are you playing with board settings? being returned to login screen

You should update to FF 51.

Something has changed with the board or the ISP cacheing, I’m have to force refresh every page view to get updates (ctrl f5 in windows)

same issue here, i’m constantly getting outdated pages, have to do ctrl-f5 to see the up to date page

I have the same problem @RogerClark

I noticed that the unanswered posts works properly without kicking me to the login screen.

I too the &sid=xxxxxxx number and added to the end of the unreadposts .. and it seemed to work

Are sid keys getting messed up?

first time in, get the unread posts, chose one, read last post, back to top and its when i click on unread posts again
of course this post may also never appear

i suspect also that PM’s are an issue as mine to roger is still in my outbox

nah, he has always replied certainly whenever it gets out of my outbox that is.

this thread is seeming to appear and disappear, i had to search this forum ‘playing with’ to get to a post i could ‘see’

Things seem to be working for me now, but perhaps the hosting at HostGator had some issues

I have not made any setup changes to the bbs or the hosting in general.

Is everyone still having problems ?

yup

Umm.

Absolutely fine for me on my very old ipad

I will try it in Chrome and Firefox on my W7 machine

Yup, same problem here: go to unread posts, read some, go back to unread posts, no change, F5, the read posts disapear…

I noticed this behavior since yesterday.

Umm

Something strange is happening.

The only thing I did yesterday was to add a new section.

I have a backup from the previous day, but I don’t really want to re-instate that at the moment, because we’ll loose 2 days worth of postings, and I’m not even sure that would fix the problem.

One thing I noticed is that the time that the site displays was incorrect when I first looked at it.

Times are set in my local TZ for UTC +10, and initially it displayed the time as if TZ was UTC (or somewhere else)

I wonder if the hosting company (Hostgator) has changed PHP version, which is causing these problems.

There is a new version of PHPBB that I could upgrade to, but I normally don’t continually update the site unless there is a critical security bug in PHPBB.
And last time I tried to do a cosmetic upgrade (over a year ago), the update failed, so I had to revert back.

I only have hosting with one provider, but I do have multiple domains, so I could restore the DB to a different domain.
However if the issue is PHP version or something else with the hosting, this would not fix the problem

But what I could do is copy the whole forum and DB to another domain, and see if I can upgrade to the latest PHPBB.

If that seems to solve the issue, I’d need to do the same thing on this domain, but I suspect the site would need to go offline for several hours, and I’d need to do it at the weekend not a work day

These things are sent to test us.

I’ll check if HostGator has posted anything about PHP version changes

Hostgator seems swamped with support calls at the moment, I don’t know if this is normal or whether they have a widespread problem

My guess would be that they have some form of inline cacheing proxy that’s on the fritz.

Just contacted them, and they have not made any changes, but I get the impression that the support people don’t think outside of the box.

I’ve gone into the admin and purged all the caches and regenerated all the statistics etc, but it doesnt seem to have helped

Umm. Seems the whole thing is on the fritz

I’m not even sure I can post

There seems to be something strange going on with the time the site thinks it is

If you logout and look at the time at the top, it was reading.

It is currently Wed Feb 01, 2017 10:46 pm

But this is wrong as the site is supposed to be on UTC +10 and that time is UTC +0

I really think the hosting has some stuff up going on at the moment

I guess I could set the time zone to UTC, its worth a try
