My View New posts not working

[Obsession 571]

Same as last time. Posting on the tech thread seemed to sort it

And I think Im missing a few mail alerts to thread replies. Hard to search out the topice without the view new threads not working.

HELP

[MM 6,562]

Could you be more specific? How is it not working?

[Obsession 571]

When I press View new posts or sometimes try to reply to a topic it says

 

 

Board Message

Sorry, an error occurred. If you are unsure on how to use a feature, or don't know why you got this error message, try looking through the help files for more information.

 

The error returned was:

Sorry, the board administrator has enabled search flood control. Please wait at least 20 seconds before trying again.

 

 

Waiting a few minutes doesnt work.

 

Thanks.

Have you tried with a different computer? The problem is, it works for me all the time. Trying another computer might lead to a different result. Let me know.

MM, for what it's worth, and not wishing to be a pain I have had the same error message as the original post when moving from Get active topics for:"today" to the drop down box "this week".Can only clear this by coming out of the site.This has been on several different PC's.

'View new posts' button hasn't worked for me for a couple of weeks now. I've tried using another PC but it was no different.

Still didnt work on another computer and its working on ther forums if thats relevant.

I remember PI at night saying that theres a flood control for new accounts to stop someone signing up and flooding the site with new threads. Maybe that option has been tripped as if its a new account?

works fine for me

[Obsession 571]

Fixed it myself

Found an old topic where PP said to delete forum cookies. Theres a bit you click on the forums front page.

Then I changed to firefox browser and it worked
