    Default Problems viewing posts

    Good Morning
    I am having troubles viewing new posting with out opening main headers. If I click on a new posting IE 11.0.2 tells me unable to connect. If I go into the main header then click on new posts it works fine. I am using Win 7. This action was working fine yesterday.(30 Jan 14) Can you tell me if it is me having a computer tough day or is it the Forum?

    It's the forums, not just you Nobby. I'm having similar trouble, especially when clicking on email notification links to view subscribed threads.

    Default There's your major problem,

    its a two letter one...

    IE

    get a proper browser and you'll never look back...
    I have Chrome, Firefox, and Safari on all my devices, and somehow Chrome gets the guernsey every time...I guess its that I can Google straight from the address bar...
    Have not ever opened IE on my laptop, but I understand it's needed for some part of the Win7 operations...

    The current issue for me is not browser related as far as I can see. From the Activity Stream I can't view any post with any browser. It just returns a blank page with no errors.

    Hi,
    I was getting the blank page when clicking on a post, then I discovered it was only happening if I clicked on the button to view first unread. but if I clicked on the post I got it but if I clicked "go to first unread" on the tool bar I got the blank page again. I can scroll through the page and go from page to page. When I get the blank page refreshing does not help. I am using the latest FF.
    Now lets see if I can submit

    XP, IE 8 or Latest version of FF.

    IE (normally used and slow but reliable), if I select a Forum then a Thread from the listing, it works as expected. If I select a thread direct from the last thread column, I get a No connection error and it locks IE, so I cant use back buttons etc.

    FF (not normally used for WWF so no cookies set etc) Looks good pre login, login, it downloads front page in multicolumn mode, go to change to single column mode, locks up when it tries to download woodworkforums.com/style 43 or whatever changes style. Also tried in multicolumn mode, and it locks when I select thread from the lastpost column.

    Doubt it is browser/machine related if it does similar things in different browsers on the same machine within a minute.

    Read the top of the page. We are aware of the problem and Steve and Neil are working on it.

    Default Can't post pictures.

    I still can't get pictures to upload. The uploader goes through the motions and the spinner icon turns but it stops and the picture is not present on the palette for pasting. Is it something I am doing?
