During a recent trip, I didn’t log on to SDMB. When I returned home I clicked on New Posts and there were 5 pages to view. I viewed page one and two. When I clicked to view page three, I got a message saying there were no matches for my search. So, I clicked on new posts again. But now there were only two pages. And I could not recover page 3, 4 and 5. This has happened before. Any one else experience this? Is there a solution?

What is the trigger for “New Posts”? The last time you logged on? The last time you posted in any thread?

There have been reports of problems with the read/unread timer having issues. This might be related.

This sounds very much like the Read-Unread timer problem striking again.

Thanks troops. I think the new posts trigger is your last visit.  
After 2 pages, I get the " there is no results for your search" message.
