I've almost given up on this forum and it's "Technical Issues" and all the sleazy posts that are appearing daily.The green EXIT sign above the door is becoming rather attractive.

 

[Dan]

I am working on this. My working days are down to three days per week at the moment. So I have external firms working on it with me. But we think it might be a compatibility issue with the newer PHP versions we're running, and the old VBSEO that is now obsolete (MyDomain hasn't been online for nearly a year).

So what I'm doing is testing a new SEO software on TilersForums.co.uk, which works well, and I'm ironing out some issues with the way we work the forum and their stock setup.

I didn't want to 'test' it on this forum as it is huge, and rolling it back even a day means we lose hundreds of posts and dozens of threads.

So stick with me lads. I get this error (seems only a small number do, my host can't even replicate it on various machines and internet connections) myself and I know how annoying it is. Especially when you've written a massive post and it goes in the bin.

I always thought I P was a sort of beer anyway.

Your thinking of

[trev]

I also get it, I've kind of accepted it as a fact of life even though it's bloody annoying and has caused me to leave the forum a while back. I had read that it was fixed, obviously not.

 

[Dan]

We've thought it was fixed a fair few times to be honest Trev. We can get rid of it temporarily but then when it comes back, different people (often more people) have the issue. So we've avoided doing that again and would rather work with those who have the issue to try an eliminate things.

Which I'm struggling with. Seems to be conflict in software causing cache issues.

 

[trev]

conflict in software causing cache issues.

...............Oh Vienna!
Incidentally, often the reply box is missing. Sometimes refreshing the page brings it up, sometimes it doesn't

 

[Richard Burns]

16:24 GMT and 16:30 GMT on Google Chrome: opening new tabs to view posts, multiple pages came up with "oops"

 

[Dan]

Could do with you refreshing your cache and rebooting routers and trying again for me, see how it performs.

 

[Richard Burns]

Have not reset yet but at 21.20 another oops when opening two new tabs.

Thanks for the report Geordie, I've moved it to this thread to keep them all in the same place. The more of these we can get hopefully the better chance of cross-referencing the server logs and finding the issue.
