    Same problem here. I can only log in via the mobile site.

    Same with me from desktop. Can get in via mobile though. Getting ridiculous at this stage

    Can't access it from my mobile- unless I disable all https connections (then it works fine). Also can't access it via work (government networks) as our VPN insists on only allowing https connections- and I'm getting an unknown issuer certificate error for Boards.ie (and a rake of other sites) this morning. Apparently cloudflare are aware of the issue.

    Anyone receiving the 'too many login attempts' error should be able to log back in now :)

    How can I? User's guide to some features on the new site

    Andres tells me this is fixed now - let me know if you're still having an issue.

    This is the first time Ive been able to log in all morning on any device.

    I wasnt able to report it though because this forum doesnt allow guest posting, nor does anywhere in Help.

    What should one do in that situation?

    Emailing hello@boards.ie I think is your only option in that case.

    I am getting intermittent failure to post responses in threads again over the past week or so ....... similar to what I previously reported.

    Or, if you're particularly impatient like me, do all three!*

    :P Sorry!




    *Don't do all three.

    Are these changes anything to do with the site not loading properly for me all day today?

    I'm on the laptop, and the pages won't fully load - if I click to bring me to the latest post it'll go to somewhere nearby and hang until I scroll up or down to it. The little circly thingy is whirling away the whole time, like it's never quite fully loaded (ho ho). And it's INCREDIBLY slow the whole time.

    Having trouble replying to messages says the message was to short even though in the reply I type over 250 letters very annoying having to repeat yourself didn't have a clue what I was talking about the first time!

    I got an email a while ago which contained this..."You have requested to reset your password for your boards.ie account. To do so please Click Here"

    I didnt request this so is part of the ongoing problems? I haven't had any other issues today.

    Look back I reported a similar issue a while ago. iirc there was something strange about the font in use in the reply box when it happened to me.

    So this just started happening with a banner ad. Blocking the My Forums bar.

    Ah, I saw it as a bug more than an inappropriate ad, so didn't check there.

    That thread title should be changed to say "Inappropriate and Annoying ads-post links here" .

    Really.. Help & Feedback should be a lot more prominent and possibly placed by itself.

    If this change helps to reduce the amount of off-topic threads in Feedback as of late, I wholeheartedly support it!
