Trip Report page weirdly maintains other users' search terms?

Sometimes when loading the basic trip report page (turns-all-year.com/trip-reports), instead of showing all of the recent reports, the TRs will already be filtered, with some selections and a search term present. Like right now, it has "Blewett Pass" filled in the text search, and "2020", "Dec", and "WA elsewhere" selected in the row above that. This is not a search that I have done, so I assume somehow the database is maintaining what some other user has recently searched for. It's not a big problem, in that I can always just hit Reset and continue, but it's often confusing to see a different set of search results each time I visit, possibly more confusing for others that don't realize it does this.

Also possibly related (though fairly inconsequential), the text at the top of this page, just below the blue banner, sometimes has the title of a specific TR, for no apparent reason. Right now, it shows " Home > Trip Reports > Juneuary 17-18, 2009, Mt Rainier, Fuhrer Finger", and again that's on the main TR page (turns-all-year.com/trip-reports).

I've gone to the TRs and randomly seen some search terms a few times lately, not sure whether they were other people's or mine.

Yeah, it is hard to reproduce since it is intermittent. It was working normally most times I checked today. But it did happen again tonight. Now (as of 10:26pm), I'm getting a "copper peak" search term popping up. It happens the same for me on three different devices (not logged in): Opera 72.0.3815.320 on Windows (screenshot attached), Safari on iOS 13.5.1, and Chrome 83.0.4103.106 on Android. All viewing turns-all-year.com/trip-reports, nothing else in the URL. (If I hit "Reset", then it adds on the parameters to the URL that reset all the search fields, and that works just fine.)

Hi Pavel,

I ran into this issue again toady (previously happened to me about a week ago). I loaded up turns-all-year.com/trip-reports (not logged in, Chrome/MacOS) and the attached screenshot is what loaded. 

I then loaded turns-all-year.com/trip-reports in a new incognito window, same result.

In both cases, refreshing the page did not fix it, but oddly enough, clicking the Trip Reports link in the Home > Trip Reports breadcrumb did. In all cases I've encountered this issue, it appears to be the title of a specific TR that appears in the breadcrumb (as opposed to search term).

Perhaps also worth noting, when doing a search (e.g. searched for "slot couloir" in the search box, which took me to the URL turns-all-year.com/trip-reports?tr_year_...earch=tr&task=search), the search appears to have worked as expected, but the breadcrumb shows the title of a recent trip report ("White Salmon"). See second screenshot. The "White Salmon" has persisted for me across multiple browsers and devices (Firefox, Chrome incognito, Safari on MacOS, Firefox on iOS).

Whatever the issue may be, I suspect it is a server-side issue.

Hope this helps!

Just had this happen to me again. Address bar just shows trip-reports, no search terms.



Also, copy-pasting this image (ctrl-v) in the message looked fine, but turned into garbage once I submitted the post. Had to edit and use the "attachment" feature.
