When I am entering the new sweepstakes, after clicking on the new sweepstakes for the day, the sweepstakes I have
entered, (example; facebook, or 24 hour) always turns green after clicking on, then I know I have entered them. Now
it is not turning green, sometimes I fall behind and then catch up. It makes it so much easier when my sweepstakes that I have clicked on are highlighted green. Then I know where I have left off. What can I do to remedy this problem?

Mine still turns green. I suppose you can always put a check in the sweepscheck box so you know you entered.

Yes, I do check them, but when I go to the New Sweepstakes page, at a glance I new where I left off before, because it
was green, now I have no idea, its just time consuming to have to go back and figure out where I left off. Thank You.

I'm not sure if this is helpful, but what you describe only happens to me after I clear my history. Do you clear your history every day (or maybe cookies - I haven't tried that recently)?

I agree with arrtup3. That only happens to me when I clear my cookies and/or history. You said "at a glance I new where I left off before", So are you leaving, coming back, and finding the listing titles are no longer green?
If that's the case then you have your browser options set to "never remember history". If you're using FireFox click on "tools" in your menu bar at the top of your FireFox browser. Choose "options" then click the "privacy" tab. You should now see a drop down box. Choose "Remember history" in that drop down box then click "Ok".
If you're using Internet Explorer open your browser to any page and click " Alt + X". In the box that opens choose "Internet options". In the next box that pops up un-check the box that says "Delete browsing history on exit". You may also want to click "settings" right beside that and at the bottom of the next box that pops up increase the number of "Days to keep pages in history" to perhaps 2 or 3. When all done click "ok" and "apply".

Hollyberry- hope it is the solution.  Goodguy - thanks much. I was thinking of that too, but being insecure and self-taught I didn't want to suggest too much. Glad you did. |

I thought HISTORY too when I read the OP arrtup3 - goodguy explained it so well, I commented and *meant* to C&P it to a sticky, but got sidetracked - ty for the reminder!!!    I put it here: Click Here and Other Questions http://www.sweepstakesplus.com/smf/click-here-and-other-questions-t18815.0.html |

Checked the "days to keep pages of history" it was set at 20 days. I deleted pages of history, and this fixed the problem. Apparently 20 days is too long, it could not hold any more memory. It's working, problem solved. Thank you so much to all who helped, I would never have been able to figure this out.

So glad you got the answer! It really does help to see at a glance which sweeps or categories you have already clicked on.
