1veedo Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 For about a week I've been waiting for these forums to get fixed, but maybe nobody else has this problem? It worked before I went to camp (3 weeks ago I think) with the same browser, same OS, same everything. Anyway, this is waht happens. Threads sometiems load completely, but the rest of the site (indexes) only load so far. They stop at the immages on the left. If I wait long enough, I see text, Go to first new post You have 1 post(s) in this thread, last 06-17-2005 Poll But there aren't any actual images. It just says "Transferring data from pagead2.googlesyndication.com..." Even right now, in post new thread, the smilies at the right aren't loading. Nor the "icons." Just to illistrate how bad this is, I had to look in the source to find "New Thread" in order to actual post this...The post new thread button never appears. It does this in Firefox, Epiphany, and Mozilla. I'm using FC4. Here's a screenshot: http://1veedo.homelinux.com/misc/scienceforums.png If I wait long enough, it stops loading, but the images still don't appear. Edit: I noticed that sometimes it says "Transfering data from ads.digitalpoint.com..." instead of google. ( Ironically, the edit post button doesn't show up either.)

Cap'n Refsmmat Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 I have a feeling it's on your end. Everything loads fine for me. I had a similar problem on another site where none of the images loaded (it showed the alternate text) and then I discovered that it had somehow gotten onto my "Block images from this site" thing in Firefox.

Dave Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Can't say I've had any other reports - I'm certainly not getting it this end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 I've had a few problems before with SFN, when some of the images would get mixed up or vanish entirely, and it cleared up with the cache. by the way, dave, the #sfn statistics link in your sig gives a 404 error.

1veedo Posted July 12, 2005 Author Share Posted July 12, 2005 It wasn't blocked, but I specifically "accepted" images and it worked. I swear it was like that for every browser! Anyway, it's fixed. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1veedo Posted July 28, 2005 Author Share Posted July 28, 2005 It stoped working again. This is very wierd. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I have firefox specified and everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primarygun Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Here's an another problem. Why can't I edit my post? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 There's a limit so that after a certain number of hours, you can't edit it. It's to prevent people from going back and blanking all of their posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1veedo Posted August 15, 2005 Author Share Posted August 15, 2005 I have a problem editing posts too... But there's a solution for that. Hover over the #X and in the URL look for ?p=xxxxxx Then go to editpost.php?do=editpost&p=x I wish the images would just load, though. Avatars do, but nothing else!
