For goodness sake when are GN going to sort out this long running problem. I've been trying to post without success and had Error 504 messages. Why is the assumption made that somehow its our fault over the cache issue.
That's an answer I want as well BlueBelle

I m on iPad with safari and have had problem blossoming

If your iPad is a recent model and you’re on the latest version of iOS then I’d try clearing your cache. I clear my cache and history on a regular basis as it’s good‘housekeeping’.

Sorry blossoming!
My above post was intended for MissAdventure.

It seems MissAdventure's issues went away after clearing cache, would you mind giving it a go?

@Lilygransnet, yes links in the daily email are working OK

You're not having me on are you? That's brilliant news!
Is anyone else able to try the above steps? I'm on hand and can message privately to talk through it. It's a bit complicated but it does look like it's solving things.

P.S thanks for everyone's patience. It's very much appreciated. flowers

It's ok now, thanks, fanny.
It righted itself and I can see again!

MissA if the text is small, it could be that you are on the laptop version.
You need to scroll down and find the little link to swap to the mobile site.

Yes, the buffering seems to be fixed.
Thank you. smile

I'm back.
Everything looks different, and the text is too small.
I had that happen before, but it changed back at some point.
Hopefully it'll happen again.

I'll go and have a scroll around now and see if the buffering has stopped.

I haven’t had any issues (so far!) using iPad mini with iOS 15.1 and Safari.

Ohhh interesting, thanks so much for letting us know.
I use android and I'm fine but had a few separate cases of IOS users struggling. Just curious - can you click on links in the daily email okay?

MissAdventure

I'll have a go, but don't hold your breath! grin
I could do that, a few phones back, but this new fangled one is a bit beyond me.

Here you go - instructions here.

Keep us updated!

Gotcha!

Androids are Samsung, all the other ones like that.

IOS is apple products.

I was starting to think the issue was isolated to apple products but it doesn't look to be the case.

Are you able to try clearing your cache if I send over instructions?

Because my phone spends ages buffering since the moving ads appeared.
It's an older Samsung (just about fit to be called a smart phone)

I've no idea about IOS or what that even means, but I gather Samsungs are IOS?

All theories are welcome.
What makes you think that, @missadventure

I'm on Chrome, the advert videos are playing fine. Are you on an IOS device? brew
