    All of a sudden I am getting 404 errors when using the touch site on my phone to view my threads.
    I tend to use Chrome but I've also tried using Opera and same 404 errors.


    Edit: this was posted using the touch site so those particular pages are obviously ok

    I'm having this problem too, I can't access any of my subscribed threads. I'm on IE. I cleared cookies and that worked last week but not today.

    Mine seems to have resolved itself.




    I got a 404 when posting the above message so I tried posting on the responsive site. That didn't work (looked like it was posting but no post there) so I am now posting on the full site!

    It posted fine. All seven times. The touch site attempted to forward you to your post, which appears as 404 since it's not approved yet.

    So there is an issue in terms of 404s: is that what youre saying?
    Anyhow, a message stating that the post was successful would be good and surely is in place so I'm still unsure why a 404 should occur. Has the forum software not been built for post approvals?
    Also, I'm still getting 404s as it turns out. I got one trying to open this thread just now (both from the my threads list andnfrom the Help Desk forum list) and had to resort to the responsive site. This was when opening the thread and not when responding.

    Anyhow I'll post this and presumably will get another 404 so won't know if it has worked :/

    Any updates on this issue? I'm still getting 404s on my followed threads on the touch site. (Can't access any of my followed threads, I have to go into the forum and find the thread). It'd be nice to get a reply at least.

    The main workaround we know of at the moment is to use incognito mode. Not ideal, but it's something at least for the time being.

    I tried this and it doesn't work, I'm still getting 404s.

    I tried this and it doesn't work, I'm still getting 404s.

    If you're still getting this, could you try turning off Chrome's Data Saver. You can do this by opening settings, selecting Wi-Fi under Wireless and Networks, Touch and hold the network marked as Connected, tap Advanced Options, and then under Proxy select None.

    Hopefully that helps.
