There is a glitch in the system between the “Latest Comments” and the link to the actual highlighted stories and comments therein. The comments don’t appear until the next day.
I just thought you should know, because it’s been going on now for about a month.
Thanks will let IT guy know.
From the Cal Catholic IT man:
“It could be the web browser is not reloading the page anew… try doing a clear cache and then load the page again… I run into that refresh issue a lot across the internet. It’s a quirk of the web browsers. They preload pages and miss updates as a result. That would explain why it shows after you return the next day. The browser loads it afresh.”
I think we’re all having the same problem. I also hesitate to do a clear cache due to its inadvertent wiping out passwords, etc. Any other suggestions?
