Several web site issues.

Hey guys,

I've been here for a while now <img src="smileys/smiley17.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> and I see some minor issues with the website. So I thought I'd let you guys know.

1. Alert system

At least for me, the forum alert system isn't working. It shows me that I have some alerts, but when I click, I see 5 days old alerts. When I click Show all alerts, I still don't see the new ones. So the system knows and tells me that something happened (someone replied to my thread etc) but doesn't show me exactly what.

2. Reputation system

Also the reputation is tricky, it shows me different numbers depending on what web site page I am. For example, on Home I have 845 rep and 1 gold and 3 bronze. On Forums I have 907 rep and 1 gold and 4 bronze.

3. Preview post

The preview post button always shows me "There is nothing to preview" message.

4. Smileys

Whenever I click the smileys, it always gets added to the end of the message, not at current cursor position.

None of those are big issues and I can live with all of them just fine.

Cheers!

Yes, I've also found the 'Preview' button (right below me now in the Reply editor) useless (Windows 7/IE9).

Yes, just a minor annoyance and I've lived with it since joining.

Some update here regarding #1 (the old alerts) - apparently has something to do with the caching. If I go to "View all alerts" I see the old alerts, but if I refresh I see the new ones. Using Chrome on Windows 7.

Thanks for reports guys, am looking into this issue. The forum seems to be causing some difficult problems, I have a lot on my plate at the moment but will get round to investigating these issues soon.

So regarding #1 and #2, there could be caching issues for me again (works fine after a Ctrl+F5). Not sure who's caching the wrong thing and where. Don't spend too much time on them for now. Thanks for the replies.
