Posting Problems

[Gnomey]

Had that one a couple of times Andy. Put it down to a combination of my connection and the server. F5 clears it every time though so it doesn't bother me to much.

That may be more in your PC than the server. I had something similar and found out it was in my machine. I could be wrong but it is very similar.

Could be but why all of a sudden with so many people and random?

Could be something to do with the forum page not showing, which it didn't do now and am able to post.

GG, I get around that by quoting, posting and then editing the posted post.

Often times, I can't even get quoted text to appear.

So I'll refresh the page until the text area in the "Post Reply" appears, then it's no trouble to either reply or do a quoted reply.

As memo serves you use the Firefox don't you?

 

[Milosh]

Yes and Win10.

ATM no problems with the forum page and making this post.

 

[Wurger]

OK. But please inform me about the glitches. Also , may I ask you for taking a screenshot of settings for clearing history of the Firefox? Just hit the Ctrl+Shift+Del keys ( or go to the History menu at the top Firefox bar ) and select Clear Browsing History. Grab the screen of the small window that will be opened with details for cleaning and hit the Cancel button there. We are interested in the current settings there and not going to clear anything. Therefore the Cancel button to use. Then post the screenshot here.

Sorry for late reply, was away for the weekend.

Well no problem making this post.

Am a real klutz when it comes to 'puters. The first 5 boxes are checked and clear history is set for 1 hour.

 

[Wurger]

OK. THX. Grasped. If it works fine , there is no need to change anything. Just let me know if any glitches can appear again. Then we can talk about changings. I would say I might have found the problem for the Firefox.

Not sure if anything's been done but pages have been fully loading for me for the past week, though I've not tried to create a new thread.

 

[fubar57]

Had to refresh twice last night when posting two threads, once each time. First time in a while though

 

[Graeme]

Trying to log-in tonight and got this...
Unusual? The log-in box moves to the left and does a "semi-stealth" act...

 

[fubar57]

Just had this happen minutes after clearing cache/history etc.. No where the type....

.....clicking refresh allowed me to continue

 

[Crimea_River]

Got that a couple of times recently but must say my issues have reduced quite a bit from a few months ago.

 

[GrauGeist]

Yeah, I've been getting odd script errors, too.

Magical floating text areas, the invisible tool bar and a few other random oddities.

 

[Gnomey]

Yep certainly happens every now and again...

 

[Airframes]

OK, how the heck do I post a new thread these days ?!!
Tried to create a thread for the Duxford airshow, but, after typing in the title, there was nowhere to type the actual thread content !
Some stupid box for tags, but nothing at all for the main content of the thread.

 

[Wurger]

Try to hit the F5 key for refreshing of the screen.

 

[Airframes]

Thanks my friend, I'll give it a try.

 

[fubar57]

Any one else missing the "Upload" button...

...it still works. I've cleared my cache etc., re-started my comp, and F5d it to death

 

[GrauGeist]

It's been missing for me on a few occasions, but I click "More Options" and it'll show up between "Post Reply" and "Preview" and I'll continue from there...
