Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted March 4Mar 4 Alright, so this is my forum (in case it's needed for you to look at): https://forum.of-black.com/Recently I've started making new threads and even after updating the old ones, I haven't been able to get the boards on the "home" forum page to show the most recently updated one EVEN THOUGH that option is checked in the settings page. For fun, I tried to check a completely different option but it still didn't change. So my question is: What do I need to do to get the recently updated threads to show on the "home" screen board? Sorry if this is a stupid question, I just can't seem to figure it out. Thanks in advance!
March 4Mar 4 We would need to know where you are referring to. Are you looking to have it look like our home page here? Are you referring to the block on the right? (they are cached so are not instant update)

(they are cached so are not instant update)I have taken some pictures to show what I mean.First, I am referring to the topic shown (for example) here, so the topic that's "on top" of the board when you look at the "home" screen. Secondly, you can see here that I've updated another thread 6 hours ago and it is shown on top in the forum board but not on the home screen, I hope this helps you to understand what I mean.
March 5Mar 5 Author @Marc Should I make a support ticket for this? Or would that be inappropriate? I'm not sure which way to best go about this.
March 5Mar 5 Ive assigned developers to advise first of all, in case this is something as simple as that area being cached. If we need a ticket, we can create one from here

My bad, I apologize for taking your time and appreciate your nice response!

Could I confirm you are on the latest beta?
March 19Mar 19 Author 1 minute ago, Marc said:Could I confirm you are on the latest betaOh wow, that would be amazing. How do I check? I'm sorry, I'm completely new to your software and I've only had it for like a month so I'm not super familiar yet. I saw an update like an hour ago and updated to Invision Community v5.0.4. Is this the latest? Or am I missing a beta option somewhere?
March 19Mar 19 I've been saying beta every day, I think its just habit . No, hat is indeed final. Are you still seeing the issue? If so, could you check on a default unaltered theme, and if there are still issues, please give me an example on your site and can take a look
March 19Mar 19 Author This is the order it's in on the board: https://forum.of-black.com/forum/2-general-wurm-discussion/And on the home site you can see that it still says Miscarriages on top in the board. I posted on "Meditation Phrases" to make sure it registers a new post in an older subject. I cleared my cache and tried it on Google Chrome as well as Firefox and Opera and it gives the same result on all. Edited March 19Mar 19 by AliceJBlack Forgot a word
March 19Mar 19 It shows mediation phrases at the top. Its likely just caching you are seeing at this point :)

Its likely just caching you are seeing at this point :)Does it show Meditation Phrases at the top in the "home" screen for you? Or just on top of the list in the forum itself? Cause it's on top of the forum but not on top in the general view of all boards if you know what I mean.I mean like this:
