You know someone asked for the process that we were using so I did
I’m not stupid I’ve also helped run a website
I know you are probably frustrated with all the feedback and bugs
I hope the screen shots help I only needed to know what was needed
If the help isn’t wanted let me know that too

Pho - we know there is a problem - Tim has worked on it for hours today. The truth is that as of right now, unless Tim has figured out the problem while iwas away, we don't know what is causing it. I know that people are upset and stressed (I am upset and stressed too) but I promise we are working on it and will continue to work on it until it is fixed. Thank you for the screenshots.

This is very unfriendly for Macs. Probably won't be around much anymore.

Safari always worked before. Please understand I am VERY tech challenged. Sounds like I will have to go to Apple store to get this fixed as a result. Have no intentions of going anywhere near one until after the first of the year.

I don't know what problems you've been experiencing, but if you're using Safari, that might the reason for some or all of them. You can use Chrome and Firefox on Macs just fine. Both are simple to download and install. If you're currently running Safari, you should try one of those. I'd recommend Chrome, but Firefox would work fine too.

As all have noticed by now the long awaited updates have been started and in fact are in large part done so far as the forum is concerned. We will be working in the background the next few days reinstalling a few smaller options but the overall update has been done. The mobile app will be installed over the weekend and hopefully ready for use by the beginning of next week.

We do have some tutorials we will be putting up to help people adjust to the changes in the site- they will be up this weekend.

There will be a donation link put back up in the next few days. We really do appreciate any donations we get - these sort of upgrades are crazy expensive- in total over $1000 spent on the upgrades and developer to do what we have done and will be finishing in the next few days. If you would like to donate in the next few days until we get the donation add on working you can use this link-

Donate to SF

Thanks to all members and we hope the updates make SF easier for you to use.

@PhoenixLady and @Paisley

Thank you for taking the time to post the screen shots - it was appreciated and sorry it took me so long to get back to respond. It was asked for not in disbelief but so I could see what people seeing- It is very hard to try to figure out if everybody is having the same issue without seeing, and also it does help some people find ways to self troubleshoot on occasion- not that it was belief that you didnt know what talking about. I do appreciate the extra effort to post the screen shots.

Hopefully Tims fixes last night have cleared up 99% of the issues- he spent so many hours rewriting code for the the chat program that was supposedly compatible with xenforo2 that it is crazy - but seems to have it taken care of now so that so long as is refreshed or cleared 1x so is the right cookies being used all is good. If that is not the case let us know please, and thanks again for helping us get the info to troubleshoot with.

@sinking_ship I have no idea what a private window is.
