    There was an issue with this yesterday but it was a temporary issue with a web node. Are you still experiencing it today?

    Oh no, is it exactly the same as before, able to access the home page but getting an error when you click on a thread?

    I'll report back after 3pm when I'm using mobile data.

    No error message when loading a thread- blank page- it doesn't finish loading.
    This is on Firefox, Android OS on Vodafone.
    Working fine on desktop.

    I'm on Vodafone and solely use touch. Can access most of my followed threads but on a number of them I'm getting a 404.

    It was the same error Niamh, with the same "blocked" message.

    Seems to be fine again though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,359 ✭✭✭✭HeidiHeidi


    Yes, I'm pleased to report that I'm typing this on my laptop while tethered to VF :)

    All (back?) in working order.


  • Registered Users Posts: 45,594 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    I'm getting a message from Cloudflare, whenever I go to preview or post, asking me to tick a box to confirm I'm not a bot in order to access Boards. When I tick said box I get a white page and can't access anything.

    Is this just me? The post I wish to make contains a lot of numbers in it (I'm running a league over on the wrestling forum) so is that maybe why I'm being asked this?

    Update: I was able to post it eventually. This was the post if anyone's wondering.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 32,285 Mod ✭✭✭✭The_Conductor


    Cloudflare block when I try to attach a PDF to a post.
    Same block with a word document.
    Trying to update the AO 2016 thread in Work and Jobs and getting blocks.
    This is on a desktop- *not* related to the Vodafone issues.

    Yep, some take ages to come some come. immediately. Still persisting for me.

    Thanks for the reply :)

    I reloaded my User CP a minute ago and got this:

    I logged back in and it's okay, obviously, but whew! :pac:

    A few things:

    1. Since yesterday evening, the drop down menus both in 'Quick Reply' and the advanced 'Reply to thread', the thread tools and the 'Search this thread' menus in the Legacy site seem to have changed. Are these going to be permanent changes?

    2. The advance search doesn't seem to be working properly, this evening. The 'Posted by user' option, for instance, doesn't work (it's not searching for names).

    3. For a while, now, I've noticed that certain links within IMG tags become invisible (I just see a blank text box) - another user told me it's because I'm using firefox, but the funny thing is that if I copy and paste the url in the address box then the image appears without any problems - has this something to do with the embedding 'system', as opposed to the browser, and will it be fixed?

    4. For the past few months I've noticed that if I reply to a PM or a post that contains smilies and I quote it, or if I insert a smilie in a post or PM using the icons on the left of the text box (as opposed to 'typing' it), then the message gets blocked by the Cloudflare/'I'm not a robot' screen, and sometimes that returns a blank screen instead of posting my message/PM even if I click in the relevant box as requested (I don't know if I've explained it clearly enough, sorry). This is very annoying.

    Thanks.

    Apologies for the delay - the attachment function also stopped working for me, so I had to juggle between phone and laptop to post this. I attach a screen shot of what I see on the laptop. Thanks.

    Hi everyone, looking into this one now. Obviously it might come as a shock to you to be informed that you've been banned, but you should have nothing to worry about (unless you've actually been banned...in which case it's time to visit Prison).

    Temporary solution is to log in to your account once again.

    Those threads should work in incognito mode (I'm going out on a limb here to assume you're on Chrome), but looking for a more permanent fix.

    Will make a note of this in case others run into issues too. Can you let us know if it happens again?

    Will get onto the tech guys about attachments (for you too, The Conductor). I appreciate the juggling, New Home, but by any chance do you have a larger image? (Sorry :) )

    Finally, going to bug the guys again about delayed e-mails about notifications.

    I've a feeling they're going to love me today!

    Whoops, sorry Mark, I didn't realise the image was soooo tiny, it looked ok on the phone... I'll try again.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 76,859 Mod ✭✭✭✭New Home


    Hopefully this will work.

    EDIT: It seems legible now. Just to clarify, that's a screenshot of two different screens, the top half is the 'quick reply', the bottom half is the 'advanced' version. The parts with 'thread tools', 'rate this thread' and 'search this thread' used to be at the top of the page.

    Also, just to clarify, I cannot attach anything from the laptop (Firefox 47.0.1) and the search doesn't allow me to search by username (I can type it, but the system doesn't look for it).

    Thanks.

    That is much clearer. What skin are you using?

    Have added the advanced search issue to a buglist. Haven't heard anything further yet, but will keep you posted.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 76,859 Mod ✭✭✭✭New Home


    Thanks Mark. I'm using the basic white and blue skin.

    New posts not showing in threads for me, or else threads showing that they have new posts when I've already read them. This is just happening the last few mins on legacy site using Chrome. Anyone else?
