Touch site?

    I'm on a mobile and always used the Touch version of the site for Boards.ie

    However over the past few days anytime I type in touch.boards.ie I get brought to https://www.boards.ie/b/

    I absolutely hate the new layout, I presume its the new skin of the site?

    I can barely read or navigate the site, can't find the forums I want. It's making me not want to use Boards anymore as it's doing my head in. It's hurting my eyes and head looking at it, it's so colourful and gaudy.

    How can I get back to using the touch site again?

    Click on 'lock' symbol at top-left of your screen (preceding https)

    Select 'clear and reset' within site settings.

    Voila.

    Scroll to the bottom and select "full site", then on the full site page select "touch site".

    This always fixes it for me.

    I keep getting the denial of service protection message by cloud flare....

    Either some Russian bots are active or Boards think I am up to no good.

    Hi jcorr,

    Cloudflare security has been ramped up after recent suspicious activity, so these checks will kick in from time to time. Is it just the check that you are getting or is it a 1015 error?

    How can I? User's guide to some features on the new site

    Is the app not working any more? Each time I open it all I get is a blank page.

    Just the check, no 1015 errors as far as I can see.

    Hi Bahanaman. Cloudflare is currently on higher alert after the recent spam issue, so access from the app seems to have been cut off. Normal service will be resumed once Cloudflare dials down a little, but I'm afraid I don't have a timeline as to when this will be. In the meantime, we recommend using touch.boards.ie for mobile access.

    Ok thanks for that.
