    When you say you cant access new posts, what do you mean.

    Do you click on a new post on the front page and you are presented with a message saying you cannot access this post? Can you provide some more info.


    Thanks

    I think he means the "new posts" link that's not available to most users temporarily while we restrict the search function, but I'm not sure.

    Try http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/subbed.php?onlynew=yes

    The earliest post would be from yesterday since you were logged in yesterday.

    What link are you clicking? What error message are you receiving?

    the link at the top of the page i go into site map and then to subscribe and then i get the message that i do not have permission to access this page

    hiscan, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

    Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
    If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

    I don't see any link marked "site map". What is the URL?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,105 ✭✭✭hiscan


    the drop down menu from boards.ie then you go into site map and accross to subscribe


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 10,501 Mod ✭✭✭✭ecksor


    Ok, I think you want to go to your user cp and access "paid subscriptions" from there. The link is this -> http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/payments.php


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,105 ✭✭✭hiscan


    well i have just subscribed but still cant access new posts????/

    Re-reading this thread, it appears that we still haven't figured out what exactly you were looking for?

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,105 ✭✭✭hiscan


    when i click on new posts at the top of the page all i get is a page loading search results and then posts from 2hrs ago come up and no current posts
    search=site:www.boards.ie&scope=0&order=0
    im not very computer literate but i think this is what u asked me for


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 10,501 Mod ✭✭✭✭ecksor


    It isn't exactly, but that makes it a bit clearer. Ok, so you're not having permissions problems, you're just not happy with the output of the script.

    The subscription you paid doesn't change your ability to access the link you clicked on, I'm not sure why you thought it did.

    However, it does give you access to the old "new posts" link, which you can access at http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/search.php?do=getnew


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,105 ✭✭✭hiscan


    yes thats the page i was looking for but when i go into that link and then click on new posts im back to square 1 do i have to go through this link everytime i want to see new posts?
    i thought by subscribing it meant this page would come back after i seen the gooner had a similar problem which you sorted out for her
    anyway i think a subscription is the least i could do for the service i get on boards


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 10,501 Mod ✭✭✭✭ecksor


    For the time being that link would be the way to access the old "new posts" function. We will return normal search service in a while but we don't have a specific timeframe for that.

    ok thanks ecksor you have been very helpful and patient

    It's been disabled indefinitely while the speed issues are being sorted out.
