You do realise that red wine, cheese and garlic are flatulence ammunition. If he can't break the new forum, he might have a good go at melting it.

What web browser are you running rich? you might need to clear your cookies out.
The only thing i have found so far which is definitely not working is search. that is on today's list of things to sort.

I thought IT-types prefer Hob-Nobs (with or without chocolate). Not sure about Rich though; perhaps a builder in France is stuck with Marie biscuits?

Speaking a an IT type, my favourite are caramel digestives.
Although after the day I've had, I've had to break out the gingernuts and start dunking them.

Despite ticking the box to keep me logged in, most of the time I have to log in each time I visit.

Rich, when I indexed the database so the search function would work, it created such a large workload on the server, they blocked any more changes / updates for a period.
After some time on the phone I have arranged more capacity and the issue is now resolved.
I still have to finish fixing search though
Harvey, clearing the cookies on your computer should fix it as the problem is you will have one from the old forum which won't work. They time expire so the issue should self heal as soon as the one on your machine expires regardless.
