Messages with summaries?! Bhairitu, do you mean messages with all the previous messages unless snipping has occurred? FWIW, I get the FFL posts in my yahoo email inbox. Yesterday I was looking at them in the archives, I think what you all call message view.
Months ago I had a Romney ad that I could not get rid of. Installed Something Plus, and all ads gone forever. Now there's a big blank space where ads were (-: Anyway, I've figured out a strategy for dealing with scrolling jumping paging process. So yahoo can keep crumbling cookies to their heart's content! ________________________________ From: Bhairitu <noozg...@sbcglobal.net> To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, August 11, 2013 11:15 AM Subject: Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: FFL looks different this morning Yahoo probably changed the way their cookies worked when they added advertising to the pages. So any old cookies may no longer have worked. There were probably meetings over this at Yahoo between engineers and they probably figured to just let the users figure it out because making the old cookies work might not be feasible. I also checked this morning with the Android browser where the first full message page had the order one way and the next page the opposite including messages from the first page that shouldn't have been displayed. By clicking the date order then all pages started to display in that same order and no repeated messages. Going back later and checking the settings stuck. Now they might mess with the cookies again and break it but just click the sort order again. And BTW, this is assuming you are looking at the messages with summaries as I am doing which is what sounds like most folks here do. So that's the way the "cookies crumble."
