It's working fine for me in Safari, Firefox & IE7.

<puzzled>

Are yo not getting a drop-down menu at all?

No drop down menu. Haven't changed anything in Firefox 2.0, it simply quit working. It just goes to the top of the page.

I truly have no idea what's up ... I've attached a screenshot to show that it's working on my machine.

Did you get logged out? Maybe loose the cookie? Someone else use the computer and delete the cookies Either way you would need to log back in to turn on the new posts feature again.

I'd thought that, originally, too ... you'll notice that he's posting from his user account, though, so it's not the issue.

Fine for me too... Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.8.1.1) Gecko/20061204 Firefox/2.0.0.1
OS 10.4.8 new MacBook 8)

Good luck, hope the problem gets solved.

I've had problems with it in the past.

[Edit] It's happening again. Restarting Safari doesn't help. Aaargh!

I think I may have found a work-around for when the "New Posts" or "Mark Forums Read" doesn't work. If it happens to you, click on the "User CP" button, and then try again.
