I've noticed this as well, have not isolated it yet but believe it's to do with the new software package itself. You will eliminate that error by clearing your cookies and starting again - for some reason it seems to be half-reading the old cookie rather than overwriting it.

Beware Firefox as well... I've noticed that if you leave a Firefox window open long enough, the cookie associated with that window becomes corrupt. Then you have to close & restart the application.

Tried a test message after logging on this morning through "Post Quick Reply" - no joy.

I followed the instruction to refresh the page - it made me log on again, but still would not post.

Trying now through "Advanced" again.

Paul.

Hi Paul ... did you try the quick reply icon located on the post or
did you try the one on the quick reply BOX below the posts???

I ask because it took me forever to figure out why I couldn't make
the quick reply message box to work for me ... didn't know I had
to click on the icon on the post in order to "activate" the reply box ...
is this what you've been doing too?

Karmen,

I use the quick reply icon on the post, it took me a couple of attempts to realise that was the way to go.

This reply is through the "Advenced" mode. I tried to post another message after my last one through the "Post Quick Reply" and it gave me the error message.

The message was:-

One thing I have just noticed.

When this hassle started last night, the "time now" was not correct. It is also showing that I last visited, at the top of the page, at 18.57 last night. I was definitely on the Forum after that time.


When I refreshed the page, I checked the "Time Now" and it is showing GMT -6. Is that possibly the time zone of the servers?

Paul.

Okay, so you're talking about a different problem than I had.

I don't know anything about those workings through advanced yet, so can't help you. Sorry I don't know the answers about the time zones/servers either ... so ....

Maybe Geoff will be able to answer/help you when he reads this, unless someone else knows the answers and chimes in here???

I hope it gets figured out and set right, soon

Cool No problems

Well, conversely it has always worked here through the front door using my "favourites" link of http://www.mapleleafup.org/forums/
and as best I can recall we have never had failed access in at least the last two years (CRAFT problem) except those I have flagged to Geoff by regular email and then it would seem the whole site was down for an explicable reason; I doubt these occurrences make much more than the fingers of one hand though.

Something hapenned and it's working again , in the new forum format .

The Gods are playing with us

Just posted a reply on another thread using "Post Quick Reply" and it loaded.

Seeing what happens with this one using the same medium.

Paul.

Seems to be sorted, and previous message loaded quickly.
