Forums Showing No Activity

I'm having the same problem, GM just posted the same issue.

I can't say I have noticed this feature before, where does it normally show up. But I have noticed today that when you click on a persons profile no activity shows up.

@Bish, I'm having that same thing, also when I look at My Activity tab it shows No Activity.  I first noticed it yesterday, the spot at the top of the Forums page where it typically shows the most recent updates to the threads shows "No activity".

I thought it odd that no one posted anything for hours. This morning when I got up, I checked my email and I usually have several emails from threads I subscribe to, but zip.

I don't ever seem to have had, or at least noticed, that feature you mention. I have only seen when there are new posts when I go to my discussions or the View recent posts link. But there is certainly something missing today.

Could somebody clarify where exactly this "no activity" thing is? (always keen to learn a new way to keep up on new posts)

I was also surprised this morning to see no email notifications at all.

When I first log into FSM, and go to the Forums and Discussions page, there is a section at the top of the page that says Activity Message List, under that there are tabs for All, My Activity, Messages, and People.  Below all that is the list of all of the Forums.  The problem right now is that the upper section has a blue box in it that states No activity.  Plus, we are not getting emails, from topics that we are subscribed to, that lets us know that someone has posted to that specific thread.

Well that all sounds a bit odd. I have certainly never seen what you have just described and I see no blue box either. maybe its down to what browser you are using.

Thank you, j.

I'm using Google Chrome, since I have not had any luck using IE.

I use Chrome as well and bookmarked that page so it comes up each time I log on. I'll have to backtrack to explain how I got to that page in the first place.

Sounds like it must be a Chrome feature, I use IE.

OK, here's how you get to the page we are talking about. I stumbled upon it purely be accident, but like it better so I bookmarked it.

The normal URL is http://cs.finescale.com/f/. Just remove the /f/ and use the URL http://cs.finescale.com/. That will take you to the page we are talking about. When it's working properly, it will show all recent activity regardless of the particular forum. Now it just shows "NO Activity"

Oh, now I  see it. Thanks MC.

Thanks Steve. I think I have come across that page before by accident. usually when I have selected the Forum & Community link rather than the drop down box I usually use. I can only guess the problem is linked with the same message on peoples profiles.

I have a feeling it has something to do with the upgrade FSM is doing for the new roll out Aug 5th.

Well, it's about 6:25 and still getting no activity from FSM.

Its 0822 MST here in Idaho, still no activity

It's 3:25 PM EST in Pa. and still no activity.

4.43 pm in San Francisco. No Activity. I've PM'd the mods a couple times. I don't think they like me...

I just noticed that on my profile page where I used to be able to see my own activity,it now says no activity.This is where I used to be able to follow up on my own postings.

Tojo, ye, that's the bit I was referring to in my first post. The two features must be linked.

I'm able to easily work around this snafu, however I rely on the email notifications to host my group builds. Without them I find I'm not being as attentive to them as I want because I don't know when someone has posted an update. I'm not able to log onto the forum all the time and some posts fall though the cracks.

I noticed this issue for a few days and now I have to click on my posts by my Avatar to get the current activity. This is probably a snafu  with the system when FSM did whatever change they did and are probably unaware of the problem.

I shot Tim  a PM to read this thread to see if the issue can be resolved.

I just started getting my notices again this morning.

Yea! I have my email notices back

Well, no response from Tim after 5 days so it may be he no longer is with FSM?

Keep in mind, FSM is probably going through some serious changes from Editor down to the bottom; not to mention a huge change within FSM site. Relax and roll with the changes. This shall come to pass and we'll be back up normally, soon.

The one glaring thing I have noticed the mods/admins not stepping in to lock or close controversial threads regarding the Confederate flag threads. Not that the threads strayed off course but it 'could have."

Hey guys,

Sorry about the seriously tardy response. We've been absolutely slammed here. Is anyone still experiencing issues with getting updates?

Thanks,

Tim
