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

It's probably because of this great idea that the forum is in a frame, while everyone condemned frames forever a decade ago. But it doesn't mean Firefox in not to blame too.

The bug is actually that the AB forum url (the default /en/forum one) Does NOT contain any "?" or "&" behind any .php links.

Cause that would auto disables the caching of the forum. :)

I don't know about Firefox, but if that's the case, you can bookmark this link and use it instead of the website tab:

http://www.abandonia.com/en/forum?url=index.php

Etc, for example if you like to enter through the new posts seach like myself:

http://www.abandonia.com/en/forum?ur....php?do=getnew

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.

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.

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

Any details on this? :)

That's all there is:

Code:

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Cache-Control" CONTENT="no-cache"> 

<meta http-equiv="PRAGMA" content="NO-CACHE">

<meta http-equiv="EXPIRES" content="-1">

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