    Problem is that you have lost the touch.boards.ie from your DNS:

    nslookup
    > server ns10.dnsmadeeasy.com
    Default Server:  ns10.dnsmadeeasy.com
    Address:  208.94.148.4
    
    > touch.boards.ie
    Server:  ns10.dnsmadeeasy.com
    Address:  208.94.148.4
    
    Name:    touch.boards.ie
    
    > www.boards.ie
    Server:  ns10.dnsmadeeasy.com
    Address:  208.94.148.4

    Another one who can't access here!

    I don't use the touch site but it won't even let me access the full site on my iPhone and defaults back to touch. m.boards is working intermittently.

    Flushing the DNS can be done by going into Airplane Mode and back again.
    That didnt work for me. Either did rebooting the phone. Happens in 3G and Wifi.
    Vodafone and UPC.


    What did work on iPhone was to Reset network settings by tapping :
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.

    Yep touch.boards.ie now resolving. For the record:

    tjewell@viapc:~$ nslookup
    > server ns10.dnsmadeeasy.com
    Default server: ns10.dnsmadeeasy.com
    Address: 208.94.148.4#53
    > touch.boards.ie
    Server:         ns10.dnsmadeeasy.com
    Address:        208.94.148.4#53

    Working again for me, too.

    Fair play to the staff for sorting it quickly :)

    Hi,

    Don't know if its just me but the touch site keeps reverting to the desktop site on my phone.

    m.boards.ie seems to be okay though.

    On your phone, if you are on the desktop site, you can click on the "Touch site" link in the footer to set a preference for loading the touch site. The link can be found between the "Contact Us" and "Log out" links.

    This sets a cookie that makes your preference persist. If your cookies are cleared, it will forget that preference. Out of curiosity, what phone do you have?

    I have a Galaxy S4. That's really strange, I did clear my cookies yesterday when the touch site was down but after it came back up I was using the touch site as normal (ie I had a period of normal use after clearing my cookies).

    Fixed now anyway, thanks a lot!

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor.
