    Bit of a strange one. I'm on chrome (did try to reinstall) windows 10 and when I go onto a page the scoll bar at the side I there but once I try to scroll down it disappears. I have tried to highlight / select text but still will not go down. This does not happen on any other websites.
    The site is fine on phone and iPad.

    Does your machine have a touch screen? Chrome and Boards seem to exhibit funny behaviour on touch screens.

    I'm having this problem too. I can't scroll with the arrow keys. And it's not just in Chrome. It's doing the same thing in Firefox.

    Hi folks, can I ask are you using the legacy site or the responsive?

    Hi Dav,
    It's the responsive site I'm using anyway.

    Yeah, same problem here. Chrome, Windows 10, new version of the site (is that the responsive site?), no touch screen.

    When I try scrolling using the up and down arrows nothing happens. If I click on the page again then the scroll bar on the right side of the screen appears again but then if I click up or down it disappears and the screen does not scroll. I've not had this issue with any other website. Been like this for a week or so.

    EDIT: Just noticed the problem wasn't happening in the 'Talk To...' threads. Only seemed to be happening in threads starting with boards.ie/b/thread/... Forums starting with boards.ie/b/forum/... seem ok.

    Thanks for the help folks, Jason tells me he's got a fix in for this that should take care of this issue, it's just going through an internal code review first before being set live, so it should be live tomorrow I think, I'll be back to confirm when it is.

    It seems to be back working fine now! For me, at least.
