It seems to have been a stored cookie issue.
I logged out, deleted cookies for www.wxforum.net, logged in and it's working for me too.

Strange.. no underlying forum software changes were done (Last tweaks were mid-November after the database issue).

Clearing the session cookie fixed it for me too. Strange all three devices I used today (two laptops and my phone) all had the problem occur at the same time.

I observed the problem, have done nothing, and now everything is fine ?

... before returned a completely blank page.
Imagine what you will KNOW tomorrow !

Yes, I got the blank page also.  Strangely, I'd put some debugging code in the sub-page invoked, but it wasn't even called.  That's when I tried the logout/clear cookies/login and it worked again.  So, the issue seemed to be somewhere upstream of the actual functional script being invoked for unread content.  I still suspect it was cookie related, but have left well-enough alone for now.
