Problems accessing MSE forum using Chrome and Edge

in Techie Stuff
For the past couple of days when trying to access the MSE forum, there is a message near the top stating 'no categories were found', and the page is blank.
I managed to get here using a link from Google, searching for MSE techie.
I can access the forum when someone posts from a thread I'm subscribed to, and have no problems accessing any other site.
Could it be a setting or any ideas what is causing the problem?
Thank you

The forum page numbers are acting up again (no surprise there then) I just fired up my Windows VM and got in with edge. Have you tried bookmarking the techie stuff home page and then close edge and try from the bookmark. Mind you the forum team should know if there are problems heehee4.8kWp 12x400W Longhi 9.6 kWh battery Giv-hy 5.0 Inverter, WSW facing Essex .

Thanks for replying.
I seem to be able to access the forums from my ipad, not signed in, otherwise I have to search Google for the section I want.
It looks like I will have to try as you suggest and access the forum that way.
I can't even see the MSE feedback link to ask about problems.
Thank you

Thanks very much elsien, have now posted in the feedback section.
Much appreciated, best wishes0 -
Chrome on both Ipad and WIN10 works fine for me.
Try Clear Browsing Data under Settings.
To move from one forum to another on the Ipad use "Go to Category" just below the top header.0 -
Thanks Linton, I clear Chrome browser history regularly on PC, and have just cleared again now.
There are no problems accessing the forum until I sign in. It must be something to do with my profile settings for MSE, but haven't a clue where to look on the new forum.
Any ideas anyone?

Update - forums now working perfectly for me. I emailed support at MSE and they suggested that I may have clicked 'favourited' at the top of the forums, which I discovered I had mistakenly done. I clicked the correct setting and all is sorted.
Thanks everyone for your help.0
