Mine went down on Safari iPhone yesterday but stayed stable on Safari iPad until this morning when it struck a server error and went dead white with that default URL.

I can currently access my Board in Firefox browser on devices but I suspect its only a matter of time. 

I hope mine doesn't go down on laptop. Especially on a bloody matchday!

Same issue here right now. Trying to access my site from Firefox on my iPhone redirects to mysite.com/admin/install which yields a blank page. 

similar address for me on my site on Safari on iPhone

Just had a site member say, using external browsers on mobile aren't working. but when he uses the samsung browser things are fine!

See Topic “Site Offline” Topic. My Board experienced intermittent slow downs the last couple days and is now dead on my main Safari Browser on my devices. There is no indication of this issue on the Status Page. 

Same for me on mine, and I'm getting messages from site users to say the same. It's weird, I can access on my macbook via safari and chrome, but on my iphone it's not having it at all, the page stays blank. This is the case as of postiing this post.

Hi all,

Can I ask...How does a user delete images from their image library/attachments? Or can we do it as admin for them? 

Just wondered if there's an issue with the current version of Safari and the sites? 

On my site, from time to time, on Safari on my Macbook the page locks up and then I get a message about the page taking too long to load and I have to reload the page. It happens mainly when I put up any pics. It's not a major issue, just a niggle. Wondered if it's just my end or it's something that has been happening to others?

It's happening across the board.  It's targeting all sorts of sites.  Not just IPB, but anything online where users can submit content.  

Annoying! But in a weird way, glad it's not just us!

I've had 30 "people" register on our site today, it seems the IP and hCaptcha change is catching the majority but I've never seen an influx of spammers like this before at all!

Have you increased the sensitivity in hCaptchas site itself? Also, do you have questions and answers in place? Unfortunately spam has indeed been somewhat of an issue lately

The IP ban on the 'people' who are trying to spam is currently doing a good job. It's banned about 15 others since I posted. But I'll look at hCapta settings too

Thanks Marc, as always. Top stuff.

Just had an influx of them, about 8 from various places, who keep getting past the hCaptcha. 

Is there anything else I can do..? Any helpful tips?

Thanks MMXII. I didn't see the button! 

I'm getting this message in an orange banner at the top of my forum, and I follow the instructions on where to go in AdminCP>Support but there's no button to apply the patch...

What am I missing?

Thanks for the quick responses, I'd have provided a little more detail but I had one of the kids bouncing around at the time I was about to post and got distracted

I'm having a nightmare / brain fade! I've just changed on my mobile to desktop view of my site. And I can't change it back. Must be the sun here in the UK getting to me.

Can someone remind me how I change it back?

This is my personal view of the site, not everyone's.

Thank you!

I'm having issues with a few people when trying to register on our site, or use the password reset. The below image is what people are seeing..... Could anyone advise how to fix?

Thanks

Cool, ok Jim, I'll ask the question. 

Cheers

It's on safari on iPhone.. Fine on my phone, but not displaying properly.. Like the above on two others with exactly the same IOS and using Safari

I'm having a few of our site members getting in touch with me, saying they can't see embedded tweets on their phones. However... I can!

I've tried our dynamic dark mode, and the default mode and this is what some are seeing

The thread / post is: https://www.owlsonline.com/topic/718-202223-wednesday-transfer-thread/page/32/#comment-28251

But I can see it fine..... One of the members having issues has cleared his cache on his phone too to check. We're both using iphones

Can anyone help/advise?

Hi @Owlsonline Admin,

It happens to the best of us, believe me! Let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Thanks Gary, there'll be something no doubt as I try to navigate this new dark theme and see where things are and how they work!

Thanks everyone, I didn't see a Dark theme as default but knowing my eyes recently, I may as well have been staring at it and I wouldn't have seen it!

I'm looking on the marketplace at themes, and I don't want to make drastic changes to my forum. So I just wondered, is there a 'dark' version of the standard default theme?

SCRATCH THAT! Found it!

On laptop/desktop there's the option to strikethrough text on the forum, is there a way of adding the button to the text box on mobile? Or is there another way of using it? On previous sites I've just used <s> </s> either side of the text as a workaround
