MEDIA REPORTS (TOPICS) has 40 pages, which must be the limit.
At the front door, you are greeted with a post from Nov. 2002......skipping to the back door you find the last MEDIA REPORT was posted on July 23, 2005, which would be the last report posted before the "NEW OCMB" came out of the closet.

It is now August 8.....so there are two weeks of *NEW* News that are missing.

No doubt this should be corrected.....right?

Also could something be done so that the "NEW' News is seen FIRST?

Thanks,

Tigger

I've been looking up and down on the "Media Reports" forum, but cannot see what you are describing.

When I enter the forum I can see the latest topics at page 1, and I have allso seen new posts and topics apear the last days.

At the bottom of the forum list one can change the sort order so that the oldest shows first. But after reopening the forum this returns to "ordinary" sorting. (To rule out this had not done it).

The only thing I can think is that you might be using a favorite to open the Media Reports forum, and that this link was created after the forum had been sorted the other way? Let me know if this is not he case.

Allso you can double check by following this link:

Anyone else seeing what tigger is?

I have no probs when clicking on Media Reports - currently Arnies "Crunch Gym" thread is top-of-the-bill.

Tigger, switch your lights off and blow your candles out - cats see better in the dark.

Nope I enter Media Reports after checking in to OCMB. Either by clicking on MEDIDA REPORTS or going to LAST DAY and clicking on MEDIA REPORTS.

Here's the deal:

Page 1 first post

~~Quote~~



Page 1 of 40 [1978 Topics] Mark all topics read
Goto page:  1, 2, 3, ..., 38, 39, 40 Next

Skipping to page 40.....Last post shown:

URL for last page:

Operation Clambake Message Board :: View Forum - Media Reports
http://ocmb.xenu.net/ocmb/index.php?f=1 ... start=1950

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
P.S. These came from the link you provided in your post.

So could it be a webtv thing? Should there be an archive for old media reports?

Tigger, not seeing things that aren't there.....not seeing things that should be there......

P.S. While I have your attention.........could the first page have some space and a line between topics......like "Last Day"?

By moonlight, by sunlight, by candlelight, by no light.....click this, click that.....makes so difference......I get what I get.

Go to preferences/reading topics and change your "sort topics by" to last post and ascending. This should put the topic with the last post at the top of the list.

hboat got a real god suggestion there. Let us know how it turns out.

About the spacing: Andreas works on the design of the forums. He's away on a business trip currently. He'll probably read this when he returns, but I'll send an email to him anyway. (I'm sure he told me when he would return, but: I'm a great listener, but a lousy rememberer.)

Well I tried that and I got a post from 2001 first.

HOWEVER, you did solve my problem.
I put in "Last Post" and "Descending" and Eureka....all the missing media reports since July 23 appeared in a flash. It had been stuck with a "last Post" at July 23, 2005 and now it's unstuck and shows the last Media Report as the RADAR Mag. article posted today.

Thanks,
