Yea this problem is very annoying and is present only in this site.

Alright, thanks so far for your help guys. I tried all the other ways to access the forums, but no luck. I'll stick with hitting ctrl+r until the actual content is shown for now.

My actual "workaround" is using Opera as alternative browser. Seems like it displays the forums as it should be. For now ^^

Well, don't wanna be Captain Obvious here but it doesn't work. Have to keep deleting the entire cache.

I have stickied this thread because it keeps coming up again and again. If you're having issues with posts not showing in the forums and refreshing not working, you are most likely using firefox, and in that case, this is the fix for you, enjoy

Indeed the only solution we currently have is a huge overkill, browsing without cache is a huge step backwards.

I guess the problem is because the forum uses the website login--surely through one of those Kosta & Studentis hacks--and the website displays the forum inside a frame. The forum pages have those metas, but the website pages don't.

At least I can confirm the report that I've never had problems with Opera, for what it's worth. Although I always enter through http://www.abandonia.com/en/forum?ur....php?do=getnew and then I open each thread in a new tab, thus getting rid of the frame, then I mark all as read in the first tab with frame and close it. I know that if I'm inactive too long I get logged out and I can only log back into the forum through a website page again.

It's quite confusing :| I started checking the forums seperately ( abandonia.com/vbullet/ ) because of the caching problem.

Edit: I also tried clearing my cookies and cache, which didn't help. Just for info

I just noticed similar problems with my Firefox 8. Abandonia is the only site I'm using with such caching issues. Just tried the latest Chrome version and I have some other issues with the forum (even though I was logged into the site the forums thought I was logged out).

You should think about implementing some kind of work around since this can be very frustrating for new users.

I'm having the same sort of issues with Firefox 8 also. Kinda wish I hadn't upgraded from 3.6 now, since everything was working well with that.

The forum's http headers contain every possible meta tag that could prevent the forum pages from being cached.
