Russell C Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 Didn't see any problems before, don't see any now. But additionally, I don't think I ever looked once into my profile page "Activity", so whatever was there - nothing now - I don't miss it. If it helps with any diagnostics, however, I'm using a version of Firefox that is at least two years out of date, due to my iMac's OS being obsolete* enough that it can't load any new browser updates. *(Accepting donations to help me buy a new used iMac, just remember to make the check out to "Cash.") 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the top of the page is tells me that I have a response to my posts. However when I look at my post the response is not there. Some never seem to get added to the post no matter how long after the response has been up. You may be getting reactions (similar to likes on Facebook) and not responses. Look at the bottom right corner of your posts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisBcritter Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 Still no good here on either computer (one about a year old, the other a 2-month-old laptop, both using Chrome). Can only go to next page by opening it in a new tab. Likes don't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-Garageguy Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 Much of the "activity" on my main profile page has magically reappeared, but not all. Interesting. Anyway, the "topics" I've posted are still accessible through the "see my activity" link (far right of screen, within the bar adjacent to the photo), so it's still easy to access older build threads for updates...which was all I was really concerned about. Otherwise no issues...either on Chrome or Firefox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redscampi Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 My search function will not find any results. Not sure if this is related to missing content but the timing is suspicious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bills72sj Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 I have been using Duck Duck Go (filter?) with the latest Firefox Browser. I also have uBlock Origin popup blocker. I have been in this configuration for years. I NEVER get pop up ads EVER. Not here, not YouTube not anywhere. I have a short cut on the browser homescreen that takes me directly to Content/Started as my 1st page. I can see if anyone has replied to my posts, I have both notification and messages counts at the top of the page. As a matter of practice, I use right click, 'open new tab' for any threads I want to view. I then view all the tabs one at a time to read and/or post comments without needing to navigate away from my Content/Started page. It permits me to efficiently navigate the forum in short order. Note: YouTube attempted to throw a 5 second delay for any viewer using an adblocker. Consequently, they were flamed for their efforts and the smart software people exposed what they did and shared workarounds. The brouhaha was so loud they dropped the change in 2-3 days. Keep in mind Google owns YouTube and were trying to force everyone to transition to their monopoly. The Europeans frown on such tactics and would have fined them heavily if left intact. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russell C Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Interesting - my profile page "Activity" that I'd never looked at before has at least partly returned, going back to October 5th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Ambrose Posted November 27, 2023 Author Share Posted November 27, 2023 Update: I think we have it fixed. I'm having no issues using the forum with Chrome. I tested paging, activity streams, posting, and search. The fix triggered some massive index rebuilds, so searching may take a while. We have 2.5 million posts, so I suspect anything touching that resource will take a long(ish) time. Leave a comment here if you experience anything odd, but it really looks like this problem is fixed. Thank you all for your patience. This was a difficult problem to diagnose and solve. Nota Bene: I'm seeing some delays in saving posts. I suspect this is temporary. but I'll keep an eye on it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColonelKrypton Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 So far so good. Everything seems to be working as it should. I have been able to while connected to the website as https://www.modelcarsmag.com - log out, log in (without any indication of an insecure connection), reset my password, give "like" to postings, search, change pages in multiple page postings, etc... as I would expect without any warnings of insecure content. As well, there are nice little thumbnail pictures on search results and when viewing unread content page listing. Well done. cheers, Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your time on this and the other mods time dealing with all of the issues members were having. A couple of notes. Activity list in profile is displaying properly now I like the thumbnail previews in the latest activity expanded On my iphone and on my tablet the site is now showing in https throughout the site and no functional issues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
