META: What is going on with the forum landing page?
« on: June 28, 2017, 09:39:00 am »
Is anyone else getting this? Have been for several days.



I have to go to Users Online, click on a topic, then get to General Discussion that way. It is happening on my phone, and two separate computers. Have tried multiple browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari) and get the same thing on all of them.

I'm referencing the fact that up until a few days ago when I went to 930.com and clicked on Forum I came up to a page that listed the three main forums (General Discussion, FAQ, Ticket Exchange). Now all of that is gone, as you can see in my photo.

That said, even if the thing is a garish, technical nightmare, the quality of boardies has improved greatly on v.3.0 so I'm still over the moon.

I am glad to hear that I came back during a new golden age.

looks like the problem is on your end, then, since others  (including myself) are using the expected trio of general discussion/faq/ticket x-change on that page.

perhaps your cache is effing things up for you...

On three different devices and 4 different browsers? I mean, I agree, its on my end since no one else seems to be getting this but I don't see it being a cache issue. If there's one thing Julian's America is built on, it's positive cache flow.

In testing, it displays fine in every browser if I log out.



The second I log in, all the forums go away.



Am I on super-secret double probation?

Clearly, the solution is for you to stay logged out permanently.

For years, I just typed 930 into my URL window and it would auto populate:

http://930.com/forum/index.php?PHPSESSID=f7919d13282612791131eae1ff5d17eb&board=1.0

Once the board was updated, it took Google about a week to begin to autopopulate 930 with the new General Discussion board:

http://forum.930.com/index.php?board=1.0

I see no reason to visit any other sub-forum.
