View First Unread



Recommended Posts

That feature depends on Cookies being stored on your computer.

I have posted to the LBT site from 9 different computers in 5 different houses, using 6 different operating systems (versions of Windows, Mac and Linux) and with all systems, the forum knows which threads I have read and not read.

If they had the feature of "View First Unread", it would be different at each computer based upon what the last thread that I read from each computer.

I tried that for a while with Windows 95 back in the 90's. I had to move my "history file" from computer to computer using a floppy, but Windows would tell me that the file was protected and could not be over-written, so I had to use a spacial program to get around Windows, by booting to DOS.

I know it is a pain, especially with "Hot" threads like the "Antisemitism in France" thread was. You come back to LBT after a few hours and thread had grown by 5 pages. WOW!! It was hard to figure out where I had left off reading. And I am getting old and senile.

Sometimes progress seems like a step backward.:noidea:

I don't understand why you'd be having a problem with this; it seems to be working for me.

What isn't working for me is the automatic login. Is anyone else having problems with that? I come to the site and am greeted as a guest (from any of three computers that I use). But then I click on "Today's Posts" and I'm then logged in and shown the list of threads with new posts.

Weird!!

Leatha, I noticed you sign about DVT,s. I have just started getting over having them in my legs. First the right and then aweek later the left. OUCH

My legs have been so swollen and in pain. I spent one week in the hospital and then 3 weeks in a nursing home. I ended up getting them a week after my band was put in. Not sure if that was the cause or not. I have always had very bad legs, such as swelling, vains, ect. So who knows, I am finally able to get on a pair of jeans... let me know if you have had them and the cause, ect. Any info would be of a great help since I almost didn't make it with my first and hopefully my last episode.

Thanks, Debbie Sorry this came up under my daughter,s user name, I am using her computer so I guess that is the reason. LOL

I'm thinking this HAS to be something with computer settings. I say that because I can access LBT from my PC and from my laptop, which reside on the same network behind the same IP. On my computer, regardless of how many times I login, I get the screen for users who are not logged in. Until I click on a thread, and then all of a sudden I'm logged in. I have the "remember me" option selected, and I know I'm cookied on that computer. When I get on my laptop, my login sticks from the get-go.

With the travel I do, I've probably hit LBT from 4 or 5 different computers and countless IPs/firewalls, etc. But my PC is the only one that does this.

This is so pathetic. I had never noticed the first unread option before. What a useful feature.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
