Forum Update Complete - Report Bugs Here.

[Chaos]

Use this thread for reporting bugs. I'll be in the chat room for a little bit just in case something major comes up.

It just barely happened, but now when I hit the "back" button I get this:

Webpage has expired

Most likely cause:

• The local copy of this webpage is out of date, and the website requires that you download it again.
  

What you can try:

Click on the Refresh button on the toolbar to reload the page. After refreshing, you might need to navigate to the specific webpage again, or re-enter information.

Why does it check my browser before accessing the Forum so often now? What is it checking?

Your IP, I assume. It's probably keeping track of it and seeing that one IP isn't pinging the server too much. And maybe through cookies as well? I dunno.

Not a bug per se but it bugs me. The new indication of when a post was made , ie. yesterday at 11:52 am. Is this adjusted to the time zone of the reader? If not, then is this a test of mental accuity? Seems like a burdensome change.

if you click on the link that says DDoS protection by CloudFlare (you have to be quick!), it will give you some ideas. I am guessing that there are some people who haven't liked some of the things being discussed here (themselves!), and have retaliated by recruiting the Internet underworld to launch DDoS attacks on the site, which is what caused it to go offline a couple of times. CloudFlare is one way of protection against such attacks, but it has the downside you have observed.

To see if your name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life?

What page did this happen on? Did you delete your cookies and cache?

You can adjust the time zone in your user cp settings.

It should only be doing it every 45 min but if you close your browser for awhile it will do it when you return.

It takes much longer to get on as well.

When I use my Firefox browser the "Check Browser" page flips me over to an "Oops! This page is broken. DNS Error-Server cannot be found" page after several seconds. Is mormondialogue set up to no longer allow Firefox users?

Thanks, -Wade Englund-

[KevinG]

My Firefox and Chrome work.

Perhaps it just doesn't like you Wade?

(I do get the oops message from time to time but both browsers have been accepted at one point or another).

Good to know, this is exactly how it is working for me. (I use Safari if that is helpful) Edited May 15, 2012 by calmoriah

How can I get warning points removed? Does everyone see my huge pile of warning points? Can I simply turn off the warning point notification?

[Calm]

I see no warning points whatever those are, Log.

[wenglund]

You are probably right.

I wonder, though, if my Firefox is set to time-out too soon, but I can't figure out where to check or change it.

You can't and only you can see them.

Just tried to do a link with a title and the title part never came up, it just pasted in the link instead like below.

Nemesis

On the general discussions page. I didn't clear my cache/cookies, but today that message hasn't appeared.

I have the same problem. What is it?

[why me]

Nemesis

It was doing more often than 45 minutes. Will this be going away soon?

[Nemesis]

I turned off the system for now.

Nemesis

[Storm Rider]

I appreciate it; it was doing it far more often then 45 minutes for me also. I wonder if being in a foreign land had something to do with it?

[Nemesis]

Had to turn it back on.
