Official Luthiers Forum!

Lance,

For the last week or two links to posts cease to function properly.

When I click a link, read the post, and then go back to the page that contained the link, all links fail to function. After I reload (F5) the links are repaired.

I didn't notice that this defect commenced with any particular change in the forum...but this is the only internet site that produces this issue for me.

Just recently I had problems similar to that with Internet Explorer. I switched to Goggle Chrome and all is OK.

Thanks Stuart, I have noticed the same thing. Its like the links are dead. I refresh and they
work again.
Ill have it looked in to.

I keep getting an error page. Can't remember, but it's like Sys, or Syg, followed by a number. It basically says there's too much traffic and I'm not allowed. Too much traffic? Would that we had that problem here.
The other day it lasted for at least 45 minutes. It just took me 10 or 15 to get through this time.

And tai fu has lances picture sometimes. Other times he has no picture and once he even had mike baker's profile pic. Lol. Not that it affects anything. Just noticed it happening lately

I'm using Chrome and have had the same problem as Stuart for more than a week or 2.
Thought it might be a bug/virus, but several scans find zilch.

Catgut is an abbreviation of the word cattle gut. Gut strings are made from sheep or goat intestines, in the past even from horse, mule or donkey intestines.

Otherwise it could be from the word kitgut or kitstring. Kit meant fiddle, not kitten.

Lately, some pictures and Youtube videos have been missing from posts, while viewing from my iPad.

i think this thread needs a bump because it is still happening.....it's not a virus, it's a scripting error.

No problems here.

I am running Linux and did have the problem when people complained originally but I updated my Browser and Java and the problem was gone. I just assumed it was an update on the forum and I wasn't up to speed with my updates.

No problems on iPhone iPad or any liters I've used. All Mac though. T

Of course the iPhone spell check stinks. That's puters, not liters.

Still getting the problem- only of OLF, been a good couple of weeks now.

Funny enough I am only seeing this on Chrome. IE for once works for me.

I'm using Chrome. When I click on a thread, then go back using the back arrow, or swiping on my mouse, the threads no longer appear to be links I can click on. If I refresh, they all work again.

I get the same thing running either Chrome or Firefox on Mac or PC. The strangest part is that when the links stop working (and the "Like" and "Share" buttons shift down on top of the "Board Index" menu bar, I can scroll down the page and older links WILL still work--only the links on the top part of the page are dead. Refreshing the screen fixes it for one click only!

Dave

I thought it was my computer or something as its happening to me again using Chrome

And for me, it seems to always be the sixteenth message down that where the links start working again, at least in Chrome. Pretty consistent glitch.

Dave

Dave, same here with Chrome.
Consistent, same as you - I hadn't noticed that the lower links worked until you mentioned it.
Strange, it definitely wasn't like that before, something must have changed, Chrome or the site itself.

Happens to me as well. Open a thread, go back and links are dead. Refresh and the are live again. That's with chrome on my laptop. Running chrome on my phone with no glitches though.
