Brfcs Website being a bugger for me

[Armchair supporter supremo]

Not sure if it's just me but for the past week or so I've been having constant trouble simply tyying to access the forums on my phone (via chrome both over wifi and on gifgaffs mobile network) usually takes half a dozen attempts and a bit of faffin about

 

In the past this usually only happens when the site is extremely busy (ie when a big news story or transfer has broke)

To add (may not be related):

I similarly am unable to load the message board page (https://www.brfcs.com/forums/forum/4-blackburn-rovers-fans-messageboard/) but CAN load every other page on the site.

Irritatingly having to Google ‘brfcd transfer’ etc to get to pages.

I think that is a “site is really bloody busy” message TBH…though @StubbsUK can confirm or deny…

[StubbsUK]

Sorry, I’m in sunny Hunmanby at the moment so I wasn’t monitoring the forum but yeah, that’s a sign the site is really busy.

it needs some work to boost the capacity and on our list of stuff to do.

[Armchair supporter supremo]

Sorry I'm still having constant problems trying to access the site and forums. Been like this for around a month now, not sure whos end the problem is at but I'm not having any problems with any other sites and it only seems to be an issue on my phone

[Mike E]

Still having issues myself accessing the ‘Football Meesageboard’ part of the site, just presents me with a blank screen and has done since late August. I can’t see or read that section let alone moderate it 😅

@Mike E is it the same across different browsers on same device ?

I’m afraid so, tried on Safari too

To clarify, I can go directly to a thread I have already accessed from my browser history, but it got annoying after a week.

I’ll try to predict @StubbsUK first suggestions…🤦‍♂️

1. Clear cache on browsers

2. Delete browser & re-install app 

3. Try logging out & accessing the ad served version

4. Let us know if anything changes…🤷‍♂️

I’ll try my wife’s laptop when I get a chance.

Literally only the Football Messageboard page. Bizarre.

Issue appears to have vanished now, I can access with no issues!

[StubbsUK]

Weird.
