I've been noticing for a whle that clicking 'view new content' doesn't actually return the latest posts, instead the same set from a few hours (or more) previous.

The old 'view new posts' button worked faultlessly, however not so now :(

Has anyone else been having this problem?

It works on/off for me.. When I turn my computer on and open SAU it all works fine, but if I leave my computer on and not use it for a few hours, when I press the view new content button i'll have 1 very recent post at the top on page 1 then the rest are from earlier that day, and the newest posts randomly pop up on say page 2 or 3 then page 4 will be the actual recent/new posts.

If that makes any sense. whistling.gif

well it doesnt work for me. on the first page i have 1 or 2 topics within the last 10 mins, and they space apart from there, till by the bottom of the page i have 7hr old posts.

like so:

edit: 10 mins later, and this post still hasnt made it to the first page

+1 for not working

EDIT: I got confused

I thought this was about the "My content" button in the dropdown menu behind the username.

That doesn't work, like this post should be in there now but it's not.

i just discovered something strange.

view new content >> at the top of page 1 the first two or three posts are within a few minutes, then taper off to a few hours old.

top of page 2, the first few posts follow on in timeline from the latest at the top of page 1.

top of page 3, same thing happens.

so basically if you go thru the pages and only look at the first 2 or 3 post at the top of each page, they are the latest posts.

does that make sense? strange.

edit: usually by the afternoon, this isnt an issue, and new posts are displayed correctly from the first page onwards.

    • Sounds good.  I don't 100% understand what your getting at here. When you say, "I keep seeing YouTube videos where people have new paint and primer land on the old clearcoat that isn't even dulled down" do you mean this - there is a panel with factory paint, without any prep work, they paint the entire panel with primer, then colour then clear?  If that's what you mean, sure it will "stick" for a year, 2 years, maybe 3 years? Who knows. But at some stage it will flake off and when it does it's going to come off in huge chunks and look horrific.  Of course read your technical data sheet for your paint, but generally speaking, you can apply primer to a scuffed/prepped clear coat. Generally speaking, I wouldn't do this. I would scuff/prep the clear and then lay colour then clear. Adding the primer to these steps just adds cost and time. It will stick to the clear coat provided it has been appropriately scuffed/prepped first.  When you say, "but the new paint is landing on the old clearcoat" I am imagining someone not masking up the car and just letting overspray go wherever it wants. Surely this isn't what you mean?  So I'll assume the following scenario - there is a small scratch. The person manages to somehow fill the scratch and now has a perfectly flat surface. They then spray colour and clear over this small masked off section of the car. Is this what you mean? If this is the case, yes the new paint will eventually flake off in X number of years time.  The easy solution is to scuff/prep all of the paint that hasn't been masked off in the repair area then lay the paint.  So you want to prep the surface, lay primer, then lay filler, then lay primer, then colour, then clear?  Life seems so much simpler if you prep, fill, primer, colour then clear.  There are very few reasons to go to bare metal. Chasing rust is a good example of why you'd go to bare metal.  A simple dent, there is no way in hell I'm going to bare metal for that repair. I've got enough on my plate without creating extra work for myself lol. 
    • Hi, Got the membership renewal email but haven't acted yet.  I need to change my address first. So if somebody can email me so I can change it that would be good.
