Welcome to the new Boards.ie platform - Version 1.0 :)

Yes again now

Something has gone wrong.

We've run into a problem and are unable to handle this request right now.

Please check back in a little while.

Down again for a few mins

What's going on now, horrible new bright blue colour for buttons and banner and content overflowing the screen on mobile devices?

Who messed up this time

Lads what the hell has happened?

On mobile site

Facebook clone colors and thread titles aren’t bold if unread anymore

And name of last poster has disappeared.

I don't pay for boards so I have little to complain about but you certainly are not enticing me to want to pay at any time in the future. Cloudfare and horrible blue on display on iOS chrome. A lot of posts have disappeared so this appears to be a cache of the site on display.

I still like that blue colour.

Colour too bright on Chrome/ Android. No 🌟 icon for followed threads either.

Edit: It's there when you click your avatar.

Another unnecessary click. Will the auto hide feature of these buttons be an option going forward?

Just when start getting used to how boards looks it's changed again 😕

The monthly "Vanilla apply updates and breaks the site" strikes again.

Firefox on Desktop seems to be back to normal now.

There was so much wrong I'd imagine there must have been a rollback to sort it?

Seems to be daily and weekly for some, I would be happy with monthly

Another timeout, it's falling apart at the seams now.

I don't understand the move to Vanilla at all. VBulletin was apparently scrapped because it was so modified it couldn't be maintained, the site moved to Vanilla in what was supposed to be an overnight process (🤣🤣), then Vanilla was modified to look like old Boards.

At least VBulletin could be tinkered with by Boards staff, now issues have to be raised with Vanilla, and when they fix or update something it throws one or more of the modifications requested by Boards off kilter. 🤯🤯🤯

I've had 2 bad gateway messages in the last 5 mins

It always seems to be okay for me when I am catching up on all these posts! I use the desktop version.

I spoke too soon! I went back to edit punctuation and got this, although it seems okay again now.

BAD GATEWAY

The web server reported a bad gateway error.

• Ray ID: 811c3828ec95956a
• Error reference number: 502
• Cloudflare Location: Dublin

What happened?

The initial connection between Cloudflare's network and Vanilla timed out. As a result, the web page can not be displayed.

What can I do to resolve this?

Please try again in a few minutes. If the problem persists, you can contact the site owner to let them know you were unable to reach the website.

@Boards.ie: Mike

Following on from this, they [vanilla] seemed to have messed about trying to fix this double post issue and broken lots of other parts of that forum

I posted a reply to 'Moss on roof' in diy

I got a note bottom L of screen - 'your comment will appear when it is approved' ...Wha?

Comment didn't appear

Posted comment again 5 mins later and got same note but comment made it onto the thread - comment is there but on the home page it didn't register and thread only has the op's 1st comment

Just checked there and the 1st comment must have been approved by the approvers and also made it into the thread

I think they put petrol in the diesel tank Mike

Just got a bad gateway a few minutes ago. I don’t feel left out anymore

Saw that twice the other day when posting in CA - thought it might have been a CA thing, obviously not!

Just opened 6 new tabs on desktop for threads that I had notifications of replies to and 3 failed with bad gateway errors. Refreshing those pages with errors brought me to the correct page. (~14:00hrs).
