    This morning, although I can access the forum, when I try to access any of my bookmarked threads I just get a blank page, although the underlying source code is extensive.  This is using Firefox, which is the latest version but has not been updated between yesterday and today.  I can, however, access everything via Chrome.  Has something changed in the forum's coding which breaks it in Firefox but not Chrome?

    Some coding has changed, as now seeing things I've previously blocked.

    And I think something has been fixed, because the pages are now resolving in Firefox.

    Was posting fine this lunchtime around 1pm on my kindle which is the usual
    Went to look for replied around 4.30pm and the header was there but then a blank screen.
    No footer just white screen.
    Wifi connection fine and I could post on a different site so all well there. It was just this site.
    Nothing changed by 6pm so I'm logged on my laptop where it's fine.

    I can rise and shine - just not at the same time!

    The Quick Links and Categories 'tabs' at the top are on a hair trigger again. If you mouse over either of them from or to your browser's toolbar etc the dropdown appears and takes up half the screen. I am guessing there used to be a delay on them so they didn't trigger as the mouse passed over them

    Still unable to get the forums on my tablet/kindle.
    Since yesterday afternoon.
    I've tried getting into the forums through the MSE site - can see all the rest of it - but it's hard to find any links to the forums.
    Still got a white screen for any of the forums.

    No I haven't. I'll give that a go. I'm not sure how to do it on the kindle but will investigate.

    Any idea what the 3 dots in the circle suppose to do? as all I get is a a blank.
    Not your own user name (that's edit and delete) but someone else's as per above.
    It's like it in Firefox and Chrome (can't test Edge as uninstalled it)
