Problems with the forums

[ Edited ]

I just had to log in.....twice....to actually get in.

 

Example- the dumping cable thread.  It says there are 28 posts in it, but it's not showing me anything later than 5:30 this afternoon.  No matter what I do, when I open that thread, it won't show me all the posts.

 

And, you know how when you look at a thread and then go back to it like an hour later or so and open it again and it brings you to the posts since you last read.  Like it marks that you've read the thread and where you left off?    Not me.  While the thread might show on the cover page 5 new responses, when I open the thread, it takes me back to the very beginning of the thread.

 

And also, on notifications, even after I have acknowledged them, it leaves them highlighted like they're new, until I log in again.  


Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

I year ya!  I've been having the same problem for days.  I'm also having issues with my notifications.  I'm sure it's just a glitch that will get fixed eventually.

Ok, me again.  I had to logout and log back in again and then I can see all responses on the dumping cable thread. Am I going to have to do that every time to see the newest responses?

I have not yet had a problem signing in but I too am having a problem seeing some of the responses to the threads.

@gidgetgh WOW! There has been sitewide IT issues for greater than a week now; cause currently unknown to us.👍 Many posters are reporting your problem and worse! I have been experiencing occasional notification issues, a few pages not loading correctly, and not being able to access order status on .com sporadically via my app. Hopefully, these frustrating issues will soon be a distant memory!🤞🤞 They are likely working diligently to get things fully functional again.😊

 

THANKFULLY, the boards are still here for us to enjoy!😁

Re: Problems with the forums

Yeah....

 

I can see all replies to a thread if I use the browser (Safari) on my phone. But when I access the acutal website on my laptop on the same browser, it seems like there's a lag adding new posts for viewing. 

 

After I scan a certain forum, I'll mark it as "read". 20 minutes later that's completely undone.

 

Nofitications show up hours later, and then they hang of as "new" even after I've looked at them. 

 

All signs of a company that doesn't really want to invest in maintaining/fixing a platform that a very small percentage of their customers use.

I can see all the responses, but I can't go to the last post I read.  It's very annoying.  I have no idea when it will be fixed.

I've been a member here a long time and I don't remember ever seeing this forum so messed up like it is now. Makes me want to just quit.
