Dave,
Every time I return to the Board I have to hit the refresh buttom to pull in any new messages since I was there the last time. Is there something I need to reset?

I HAVE THE SAME ISSUE.

This is a "caching" problem; your browser is showing you a version of the page that you viewed previously, rather than the current version of the page (that includes the missing messages).

I have changed a setting on the web server so that pages aren't cached (actually, they're set to expire 1 second after you view the page) ... this problem should go away now, though you might have to do the refresh/reload dance for pages that you've viewed up until today (April 2, 11:19 a.m. Eastern time).

Please let me know if the attempted fix is successful. (Post a reply message into this topic.) Thanks!
