I think that's been the case since at least Friday.

Sorry to read that. If you open an incognito window in Chrome and are able to navigate around NSC a bit without hitting any issues, then it is a problem with your browser in regular non-incognito mode. The following steps if followed exactly as listed WILL resolve it, and with the changes made...

I've had that (or similar full-screen scroller) twice in two weeks. I'm not a fan but the frequency is low enough that I've no immediate plans to change it. You may or may not have noticed that last night I shrunk the between-post ads so they are slimmer and take up far less screen real...

Sorry I’m out for the night so slightly limited in being able to provide direct help right now. If you are using Chrome on a desktop or laptop then follow these steps… On your computer, open Chrome . At the top right, click Settings . In the left hand menu, click Privacy and security In the...

Well, that's good news. Yesterday I asked NSC's hosting company to up a server parameter (in Apache for the technically interested) that *may* have fixed things from the server side, which they did. When you posted last night, I thought I may as well try restarting all of NSC's web services...

What happens if you try an incognito/private browser window and go to NSC? Does it load? Can you login and navigate about?

You start typing northstandchat in the search box until just northstandchat.com is displayed below. How many letters you need to type depends on what other sites you visit, but you probably won't need to go much beyond nort. No need to hit return, the search results are displayed, and reduced as...

Easy fix. Please scroll back a page or two for Chrome instructions.

It will be cookies, and clearing them for NSC will resolve it - a working incognito view proves that. Have a quick poke back through the last few pages - it's likely I've posted details for how to clear NSC site-specific cookies for your browser. Post back here if you can't find them.

No, it's fine. We all have differing tolerances with ads, ranging from "Ads are evil and I will do my best to block them and f*** the sites who need them to survive" through to "I understand the need for ads on free-to-use sites and will tolerate them as long as they don't ruin my experience."...

Nothing to apologise for at all - I appreciate how incredibly frustrating it is. I just need to give some thought to try and make this stuff more easily findable!

I've answered this very question about 20 times on this thread already, which highlights I need to come up with a better way of communicating this stuff. Anyway, assuming you're talking Chrome on a desktop/laptop... On your computer, open Chrome At the top right, click Settings In the left...

That was probably just a very extreme way of deleting cookies!

I'm not saying there weren't changes, as there were, but I wanted to make sure I was answering the right question! I was unpicking a few legacy behind-the-scenes things that had become a bit of a mess and may well have tripped the site over in the future. I wanted to do it in a semi-controlled...

What changes?

There are no more ads than there has been for months/years. However as I posted above on mobile the mid-page ad units are larger than they used to be, taking up more vertical screen space so it may feel as if there are more. Again, as I posted above, I am going to get this remedied and have...

What is the specific error message?

That’s because, as per step 1, that’s the process for a computer/desktop. If you scroll down, this site details how to delete site specific cookies only on Android/Chrome... https://www.androidpolice.com/how-to-delete-android-cookies/
