Title: Posts should be showing up in watchlist but are not? Post by: Peter Lambert on July 10, 2013, 08:56:12 PM I thought I saw this happening a while ago, and I just noticed it for sure happening right now: I clicked on the 'Watchlist' link, didn't see anything there, then I clicked on 'Show unread posts' and as I got to the bottom of the page I noticed a very familiar title, a thread which should be on my watchlist. I clicked back on 'watchlist', but the new post was not there. Sort of confused, I read the new post in the thread, and was going to add it to the watchlist, but I noticed instead of a 'watch' link in the thread it has the 'unwatch' link. So the post should have been in my watchlist but it was not. Is this a glitch in the forum software?

I've seen similar and I believe it happens when someone edits a post, it shows as unread but doesn't show up in the watchlist.

Not implying this happened to you of course, but that's worth considering. |
