I wonder if this will work?
I can get onto the forum, but can't get into the individual threads - a strange message come up in blue.
Any ideas?

Should have said native American headdress, or even a feathered collar. Sorry. Apaches all.

Still happening on iPhone, too.

The wind must be blowing the smoke signals in the wrong direction! On second thoughts, there's no wind here, so the smoke must be getting fsucked up by the thermals!

Ah that what I was looking for. This has kept me out for a couple of days.
I have discovered quite by accident that the HTTP status error only appears on my 'puter if you hit the thread title button.
I can get the last hour to open but if you hit the thread title it crashes.
I can get in by ignoring the thread title and going directly to the name of the previous poster.

Doing that on my laptop and it just worked. This has been bugging me for two days.
GNHQ will blame the heat. I would ask them for a heatwave emoticon but it would probably crash the system again. wink

I only get status 404 if I click on a thread under the heading 'Last Day'. I can get into most threads through 'Active' or 'I'm on'

Now Tuesday, and the same problem is there.
But like MOnica I use active topics. Still not as good as Last Day and Last Hour.

I can get into "Last day" by Googling Gransnet+ title. Eg: Gransnet thread access problem, I can't get in the usual way and it's so annoying. I have tried with a number of titles and it works.

OK today on my iPhone. Using both iMac and iPad still can't access via thread title in Last Hour section but can via the name of the most recent poster. Can't get in at all via Last Day. No problem using Active. Any progress on sorting it, please?

This is nearly a week now. Most of us seem to have found how to avoid the crashing but it is a nuisance.
It has still worked on my Android Tablet.

It seems to me that the problem is specifically related to the "thread title" line on the screen.

Come on GNHQ get this sorted. Drag the technies out of bed and set them to work.
