In my network profile inbox I have lots of items. Wanted to see the first items I got so clicked the last page:

Just to be greeted with cryptic and misleading "No inbox items":

I don't want to click "next" 522 times. Can this please be fixed?

On further investigation using the direct URLs (which are normally loaded via AJAX) I found the last page is actually 521 and it contains exactly 20 items.

Edit: now that I got more items, I can indeed see the last page so the previous assumption is proved: page count is incorrect if last page has 20 items exactly.

  • No repro here. I can go to the last page easily (by clicking on the last page number).

  • @hims056 just wait until the last page will have 20 items (i.e. (total items % 20 == 0) ;)

  • It seems the global inbox is cached as well.

  • @hims056 done! 5 items should be added, cache or no cache :)

  • Another issue is that there is no pagination button if there is no inbox item on that page.

  • @hims056 yeah, that message is AJAX response that actually means "there are no inbox items for page [page here]"

It pains me to remove an "off by one" error, but if I must, I must.

  • Thanks! Is this already on production? I still see same issue here... (source, which I assumed is the same root cause behind those two.)

  • @ShadowWizard Same bug, two different places. I'm rolling out a fix for the favorites tab as well.
