Margaret CPA in OH Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 Recently I have been getting this message when I have finished reading all posts: Giant exclamation mark followed by Sorry, there is a problem There are no unread content items. Error code: 2S136/J Then I have to choose Forums to get back to General which shows as black as if there are unread messages. But there are none. I used to just be redirected back to the main General page. This began about the time one topic was moved to maybe e-file. Related? How can I get rid of this nuisance? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion EA Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 I, too, got that message (didn't note the error code, though). But, I did get back to the forums without them being black/unread. Also, it was about the time a thread was moved to another forum. I don't think it's recurred. But, I do remember it also in the distant past, at least once. Yours is recurring now, right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee B Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 Once in awhile, about every other year I will see a weird message, but I haven't seen this one . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margaret CPA in OH Posted August 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 Yes, recurs every time. I can get back but have to go to Forums, then choose General which is black for having unread messages but, of course, there are no unread messages. Oh, the pain of extra keystrokes!

jklcpa Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 I wonder if it's because I left a link in General Chat when I moved that post to the Drake subforum. Would you mark the Drake forum as "read" to see if that stops the message from appearing and let me know? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margaret CPA in OH Posted August 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2019 I've now marked all of them as 'read' including this one. I'll let you know what happens with the next posting. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Posted August 19, 2019 Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 I've installed an update that had become available while I was away on vacation. Also did some database cleanup. Between that and marking everything read, hopefully the issue goes away! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margaret CPA in OH Posted August 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2019 Thanks, Eric. When I marked ALL fora as read, even those I never read anyway, the issue has disappeared. I am so relieved to reduce my keystrokes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catherine Posted August 26, 2019 Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 I get this one, sometimes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jklcpa Posted August 26, 2019 Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 I moved a new member's post from "Help" to General Chat the other day, and purposely didn't leave a link in hopes that you all wouldn't get those messages. Sorry. I've also deleted a couple of spam messages from Russia & China recently, so if you see them before I do, please use the report function that will generate an email message to that something needs attention.

Margaret CPA in OH Posted August 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 Catherine, that is exactly the message I tried to describe in the first post. The only thing that fixed it was to mark every single forum as read, whether or not it was. No problems since then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnH Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 I like having to do extra keystrokes. I need the exercise. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion EA Posted August 28, 2019 Report Share Posted August 28, 2019 I've had that message. I think when just going back to the main screen and expecting to see the list of threads. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
