Disappearing Boards

First, it was the Game Servers board, and now the RP Board has disappeared from view for me. They're not hidden or anything, they just aren't appearing. I had Milky view them, and the Online List wasn't able to tell me where he was.

As you can see, neither board shows up. Dunno what's going on, but I figured I should make the issue known.

Probably not the issue, but could you go to your profile page, then "Modify Profile", followed by "Ignore Boards Options". Just check if you have any of the boxes ticked.

I didn't even realize that was there. Still, not a thing was checked. The boards just vanished.

Suspected that. That's pretty much the limits of my knowledge on how to fix it. Let's see what DZ has to say.

I cleared my cookies, and it logged me out. When logged out, I saw the boards. When I logged back in, they disappeared again. I'll continue messing with it and see if I get anything to happen.

EDIT: Just in case, I tried logging in on Firefox too, to see if it was just the browser. Didn't show up there either.

I'ma check your account, but since I don't know what I'm going to be doing, I can't promise anything xD.

DZ will fix your issue if I can't tho.

Edit: I don't see anything wrong on your settings and you definitely don't have any of those boards ignored. I moved your member group to something else, then changed you back to see if that would reset your forum options.

I don't think it's browser related. I've tried Opera and Firefox, and both had the issue.

Still nothing.

Under "Profile", "Account Settings", and "Group Membership", make sure that "Registered Members" is selected, and NOT "View Political".  See if that works, as it has caused problems before :P

:facepalm: Sorry, just saw this edit

Ha! It's fixed now. Many thanks, whoever ended up fixing it.

There you go xD, try rejoining the political board now, because I think I didn't move you back after messing with your account.

Look at the image carefully. Notice how the General Discussion and Star Fox Series headings have a "+" next to "Unread Posts", while all the others have a "-"?

The groups are collapsed. You probably got mouse-happy and accidentally collapsed them by clicking the "-". I think the db stores which groups you have collapsed, so that is why you kept seeing it in other sessions.

If it happens again, just click the "+" to re-expand the group.

I collapsed those two groups to get both of the problem boards in the same screenshot, actually. It was the Game Servers board in SFO Stuff and the RP section in the Creative Works boards. After the problem was fixed, I realized I had also lost access to the Welcome Wagon, but that wasn't a big deal.

So yeah, it wasn't because of collapsed boards. I couldn't even see them in the Online List when someone was viewing them.
