Back to vB4 General Help

[Tazren Talamar]

Uh. I seem to be having the same kind of session issues here, where I never had them before. Sign in, check the "remember me" box. An hour later when I'm back, I have to sign in again.

One of my sisters says this:

I can get there but when I click on forum I get error and no forum.

So pretty please, help my sister

 

[Ivien Tarkand]

That sister is me

I can't access the forum. To be more precise I can access when someone links specific topic like this one, but when I click to anything that would lead to www.tarvalon.net/forum it says 404 not found error. I tried via my bookmark, via clicking forum on navigation bar on the website, via googling it, via typing it manually and it's still like that. Clearing cookies didn't help either.

Thank you Neria

For those of you experiencing issues similar to with vB5, or with loading the forum, please try the following steps. Azi might have more to add, but I know he's busy with holiday things and will check in when he can.

• Clear cookies and cache. Instructions on how for a variety of browsers can be found here.
• Restart your computer.
• Make sure that the URL you are attempting to reach is using https and not http.

If you already did all of it, and are seeing no change, send an email to support@ and we'll work with you as best we can.

 

[Erin al'Denael]

And Kelgan, you are a total superstar.

 

[Ivien Tarkand]

That solved it! I didn't think computer restart would do anything. Thanks

 

[Jeffan Caliarthan]

Everything is so squishy. Is the size we had in vb5 not possible in vb4?

(totally not trying to harp, just, you know, my eyes. )

I've lost my access to the Hall of the Tower with the switch.

Thanks to everyone who's having to work so hard (again) to make things work

Fixed.

[Aran Cherubim]

Is there a link for the read-only version of the vb5 boards?

Was this ever answered?

 

[Onis O'Leia]

As soon as I can figure the damn thing out!



Can you PM me details, please? How do you know they were meant for her, and how do you know they were not accidentally addressed to you by the sender (rather then the software).

Thanks!

Aran: See the first answer in this post. It was in response to Zashara's question about a read only version of the vB5 forums.

 

[Aran Cherubim]

EDIT: Derp. Gotcha.

 

[Onis O'Leia]

I quoted Azi's post. Is that not showing up for you?

 

[Eli Soljourn]

That solved it! I didn't think computer restart would do anything. Thanks

Restarting fixes 95% of all computer issues.

 

[Aduiavas Ida]

Computer problems:
1. Restart program
2. Restart computer
3. Delete cookies or other temp files.
4. uninstall program and reinstall it

If all this fails, you need a new computer

 

[Avendaella Tikvah]

I can see admin forums again. I should only be able to see the community outreach.


Still not able to get on from my phone.

 

[Erin al'Denael]

Permissions fixed.

And if you cannot access the site from your phone, please try the steps I outlined in a post above. They apply to your phone just as much as your computer, and the link supplied had how to clear things for mobile devices (some, but not all, there are quite a few out there).
