Problem with this forum?

[Susan1]

I've gotten this screen pop up twice yesterday and just this morning -


Error 525 Ray ID: 3956bc9c4ada54d4 • 2017-08-28 10:55:10 UTC
SSL handshake failed

 

[Reuven]

Somebody forgot their Purell®? Sorry, couldn’t resist….I’ll go quietly.

 

[Vagabond]

There's a FSU handshake. I'm sorry, @Susan1, but I'm not allowed to explain how to do it.

I've had some problems with creating links using the link button. Does not happen with every link, just some. I redo it, and its then okay. It might be a problem at my end as I have been having computer issues, but I thought I would mention it just in case others were having the same problem.

Which way did you try, clicking on to the chain-link symbol above? Or doing it manually by typing http://yaddayaddayadda, etc?

Interesting. Just got the “handshake” message. The everything went back to working regular. There was this line though, if it’s any help:

I’ll take a look and see why hands aren’t being shaken here.

germaphobes?
Seriously, thanks for checking.

 

[Reuven]

Interesting, tried using a clip quote (highlight text then click “quote”) and when I went to insert in the dialogue box I got an “Error 502” with “Web server is returning an unknown error” Then, everything went back to normal. I can attach a screen grab if you want.

I got the red SSL handshake pop up today. It seems to be associated with the auto-save process when I'm typing a post.

I'm getting this frequently when trying to access pages on this site. Usually after a refresh it's fine.

Me too. But it seems to be ok now.

For at least a few days, if I click on the "arrow" on a quoted passage, it does not lead me back to the "quotee's" post, which it has always done in the past.

I've rolled out a fix for this but you may need to clear your cache for it to take effect.

Thanks, I will try that.

 

[BittyBug]

Not a problem per se but I didn't want to start a new thread for this. There seems to be a new feature that offers "Similar Threads" at the bottom of the screen. Is this a configurable feature that can be turned on or off by individual users?

 

[Lizziebeth]

I got this 'Similar threads" at the bottom of the screen too and have the same question.

 

[Reuven]

[BittyBug]

It appears to be gone.

 

[victorskid]

I see it below here right now

 

[once_upon]

I still have the similar threads thing at the bottom of my screen

 

[SHARPIE]

Is it a massive pain? I think it's quite useful personally.

The only issue for me is having to scroll down further to return to the forum I was in, e.g. SS. I generally just skim over the "similar threads" offerings which, strangely, don't show up on every page.

Because there's no similar threads?

With today's round of changes and improvements, this should be sorted for good... I hope.

I don’t know if it belongs here, but I have a question: how is it possible that I see a thread, but cannot see the posts?

 

[hanca]

Maybe because no one posted anything in the thread?

I know some very old threads got moved or merged and no posts can be seen as a result. Do you have a link?

Also, if you have someone on ignore and they start a thread, supposedly you can't see the thread at all.

What’s the thread?

That is true.
