I couldn't get on the site last night (UK time), nor could I sign in on the .co.za version

I tried twice, and then quit, but that is the first time I have had problems getting onto the site from Bookmarks

Had no problems getting on a short while ago ................. but could not open My Threads, even using the suggested solution failed.

Changing the 0 to 1 got me into Threads You Have Started, but then I couldn't get into My Threads - All, which is where I wanted to be.



MM .............. well, the technical problems are still here, and multiplying.

hmmmmmm

It took 4 tries to get to the website.... three error messages.

Clicking on the GR logo doesn't work either

:-(

They told me there was, surely they weren't lying?

is there one?

I think that the whole site is running slowly now. One wonders what the so-called technical team is up to now?

I clicked on "my threads" (from the Home page) and got the ERROR MESSAGE!

:-P

Is the site running slow? Thought it might be from our end. :-0

Jeeez...

Now I'm getting errors just making ordinary posts. Hit the back button and the post is duplicated!. Is anything ever going to work properly round here??

Andy

Joan ............

that's possibly because you only have a few posts???

Error
Sorry. An error has occurred
The page you were trying to load has experienced an error. This error has been logged and will be investigated.

If you hit the back button on your browser, it will return you to the page you were on, and you may like to try the action again. If you repeatedly experience the same error, please contact Customer Support.

If you were following a link from your favourites, an email or from another site, the link may have changed. We recommend returning to the home page of the Genes Reunited site, and following the existing menu options to navigate to the same content.

To return to the home page, click on the Genes Reunited logo.

If you right click on My Threads, then Save Link As into the the URL line you can amend it without waiting for an error message.

MM ........

apparently ........ yes!!

I realised after breakfast what they might mean by "the end of the URL" ........ porridge is supposed to be good for the brain cells :-D

So I have just sat through the Error message (what ............. 30 or is it 60 seconds that feels forever?), changed the 0 to 1 at the end of the URL

Got Threads You Have Started

clicked out of that

Clicked on My Threads once again

wheels spun for about 20 seconds, and ................ bingo

I got My Threads




nope, not good enough!

Changing the last digit seems to bring up Threads Started by Me.

It's a bit similar to the trick of selecting Watched Threads and then My Threads.

(Edit) The action of thhe simpler process accesses data from the server which is then cached. This saves the My Threads function from accessing the same data from tthe server again. That's my take on it.

Thanks, Rose, I didn't know what URL that they were talking about. Now I know that it's on the error message. Now are we supposed to go through that rigamarole every time we want to look at our threads?

worked that time

changing the 0 to 1 at the end of the URL when the error message showed

http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/participation?pcp=1

I also got the email

Still cannot open My Threads .....

so how the heck do I change the URL??

Have replied to Karen's email and suggested she look at this thread as it's not just me it's not working for :-(

After reading your post, Ann, I decided to try it again. Nope, I've lost it! That didn't last long!

nope - still can't get my threads

I agree Rose that it is still very slow even to get the error page up - I'm still having to use that route. We have 200 mb broadband so it is not down to a slow connection at this end.
