    Good morning,

    It looks as though Cloudflare has had some issues of its own this morning (https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/), but has implemented a fix and says that it has resolved the issue.

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

    It's been very frustrating for me the last few days. Maybe it's my location as I was having cloudfare captchas for ages from Asia and the whole site stopped working for a while as well.

    Sorry to hear that Ads by Google, in what way did the site stop working? You couldn't log on or couldn't post or couldn't even get on to it at all?

    It's completely random. On mobile, I saw this thread had a new post so I clicked and it took at least half a minute. Posting can be very fast or very slow. It depends.

    Is there a fix for when a thread you are subbed to doesnt go to the last unread post but instead reverts to the very last post of the thread everytime. Ive tried unsubbing and then resubbing but the problem still occurs. Its only a single thread it happens on but can be frustrating nonetheless.

    Whats with the random comment tags up the top of the page?
    Looks like someone was trying to leave comments inside the <body> tag.

    It shows:

    /* */ /* */

    It's not visible on firefox running on Ubuntu, could be environment related.

    They're showing at the bottom of the page for me:

    544094.png

    There are some inside the page <head> and some more among the scripts at the end of the <body>. There's also one anomalous '/* /*' in the mix.

    Thanks josip, something is definitely amiss at the moment we're getting some blank pages when navigating to a new page as well so Dave is looking into it at the moment.

    When I'm on the main home page and click on the arrow to go to the next unread post, I'm getting sent to random earlier pages in the thread. Not every time, but enough to notice.



    And within a thread, when I click to go to the next page of posts, it just sends me back to an earlier post on the page I was already on. Again not every time.


    I noticed these glitches today.


    On desktop via Firefox.

    Things should be back to normal now, if you continue to notice these glitches just let me know it's still happening here. Thanks.

    Just getting a bunch of previous pages when going to the next page, looks like the servers are out of sync again.

    Hi, when viewing this site on mobile it only displays text, no images or pictures, it does this on both Chrome and Firefox, deleted cache and cookies and that hasn't fixed the issue, any suggestions thanks.

    Hi Supertortoise, are you on m.boards.ie by any chance? If so, please switch to using touch.boards.ie for mobile browsing.
    Thanks!
