"Only Items I Follow" filter

[afx]

This topic filter hasn't worked for me since the forum update.  Anyone having issues with it?

-I didn't even know it existed till I read your message here!!!!!!

Any plans to every fix this filter?  Its kinda pointless to follow a thread if the filter doesn't work.

This forum software is "leased" by us. This same software is used by many other online forums. It's owned by Invision Power Services, Inc.

We didn't write the code or create the software, so we can't "fix" any glitches in the software. We didn't create it, don't own it, and can't change it.

Well, if you guys lease it, you could ask the owner to fix it.

Just saying. I wouldn't use that anyway, but it seems to matter to some.

It works fine for me. Software issues like this are hard/impossible to troubleshoot when they don't affect everyone.

When a site works fine for some but not for others, it's not the site that's the problem... it's the user. Old, outdated web browsers are problem #1.

I'm using Google Chrome.

What browser are you using?

Usually I use Opera and IceDragon, but I just verified that it works fine for me in IE, Chrome, Opera, Safari, Edge, Firefox, and even other less common specialized ones like BlackHawk, WhiteHat and Midori.

Is this filter working for anyone else?

[MrBuick]

If you have any 3rd party plug-ins enabled, try disabling them for the site and see if it changes anything, especially if you use adblock plug-ins. Adblock plugins can be fantastic, but sometimes they inadvertently can cause features not to function because they incorrectly determine something to be an ad.

Doesn't work with the brand new Microsoft Edge running on  a completely different PC.

[MrBuick]

Hmm, my only other suggestion would be to double-check your notification settings on the forum and make sure the necessary check boxes are selected.

I had Microsoft load Windows 10 on my computer against my will.  Overall it seems to work fine but I don't want to use Edge or any of their programs as defaults.  When I went and tried to change my default browser back to Chrome, it wouldn't let me!
