threads. Most of the subscriptions seem to work fine. One, however, seems always to bring me to a particular post instead of to the latest post.

When viewed from the My Flyertalk page, the link for this thread that displays with the alt text of "Go to first new post" always takes me to the same post in the thread, #2221. Checking now, that link is this. When I click on the link I am taken to this link. HELP!

This has been covered pretty extensively in this thread.

:eek::eek:ps -- missed that. I deleted *all* flyertalk.com cookies. That didn't fix it. I then deleted all flyertalk.com entries from my browser history and restarted the browser. That seems to have fixed things! I'm on Firefox 9, by the way. THANKS, everyone!

Well, this seems to be rearing its ugly head again.

It started with one thread about a week ago. Cleared my cache and cookies and it disappeared, only to reappear again in another thread a few days later.

As of this evening, I am now seeing this on three threads. Happening in FF and Chrome.

That's funny -- it started again last night for me t:rolleyes::rolleyes:...

Just saw it again. Clearing my browser cache and flyertalk.com history s:)lved the issue. I don't have this with any other sites.
