It always used to work for me too.
I've tried all the board styles; they all have the same effect.

Very strange - it works as expected on my wife's computer ie it is something specific to my similar desktop but I can't think what (I haven't placed any restrictions on what the site pages can do).
I'll just have to live with it; Many thanks to those who gave suggestions

Browser specific perhaps ? I know I see differences between how Firefox & Chrome handle certain sites |

It works ok in Edge!
In Google Chrome - add to a thread. On exit, the item is correctly starred. Read the post and exit it; refresh - the item is still starred.
Do the same in Edge and the item is no longer starred after reading the post and refreshing.
Then refreshing the Google Chrome browser, it still shows the thread as starred.
I'll just live with it cos there aren't a lot of posts nowadays (and I don't really want to switch to another browser)
Stay safe

Have you tried refreshing the page using Control + Shift + F5 |

Yep (for those who don't know, this bypasses the cache when refreshing the page)

I've had occasional problems with Chrome where I get stuck in a sort of login loop i.e. I go to a site (that I use regularly) enter my usename and password, click login and the page refreshes back to the same login page without logging me in.
When this happens sometimes Control + Shift + F5Control + Shift + F5 clears it, sometimes not.
Sometimes opening an incognito window and logging in there works, even after closing the window, sometimes not.
The only thing that seems to work consistently (but again not always) is Chrome menu/more tools/Clear browsing data and selecting cached images and files only
Very frustrating when it happens.
I tend to default to Firefox but also use Chrome regularly.
When I'm doing site/forum admin work I usually work in Firefox but have Chrome open to the same site (but not logged in) that way I can see how changes I make are working without continually logging out and in. |

Thanks Jimi
Just started trying to use Edge as default browser.
Turned off Myfeed and the background.
This works ok for this site (it is based on Chrome) and also appears fractionally faster (perhaps they just blink the page to make you think something is happening?)
I'll switch back to Chrome if the need arises

I use Brave, which is built on Chromium with additional security options. It is obviously close to Chrome but without all the Google handles. Chrome extensions work, for instance. The red stars work as expected for me. |
