I have a login registered on friday and sunday, but none on saturday..
However, I know 100% sure that I logged in saturday as well..

Are you 100% sure you were actually logged in when you accessed the site? I know I get automatically logged off after ~1 week (or when I reboot my computer). When I come to the site, I don't notice until I try to access something specific (like say, my list of guides or my reputation counter).

Yes, I *was* logged in, because my name was displayed top right on the screen...

honestly, the only way to really tell that you are logged in is to check the reputation log and make sure you got credit for the attempt. even if you visit the website and your user name shows up in the corner, you could actually be seeing a version that is cached locally by your web browser. unfortunately, that's something the browser does to speed up load times and there's nothing the wowhead staff can do about it.

If a cache can cause this, then Wowhead can also solve it, by forcing a refresh, when you load the front page.. It's not really that difficult to force a bypass of cache..

I every day will load my Reputation Page just to ensure I have a fresh page that logs my access. If it's successful I will see a recent Daily Visit.
I've also missed a day from not doing this and thus far have been doing well with this practice. I suggest you do the same. I lost my count twice now but it's not a big deal really. It's just some achievement on some website really.

You, sir, clearly have not understood "achievements" :P

I was trying to bring it down to a very simplistic point of view, lol. Borderline sarcasm even.
I love my achievements. It's just what I told myself the last two times my count reset, haha.

Also, have I ever mentioned how bloody CONFUSING it is to have a Nathanyal and a Nathanyel?

Only because I let him.
I also changed my signature to reflect the difference. Now is only I could find that meme that was made about it, forgot who made it.

Fairly sure your concern has been discussed and comments have been made. If you're waiting for a staff member to post then by all means I understand; however, what has been mentioned above is almost verbatim what they've stated in the past to others when a day has been missed in the count.
I'd suggest sending a message to feedback though if you want someone to specifically take a look at your history and you truly feel a mistake was made on the server side and not your own.

I looked when the thread was made and there's simply no log of FuxieDK using the site on the missing day.
As sas148 says, there's not a lot more I can tell you beyond the (very good) advice others have given here. Changing the way the site handles caching and refreshing isn't something one would want to do because of a feature like this. When a site gets as many visits as this one, imagine how big a cumulative difference it would make to force everyone to refresh every page view just because of a site achievement only a few people are interested in.
My advice is to make your profile page your bookmark and always click refresh on that so that you see your "last visit" show "1 minute ago". I'm up to 470 now and haven't ever done anything beyond regular browsing to keep the counter going... but that's because I haven't had a holiday (away from home and computer) for a long time.

I just want to add a word about Caching here. From my testing, and my experience, there is NOT a caching problem, or caching that effects this achievement.
If you leave your webpage open for a full day, and you see your name at the top the next day, that does not mean you have visited the site for that day. The page was loaded yesterday, you need to click another link. If between those 24 hours when you saw your name and are now clicking any other link on the site, you have been logged off, the log in at the top WILL change. If after clicking that link you don't see your name at the top of the page, you have been logged out and need to log in again. If you do see your name then you have made your visit.
I'm sorry you lost your count FuxieDK, but I can 100% assure you that there is no problem on our end.
Cheers,
Hat

There's not a cache error at this time for this achievement. The best thing you can do if you want to make sure you get this achievement is browse multiple pages every day; post a forum reply a day; etc. Just loading one page may not have you logged in and it's very easy to assume you're logged in without looking.
I personally prefer to log in every day and logout every day, just so I don't worry about cookies or my browser making it look like I'm logged in :(
We did have a bug with this achievement months ago, but we refunded the days of the people affected and it was easy for us to check.

My progress toward the achievement just reset today, and I think it's a bug. Looking at my reputation history, I can see from my daily visit credits that I didn't miss a day.(##RESPBREAK##)12##DELIM##Sas148##DELIM##Please direct concerns regarding this

as this one is old. Thank you.
