Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Just wondering if anyone else is having issues with Family Search recently.
    I seem to be getting the following message more and more often.
    We are unable to display page content due to technical difficulties. Please try again in a few minutes.

    last week or so I've been getting the same - seems to be happening more often after an initial search when I narrow down the district or timeframe.

    Yeah - that's where I'm having the same trouble.
    Hope it's resolved soon.

    I have had to resort to the Index Ancestry - which I dont like. The FamilySearch Index has it's problems but I find works better for narrowing down details in most cases. (The exception being where district and county names overlap, and it tries to be 'smart')

    FamilySearch.org: "We are unable to display page content due to technical difficulties. Please try again in a few minutes"
    I get the exactly the same error and have done for over 18 months. I have no plugins, tried the site from 3 different browsers on 3 different operating systems and the only way I can see the results is if I change which Domain Zone I'm in (i.e. change to a US proxy because I am not in the US). I have  proven this conclusively - so clearly something very wicked is going on here.

    Never had that problem.
    Just checked using the following link and all is okay.
