Can you be more specific? Does not work, as in "page not found"?

Is it the subsim.com at IP 50.28.98.109 ?

Enter subsim.com here https://www.site24x7.com/find-ip-add...-web-site.html

Ok! When I make a post it does not come up as before, so on the first page ... it is the changes that apply? ... I have to go to GT to find the post ...

Onkel Neal · 10-25-20, 09:36 PM

No, just remember, when you make a post, it's not new to you. As long as others see it in New Posts it's ok.

Please post any other bugs or issues, let's move on.

Despite knowing that I was logged in, I followed up on a link to the download section, BUT.. when the page finished loading up, the site swore that I was NOT logged in.

No clear idea, if this is affecting all links that point to the download section or not.. just know I had this happen in just 1 instance

This occurred in the posting for Fall of the Rising Sun: Ultimate English forum posting.

Here is the post & the link in it, that this occurred:

Yeah, just as the vid shows.

Know that I signed in, got confirm that I was logged in, went to the forum post, clicked on the link to the item in the downloads section, when that page finally loaded up... it said in order to do anything (view the download, much less to download) said I had to sign in... even though I had done so.

Like I mentioned... no idea if that is occurring with any other links that direct you to the downloads section or not... I noticed that it occurred with that 1, in particular...

You did ask to point out any issues that occur & that is what I did...

Letting it be known of, so that it can be looked at to correct so that it doesn't occur.

Neal! It is clear that when a NEW post is posted by a member, it is NEW to him or her. Since the thread's here is a serial that many are. this is
completely different thing. This means concretely that it is not possible to follow the posting in real time as before, because you "have to" go back all the time, for example in the general topic or where the post was, the option does not help with reloading the page either.

What browser are you using? Mobile device or PC? Apple or Windows?

I use Mozilla's FireFox with DuckDuckGo as a search engine. I temporarily tried subsim.com using Windows 10 Edge and it does comes up, so for some reason your new location does not like FireFox which works with every other site I use it for including your old site. That's a shame though. I won't be switching because FireFox add-ons allow me to block the constant bombardment of ads and associated malware on YouTube and elsewhere.

I have no problems with firefox and subsim. works perfect with all the add on enabled.

Interesting... So I switched the search engine to google instead of duckduckgo and the problem persists.

edit> I even temporarily disabled my addon Adblocks and it still persists.

Not a real issue since I hardly ever visit the home page of subsim.com. I was mainly using it as my entry into the forums to reduce shortcuts.
