PUMP IT UP .. promo ad not going away Archived From: FatWallet |
I am using FF 3 on XP SP2.
Here's the list of cookies on my system with promo bar.

With promo bar closed it has the same cookies. I think FW add a cookie (nav_bar_promo or something) but I don't see it.
Quick Summary is created and edited by users like you... Add FAQ's, Links and other Relevant Information by clicking the edit button in the lower right hand corner of this message.
It used to. I believe that's handled on FW servers now, and no cookie is required.
I imagine this would present problems if you weren't signed in, though. Perhaps a dev could clarify!
the promo banner closing was controlled by cookie, now it is set by user account in our db.
When a new promo is launched, the system should start showing it to you - basically, if you stay logged in, you should only need to close a banner once per new promotion.
Is something different than that happening?

It's not working for me. I stay logged in all the time. I even logged out once and logged back in but the promo bar still stays.
When I close it, it goes away until I move to a different topic.

Thanks for this change. I hated closing every promo on every device.
It's still not working for me. I am experiencing the same thing on a different computer (one work, one home).
Just got a response back from support (after I contacted them via support ticket) that it's a bug and they are working on it.

I got a reply from Mars that he was able to close it using my account, somehow all my tries to close it did not register in my account.

We have another user with this issue, and we think it might be a FF3 add on.

But I had the same problem on two different computers, one with FF3 and other with FF2.

Did both computers have the same stuff installed? (ad block, noscript sound like culprits - but i don't know much about either at the moment)
Yes, pretty much the same.
Fatwallet.com is in the safe list for no script.

i'll look more into the add-ons you're using and see if i can find any potential problems.
i think the promotion is over now though, so testing will be a challenge 
I'll post back here if i can figure anything out!
gujjuguy said:Fatwallet.com is in the safe list for no script.Not sure if this will help you debug your issue but it can't hurt:
The part of the JavaScript code that is not working for you is a XMLHttpRequest used with the jQuery library function getJSON(). That request is what is used to tell our servers that you clicked the close button.

So the promo ad finally went away -- now I can't find the thread to see who won. Help?
