Hi - I'm just wondering why suddenly the "Recent topics" list on the homepage, the "More recent posts" list and also the listed topics on each of the main forums pages has shrunk to only show those posted up to 2 days ago. It's fine for someone checking the site everyday, but I do prefer a longer list esp. when I've been away for a week or so.

Completely agree with Nesrin

Jun 2, 2008

I noticed this morning that I could actually only see the last 6 or 7 posts or so, I´m not actually sure whether this even covers the last 2 days.
I would also prefer to have it as it used to be or at least be given the option to choose how many post I would like to display.

A bug or a redesign?

Jun 2, 2008

Thanks, Jack. I suppose the other two askers expected it to be a bug, while I thought it was the result of a site redesign, hence the different forums.
Of course, I would have seen those two other threads if they'd appeared on my "recent topics" list!

But I realise now it has to be a bug, cause I'm sure many more posts have been made over the past two days.

Same here, it was 8 yesterday, 4 on the list today, and my setting is 30.
Trouble is, if the staff have the same problem, they won't see this thread!

I suppose we have to open support tickets...!

Same here

I sent in a support ticket-thought it was just my prob. I didn't (still can't) see the other forum posts on the topic. Hopefully it's just a bug. Fwiw-everything worked fine until today.

It was wrong for me last night as well.
Altho today the list is only 4 long, whereas last night it was 8 or 9.

Of course, perhaps, unlike me, you have a life away from your computer, and were fortunate enough not to be logged on to proz yesterday evening

Hi! The contest and logos and banners on the header taking too much space. Just a guess. Brandis

I agree, Nesrin. I have, in fact, just been away for 4 days and on my return find only 6 or 7 recent posts displayed. What's happened?
Please could the site staff return the "recent posts" page to the way it used to be.
Thanks in advance,
Jenny

It is on the home page.
Problem still appears when clicking on "more recent posts" link - I just did so and it displayed 7 or 8 threads only...

Edit - actually, it's not fine on the homepage either - this thread is under the "site forums" category, which I have selected for display, and yet this thread does NOT appear on the homepage list of topics.
So something has gone wrong somewhere....

Thanks Charlie

Can you check your "Most recent posts" list now? This should be back to normal. Please note also that not all topics will appear on the home page (see http://www.proz.com/faq/forums for more information). Thanks.

Thanks also for replying to what would have been my next question, namely why isn't this discussion appearing on the homepage!
