I implemented the chatbox on all pages and had some issues with the traffic control tool:

does this work on the cloud based forum?

Yes, I used it on the cloud. 

Thank you for your prompt response.

Do you have anything else which may be accessing the site using your own IP?

Nothing I know of. I do use Chatbox+ 2.8.3. But that should use the server IP, shouldn't it?

Other users posted in the community during the time I couldn't (the issue has resolved now).

Also, are you seeing any repeating errors in your system logs?

There is only one entry for today (around the time the errors occurred), before that, the last was some days ago:

Happens again today. In between, I can post something. Then I am blocked again. 

Same here, and it is often the first page a (new) visitor sees. If I was greeted with such a page somewhere else, I would leave immediately. And I haven't seen something similar on any other website. There is no hint that the user is on the website he intended to visit, just the warning/captcha as first impression. 

Currently, it seems that the issue is resolved. I was able to post.

I'll give an update if I am blocked again.

Hi,

I can't post forum posts or start new threads. This is the error I get:

For issues with community hive, you would need to post up a topic within the community hive forums here 🙂

@BandiRoot did:

https://talk.communityhive.com/topic/57-i-can-not-enable-community-hive-from-my-admin-panel-invision-community/

But no response so far.

No more issues right now. Thanks. 

Thank you. My domain hosting provider recommends using DNSSEC to secure the domain name. 

Could you please look into this? Thanks.

Do you support DNSSEC for your nameservers and if so, could you please provide me with the keys for my domain hosting?

Thanks,
Markus

I don't have this behavior on any other website.

Today I visited my community first time after the night (computer booted and new browser session), typing in the URL (autocomplete) – and got a version of the page that shows me, that the last entry was 14 hours ago. If I were an average user, I would think “okay, nothing new” and go away. 

Aren't cache headers (https://www.keycdn.com/blog/http-cache-headers) used to prevent this? At least for logged-in users? 

If I go to, e.g., LinkedIn, I always get an updated view. Also on news sites, even if I am not logged in.

Thank you for your responses.

I do have links to new (/discover/) and unread content in my main navigation and at the top of my home page.

Still, many user (and also myself) are used to going to a news site or blog and seeing, at first glance, what's new.

Mobile browsers

It also happens to me, on my desktop computer with Wi-Fi connection and no data saving options activated.

Shouldn't the system trigger the browser to load a new version of the page if there are any updates?

I don't have this issues on other news sites or blogs I visit regularly. 

It sometimes even happens if I start on the homepage, then go to another page of my site and then turn back to the homepage. Only if I then click F5, I get a refreshed version of the homepage.

At the top of my homepage/forumhome I have a block with new forum entries.

If I (or other users) come back after some time, it still shows the old list. Only if we hit F5 it will update. 

It happens on mobile and Desktop, browser is chrome.

We are seeing the same thing.

There is a patch that addresses the issue.

A new forum thread was marked as  possible spam by spam analysis - if I try to approve it, I get a notification, that I have No authorization to do this.

I just installed the patch and the Hive Buttons are gone. Thanks.

This should hopefully resolve the remaining issue here.

It did for me. Thanks.

I did that. The notification is still there. If I click on “Run now”, I get this error:

And the lock is back where it was.

Same here (cloud). And “Run now” throws another error (2C124/2). The protocol is empty.

the trigger for causing this is when you click on "Enable" to only see the settings

Yes, I think I did this. But how can I reverse it? I don't want to change any templates.
