Site updates and Mobile App Changes Today

Over the next couple of days we are going to be making some changes to the site to improve security and stability and you may see some slow page loads as systems update. App users in particular may have trouble connecting until service providers and app installations update. There are some things you can do if your app is acting up to help improve connections.

Clear your devices cache
Uninstall the app
Cycle your device off and then on
Reload the app

If this is unsuccessful, waiting a few hours and then repeating the process may be all that's needed. In the interim, this site has a simple mobile version that is quite nice - no app needed. All you need to do is navigate to the site on a regular browser and the mobile view should open.

We understand that not being able to log in through usual means causes frustration but we take site security seriously and these are needed updates. Thanks in advance for your patience.

Re: Site updates and Mobile App Changes Today

The site acts strangely: on some pages I am connected, on others I am not (PC running W8.1 and Firefox 43.0.4).

I tried clearing the cache: no effect.

Re: Site updates and Mobile App Changes Today

When I try to access the "New posts" page, I appear not connected and I get the answer "Sorry, there are no new threads to view. You may search for threads updated during the previous 24 hours, here".

Re: Site updates and Mobile App Changes Today

I haven't received any daily mail of forum discussions for two or three days, first time this has happened since I subscribed almost a year ago.
