Info on Who Has Read a Topic

[Evil Penevil 7,628]

Until a few days ago, there used to be a list at the bottom of each topic with the names of the BMs who had read a thread. It looked something like this:

 

 

Now all you see at the bottom of the page for every topic are the names of the people reading it in real time, not the names of those who have read it.

 

Is there a reason for the change? I found it very useful to know who had read a particular topic.

Still there on a thread I just looked at.....and this one......just you and me so far Evil!

Expand/Collapse.

The above pic does not appear to have been within a thread.

How are you accessing the forum, mobile, which browser etc?

Checked it out on both Chrome and Firefox on my laptop running Windows 8. Will try Explorer. EDIT IN: Same-same on Explorer as Chrome and Firefox. I'll try later on my desktop which runs on XP.

 

This is what it looks like for me now at the bottom of the Agogos News topic which had been viewed by several hundred BMs.

I've not made any software changes.

Perhaps you've mistakenly hit that little "Collapse" option at the bottom.

I don't see a collapse option (maybe I'm going blind).

I don't have the "This topic has been visited by ..." on any browser. No new Add-Ons. Strange. I'll see if it comes back in a day or two. Such things have happened before.

Chrome showing all for me Evil.

[bluechef 3]

to be honest I have never even noticed this before, but it is there on my page as we speak.

Showing for me as well

The mystery deepens. I can see the topic history when I am not logged in:



But this is what I get when I log in:



The same pattern (logged in, can't see; not logged in, can see) occurs across multiple browsers and platforms on my laptop, desktop and in Internet cafes.

As I said earlier, there have been brief spells in the past when one board feature or the other wouldn't work for a few days, but usually it didn't affect the computers in the Internet cafes. I'll see what happens,

Yup. It's just the "Go to top" button.

The one obvious difference is the Group you are in.

What is 'Major Participant'...... what differences are there in the settings for this Group?

There may even be errors in that Group, or errors not seen when you are 'elsewhere'

I suggest MM put you back into another group,Particpant, or Member or whatever, and see how that looks.

That might be the change. . I'm not able to do much up here in ubon with my mobile, but will look at it when I get back.

[MM 6,562]

The natives say hi and wish you to have patience.

[Evil Penevil 7,628]

Say hi back and I'll give you teddy bears to take to them next time.

I thought that might be the case, too. As I understand it, the "Major Participant" group includes BMs who upload a lot of photos and have exhausted the allowance most member have. But I ran out of space for photos several weeks ago and MM fixed that the next day via the "Major Participant" group. The problem with not seeing the topic history began only two days ago.

Okay. . How about going into your browser settings and deleting all Pattaya Talk cookies and cache data?

You'll have to login again, but that might fix it.
