"Safe Browsing Site Status"?‍♀️

This seems to be resolved now. I can search and get to posts on Forums.

Good tip Miss Marple. ?

Yes I get this and cannot get past it to access former threads.

A “sneaky” way to access older threads is to look up the forum they were under “Chat” “AIBU” etc
I think that works.

Glad to have found this thread because I am a fairly new user and was trying to 'search' without success. I just get Google Safe Browsing Status after I have got a list of posts I might want to look at and I can't get any further. This happens on my iPad and also on my hp laptop.

No Apple Apple devices here, but having same issue.

Thank you very much! Ongoing issue here!

I had an email from HQ last week as there is another thread about this. They said it was a problem with Google and nothing they could do so maybe someone has their wires crossed.
It seems to only happen on Apple machines.

Yes it's happening to me too.

I think it may be that Google has picked up the site as potentially unsafe as part of its site safety checking processes?

I access the web via Google and it’s on my iPad when I look at an old Gransnet thread, it may be only affecting people who access via Google if this is the issue.

Thank you!
I haven't heard anything back from them...

MN have replied that they are looking into it.

Yes, I have had this for a few days

No never seen it

Definitely new to me and long may it remain so.

I have reported my previous post to GN - that should alert them to the problem.

Perhaps GN is using an outside site to carry out the search function (they can get links to paste into their website that add a searchbox. This then deals with doing the searching for them instead of them having to get it constructed within the GN site itself) If there is a problem with the website that provides the search, it could show up when you try to follow the link from the search site to whatever you searched it for (if that makes sense?)

Yes, me!

Same here for the past weeks. I've done a general google search and, at the moment, can't find a way of cancelling it. For me too, it's only when using the Search facility. You get the results but click on a link and that pops up.

As you say shysal It says GN is safe but then won't let you go back to use links from the search,

Has anyone emailed HQ?

I’ve had that when looking back at a past thread for some information

Yes, glad it is not just me. I cannot then access the individual search results.

Same here!

How strange! I’m getting it this morning, it definitely wasn’t there last night, and it only seems to be when I use the ‘search’ box.
