The last couple of days I have given posters Reputation points, but I didn't get a window in which to type specific comments on the post. Will the two scripts you just ran likely clear this up?

I remember a few months ago a posting encouraged TSTers to make specific comments, rather than just giving people a "like" click.

This site does not do reputation comments. Never has. We switched October 1.

By site I mean with the IPS forum.

I understand. Thanks.

I don't think the new site supports reputation comments.

Anyone know what is that blue line that sometimes appears between posts?

New posts (to you) are below it. Posts you've read are above it.

I've noticed that when I click on threads I've already subscribed to I am taken to the first page of the thread instead of the last read post. Not that big a deal to click "last" every time but was wondering if that feature was ever coming back?

Where are you clicking the thread?

Because…

Click the star or circle at the front of the title. You're taken to the first unread post.

If you click the title of the topic you're taken to the topic. If you click the "go to first unread post" icon you're taken to the first unread post.

Somehow I never noticed.

Well, that's quite a Christmas present we've just given you then!

It happens to all of us!

The site doesn't seem to "remember me", even though the box is checked. It did this in the beginning, was one of my personal peeves with the new site, but it "went away".

Now it is doing it again, it remembers my login info but still requires that I re-login (is that a word?) each time, which, when added to the fact that you have to log-in twice for some unfathomable reason, can be a little irksome.

This is a hit or miss issue, meaning some days it's an issue and some days it isn't, but I often have to re-sign-in multiple times a day. Even if my TST visits are mere minutes apart...What's up with that?

I had the same issues, and even got emails saying "We miss you" that told me I haven't signed on in 2 weeks.

Those emails were unrelated to the issue @Ernest Jones is talking about.

Best I can tell you is to clear your cache and cookies (for just this site - you don't have to clear ALL your cookies), and then restart the computer.

That's to @Ernest Jones, the second paragraph…

Yes, I meant them as separate entities that were not directly related. Sorry for the confusion.

I can duplicate this when I hit "Activity" only on the bar at the top:

But if I hover over Activity, and then select one of the options underneath like New Content or one of my Activity Streams, then I stay logged in.

If I do accidentally hit just "Activity" and I see I'm logged out (which is happening every time right now but it's been a while since I've cleared cache/cookies for this site), I just hit the back button and try again. I stay logged in.

UPDATE: All I actually needed to do was hit "Refresh" button, and I would get the page logged in again.  Now when I hit "Activity," it all works just fine.

It might not be a feature anymore, but is it possible to go directly to the last page of a thread from New Content in a thread I've not read before?

I sometimes want to jump straight to the last page of long threads I haven't read before.

I believe that if you click the time it will take you to the last post, and from there, a "Page Up" will get you home. Or click the little arrow in the bottom right corner.
