Edge case on "Recommended for You" module

[sh20000sh]

When it doesn't connected to Youtube account, it start displaying after at least two videos in /my_history. Which can be cleared through instance UI. But after cleared, module looks like just broken and browser cache clearing needed to make it function again.

This seems not browser-specific issue and error detail displayed on IE8 was like this:

what's the breakage like? if you're talking about the recommended tab not showing anything because you cleared the viewing history, that's intentional.

[sh20000sh]

I expected that case, but it still doesn't show up after watching enough number of videos after cleared. For IE, its display also broken but looks like side effect in this case.

i can't reproduce this, all i can assume is just some browser-side issue

[sh20000sh]

Did you used this exact one to clear history for reproduce this issue? I said this as edge case as method is really specific.

After clearing history with that, recommend module still broken here. Tried on Chrome and IE8.

that's my testing - getting the recommended section to show, clear viewing history, click new videos, recommended shows - am i doing something wrong?

Checked this actually worked on Chrome when tested before IE.

Its method was like just you showed on video, it didn't appeared like first part of your video. Running it on IE first might broken something here I guess.

Trying to run on IE still broken here.
