Just back from a trip and trying to log in to the forum via my normal bookmark...now brings up the mag home page...if I click on the forum link it brings up the forum but is out of date and won't refresh. Is anyone else having the same problem? Cheers,Andrew

Hi Andrew, Yes, I'm having a lot of trouble getting on today, and when I managed to get on (via a google search for an old post) it seems as if everything since October 16 is missing. Weird. Hope you had a good trip Martin

Now I can't seem to login properly, which means no more posting *sigh* Ah well, it was fun while it lasted

Me too. Even my "magic" link which has got me and others out of trouble gives a 404 error now. Via the mag site, as you have found Martin, I can get the Forum, but every time I log in, it does so, but then logs me out right away. I've emailed Jethro and Guy. It can't do any harm if everyone else does too - Jethro@blazepublishing.co.uk guy@blazepublishing.co.uk I'm also v pissed off that the AcousticLife cvolumn is absent from the newly issued mag. Keith

Sounds like AcousticDeath then doesn't it. Apparently the "hip cats" are on Facebook Keith - Martins link worked for me and I managed to log in from there and so far have remained logged in but only time will tell !!

At present in negotiations with someone called Rupert Cross, who is trying to sort it out - though he seems unable to believe it isn't working as it shows me logged in (when I'm not), and someone managed to register this morning, and all seems to work in HQ. Harumph! Keith rupert@5874.co.uk

Well I emailed Guy and Jethro this afternoon just to add weight/annoyance to the issue, so hopefully they'll get it sorted quickly.
It's amazing how many problems the forum has had over the years.
Hope you get some joy, Keith.

I just received an email reply from Guy explaining that the problems were down to moving the host address to Blaze Publishing, and that it should be fully functional now.
It does appear via the Mag website link, but I still can't log in.
I'll leave it a while longer and if the issue persists, I'll get back in tuch with Guy.

Good, I'm glad he replied - he still insists, as does Rupert, that it all works fine for them so it must be OK! I've repeated the problem to them in detail, and mentioned the missing posts, and have been assured that Rupert (no Jethro any mnore it seems) is still working on it though it's not easy!
I also mentioned the missing posts/threads since this morning's "incident" but they seem to have ignored that.
Also mentione dit would have been helpful to have had some advance warning of changes but that seems to have met with deaf ears.

I can now reach the forum using the link on the mag page but although it appears that I've logged in [my username shows at the bottom of the page] if I try to post I'm asked to log in! I also don't appear to be able to log out my UN at the page bottom.. SNAFU it would seem!

I saw your name at the bottom Andrew, and as others have been there too with no new posts I reckon you many others have had my experience exactly. HQ seems to find it hard to believe as all seems well to them and they see our names at the bottom. I've tried to spell it out to them in words of one syllable, but if you, and anyone else having the same problem would email Rupert too, it would add weight to my protestations ! Thanks
