Havve you checked to see that your timer setting is correct. Now that we have in British Summer Time (try telling that to the weather this next couple of weeks!) the time should be set to GMT +1.

To set your personal time setting, once you are logged in, go to https://www.hoo.do/personal/manage/settings. You can set the time zone at that screen.

Testing

It`s fixed! I set it yesterday but I set it to GMT-1 by mistake. Thanks El Loro

Test post to see if my clock has updated

Edit..............YAY!

Hey, Bazille:

Just wanted to let you know that I asked about the rating, and it's pretty simple:  You can vote for the topic more than once, after each time someone posts. I'm sure you've noticed you can't vote on your own content.

It seems like there were some unpopular posts made that took the rating back down to 4 stars, but I'm sure you can get it back up to 5 in no time.

Thanks Lori..... I did wonder if it had been those posts...... Never mind... we will pull in someone to give us our final quarter

I am having trouble on here tonight cogs turning and being kicked out saying safari cant open this page..

Edit not working again but to be fair it only worked for one night for me

I was locked out for about 30 minutes at about 21.20.... just for info

Yes, we're having a little server trouble over here.  Hang tight, we're working on it!

Easter Bunnies been chewing the server wires Lori??
 
 

 Hi Scotty

 Happy Easter Muf.... Thanks  for the info Lori

Wow, you're quite the troubleshooter!  Good work!

Lol
Happy holidays to everyone

So was I Baz....naughty little easter bunnies!

well I never!

I spent a few hours last night trying to get here but couldn't because of a problem that happens every now and again. When I click on the link to come here the green bars at bottom of page start to load very slowly, but when it gets to 100% it just hangs there and does nothing, even if I leave it for 15 minutes and more. Just before trying last night I'd cleared my temp files and cookies, I can't remember if it's every time I've done that is what causes the problem but don't understand why that should cause it.

Hi, Yellow Rose:

Are you using Firefox?  I'm having the same issue, and one of our developers fixed it for me the other day.  It's come up again, so I've asked him how he fixed it.   Once I find out, I'll let you know the steps.  In the meantime, I'm using another browser, since I can't seem to use Firefox for the moment.

Strange! I'm using FF and haven't encountered total hanging, just slowness in taking that final step at times.

Hi Lori, no I'm using IE 7. When this problem happens it's not usually resolved until the next day - last night's experience at least proved that as today it's fine. Maybe when it happens I need to shut down the pc? still curious though that it happened after clearing out files and cookies, before doing that I was able to get here.

Just to let you know my problems are the cogs when editing (I just refresh after 30 seconds and hey presto it's there!) and the big page with no smilies happens a lot - then I know it won't post so refresh and it's ok. Also the disappearing cursor!
It doesn't freeze my whole system though - I just refresh.
I do love it here tho and I use Vista and FF.

I have exactly the same problem as you....but with Windows XL

Yellow Rose, I've just been to visit a developer about this issue, because I had it again over the weekend.  Very interesting, and very enlightening:
1.  The problem arises at home, and never at work.
2.  I can fix the issue at work (once I've brought it to work) by clearing my cache, but that doesn't work at home.

So, Brian deduced that I have malware that came in via my router at home, and asked me about security.  I know my wireless is secure and requires a password, but I don't know about the router itself.  So, he recommended that I:
1.  Upgrade to the latest firmware for my router and
2.  Use OpenDNS (opendns.com).  I don't know if this is available to you over there, but I don't know why it shouldn't be.  Apparently the steps are very easy to follow.

You can read about the problem here, along with some other possible solutions: http://www.google.com/support/...9abe&hl=en 

If you read my thread on Firefox 3.6 you will see that besides Mozilla having to release v 3.6.2 to remove security risks, they have had to release v.3.6.3 today to remove a new security risk since identified. Although this should be automatically downloaded, it is important to ensure that this is done.

I do not know if this is what has been causing YellowRose's never-ending cogwheels problem - time will tell.

For those of an extremely technical mind, further details of the specific security risk can be found at Mozilla's page
(This will be complete gibberish to anyone other than experts in this field)

I downloaded Firefox v 3.6.2, El Loro. How do I check if v 3.6.3 has automatically downloaded? Please can you explain in terms suited to a computing idiot novice? Thank you.

It's okay panic over, I've managed to download the v 3.6.3 version.

Good. On my computer the latest version of Firefox is downloaded automatically. You can control automatic updates by going to Tools - Options - Advanced and select the Updates tab. There you can control how Firefox updates are downloaded. The chances are that it is already set for automatic downloading.

Thank you El Loro, I shall go off to "Tools" and check it out now.

You are correct El Loro, it is set to automatically download. Many thanks.

As an update on the spinning cogs problem which appears when I edit an existing post, I have noticed that if I edit the post which creates a new thread, this works correctly. It seems to only happen when I edit any post other than the first.

The site keeps freezing on me and I can't send error message.

If I get the cogs when I try to submit an edited post, I hit the refresh button and that seems to sort it out.

Ditto

What do you mean "freezing"?  Is there anything on your screen when that happens?  Are you getting an error message?

Hi Lori Thanks for the link which I checked and most of the posters mention Firefox or Macs, I'm using IE7 with Windows XP. I have quite a lot of security so hadn't thought along the lines of malware as when I had such a problem quite some time ago it played havoc with just about everything my pc, whereas, the occasional problem I have here of the green bars just hanging so can't access the Forum only happens when I try to come here. Puzzling lol. Also a fix of the Edit function would be extremely appreciated

I know.  The Edit issue has been reported, and they are working on it.

If you read that link, the particular malware referenced is related to Google Analytics, and you would have trouble on sites that use Google Analytics (which we do).  I don't think it's specific to a particular browser.

I'm sure we all appreciate those who are working on different issues some of us are experiencing whatever browser we use, many thanks to you all and the diehards among us are staying here whatever the problems from time to time 

I second that YR

The menu down the left side of the page is still over written.

Only on my laptop when I use Chrome...on the Computer with FF it's OK(lol)
