Linux

[Harry WilkesParticipant @harrywilkes58467]

I found that since the forum was update I couldn’t reply or start a new topic I was getting error 403 but tonight I thought I would try again using my tablet and found I could both reply and start a new topic, so I am now wondering if my problem is down to the fact I run Linux mint and Firefox on my laptop. Are there other Linux user having any problems?

Dave (SOD) should be along later he is a Linux man though I think he did most of thetesting with Windows.

Hi Harry,

This reply is made on my PC running Xubuntu and Firefox and seem to work OK.

Linux Mint and Firefox – no problems. Also works with Chromium Browser

Linux Mint Cinnamon edition v. 21.2 and Firefox 116.0.3 – no problems. Are you running any extensions to Firefox such as add blocker? Are you allowing all cookies on the site?

Thanks for replies Russell I don’t have adblock and cookies are OK, I did try earlier on my laptop (linux) still getting error 403 one thing I do however find strange on the first day the new forum went live I did post without getting any error but after that no go be interesting to know what’s changed

I use Linux at home (Arch Linux, frequently updated) and Firefox (also frequently updated) and no issues.

Well two surprises in one evening earlier I turned on my window 10 laptop and what a surprise when the forum page loaded up the dreadful Warco banner at the top of the page was gone hooray I thought but soon I was brought back to reality when I tried to post I got error 403 again so I can’t post on a laptop running Linux or another laptop running win 10 but I can post on a android tablet !

My second reality check tonight was when I logged on again tonight the Warco banner was back 😢 from a personal point of view I can’t see this forum being ‘fixed’ this year and I think we will have to accept is the look of the forum is going to be predominantly adverts ! Below is what I see when I login
