Since they seemed to have improved the site today I have had problems in getting selected messages / pages. I keep getting 'page cannot be found' then when I come out of it and go back into it, it's there!

Help, can anyone tell me where the 'new names in the last x days' has gone. I can't find it & having been away for over a week I have some serious catching up to do. Thanks. Pat

Hello Sue, The same thing is happening to me, I feel like giving up and switching off sometimes. Everytime you click on the back button it comes on page not found. They say patience is a virtue, sometimes I beg to differ. Diane.....................

Thanks Diane, it's not just me going insane! It's happening when I click 'add reply' page numbers, back button, even when I click on the topic! The site is slooooooooooooooowwww I know but I feel like I'm near comotoze half the time - well some of that may be due to late nights on the tree! Thanks to everyone else for your replies. Sue

Kaz, Ditto ... call me a stick in the mud, but it was better last time around - or even the first time around! This has just got too many frilly bits around the edges which, I suspect, are making it so sloooow. Regs Jane

Had problems first night. Every time i clicked on ' search census records ', my computer froze. Got fed up in the end and went to bed. ALSO , just got to say - i don't like the ' NEW' set-up.

Can I put my two pennyworth in Don't LIKE IT ALL, as some one said it was at it best when first started. It's getting a bit too much now, and I wish we still had the pics on the tree, and not like they are now. Good luck everybody.

I have the biggest problem of all because since the upgrade on thursday I can no longer access genes on my tv internet downstairs but only on my sons computer when he is at work, trouble is he finishes work at 2.30 so all afternoon and evening I cant get on here and its so frustrating, I used to be on here all the time before. jenny :-((((((((((((

I don't like most of it, but I guess we will get used to the new layout in time. What is good is the drop-down that allows you to set the length of time you are looking at new names over. I go on here most days, and it was no use at all having the new names for the past 7 days! I have not had any problems with speed, but Sunday afternoon will be the acid test, as that seems to be when the site is busiest.
