Favorites at log in not changing.

Have you cleared cache after this change?

Yes, inworld and relogged.

I have never managed to make favorites show on the login screen. I suspect the reason yours does not update and mine don't show is the same. I can't say for certain, though.

I did have a quick look around in the settings files and folders, but couldn't find any obvious reason (or cure) for the problem.

Hello Charolotte. Never till now i achieved to see my favorites in my log in page. I see only My Home and my last location and also i can type a different region.

Its a known bug, here are a couple of related JIRAs

https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/STORM-1145

https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/STORM-984

 

[Luc Starsider]

@Peewee. Thanks for posting those jiras. Reading them made me do some experiments which I believe made me come up with a fix for this issue.  At least I hope it will work for others than me.

@Charlotte. Make sure View Display names is checked in Me->Preferences->General. Relog. That should be it. You may need to relog a couple of times, but it should be enough. I added a more comprehensive explanation here: https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/STORM-984

Hope this helps. :matte-motes-nerdy: (He's my favorite smiley.)

Glad I helped, thats a great JIRA fix Luc, I knew you weren`t just a pretty face hehe....Love your last comment on there too LOL

[Luc Starsider]

lol. As long as it is a reproducible repro, it's fine.

Yes, display names have bugged me since they were first talked about. I never understood the point of them and refuse to relate to them. :smileymad:

Maybe you could try to see if what I suggested above (or below. I don't know where... ) and come back and say how it went? It would be good to hear from several people if it works.

Ok, Luc. I fixed it, here's what I did. Emptied my Cache by deleting everything here > C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\SecondLife. That of course reset all my settings to default. Logged in. Made sure display names was checked, made sure show my favorites at login was checked and also! made sure Me > preferences > general > start location > show on login was checked. (yeah, took me a few times to figure that one out) So, did that, logged out, went to login and only 3 of my 12 faves there! Logged in, waited for inventory to load, unched all of the above, rechecked each one, again, clicking ok after each. logged out, went to login, wallah! Problem solved thanks to you, and thanks to peewee, of course

[Peewee Musytari]

Woots good job Charlotte

[Charolotte Caxton]

thanks to you providing the JIRA for Luc to mention the Display names that made me do what all I did! lol

[Peewee Musytari]

Teamwork lol

[Luc Starsider]

Definite teamwork. For sure!

@Charlotte. Glad it's sorted! It does sound as if you had to jump through a few more hoops than I did while testing this. (That is just so random.... . Literarily...) Main thing, it worked in the end.
