*walks in, gets white screen before logging in, gets bad formatting and more white screens.* ...well something's broken :) As p-f1 said, it sounds like it could be an issue with one of the servers (as i can't remember how many there is) which could explain why it's not happening all the time at a gu...

Now we've got embedded youtube videos, is there any chance of being able to embed tweets? Once again, ask and you shall receive :D 601085578386513920 Ok so you can now embed tweets using the [tweet] bbcode. When you insert the bbcode, you need to insert the long unique number from the tweet's URL. ...

Mod Silver

it may be because it's coded to use flash, and i dont know how IE on a windows phone works with flash. I know on my android phone (using chrome), when i click on the youtube vid, it opens it up in the youtube app, it doesn't play it in chrome

Mod Silver

So as a way to embed youtube was requested, I figured I'd start a new thread, and pose a challenge. to find the most silly, random, youtube video ever. So please go post youtube videos that make you go huh, aw, cute!, argh! or HA! Couple of ground rules: 1. No rickrolling, aquarolling or any type of...

I would share, but i suspect P-F1 Mod would:

a. Kill me
b. revoke my power
c. take away my hat.

ok maybe not c but still.

Will we ever be able to embed Youtube videos here? It's something that perhaps 95% of forums have (or more?)

*sticks head round door from doing some lookups* I've not been able to get to the site via www.planetf1.com recently, my guess is that it's a problem with the DNS records or something. planetf1.com, planet-f1.com and www.planet-f1.com all work, and all point to the same place, so they should all wor...

Mod Silver

*smiles* I can do it

Mod Silver

Yeah, it's the caching server that seems to be causing the slowness/the 503 service unavailable error, and I'm even having real issues accessing the Admin Control Panel. *gets hammer*

Mod Silver

As people may of noticed, we are having a few issues currently. I'm in discussions with P-F1 Mod to try and understand what's going on, and working on a email to upstairs.

Bear with us please!

Mod Silver

It's possible that if there's other forums hosted alongside ours, then one of those might of had a heavy amount of load, and if we share a database with them (wouldn't surprise me) they could of taken most of the connections up, meaning some of the users here were unable to access the forum. (Of cou...

Hmm.... Am I allowed to blame AOL? Done some digging into the code, and it looks like the platform the serves the Ads at the top of the screen is an AOL Platform... I'll admit there was a slight scream of horror when I discovered that :-) It's completely possible there's a rogue ad that's doing the ...

Mod Silver

I dont think you'll be able to do that with that type of email account flyboy, as colin said it'll be very limited in what you can do. What I'd suggest is sign up for something like a GMail mailbox, then you could use the 'check mail from other accounts' option to pull your mail across from your cur...

Hmm, I've tested on my iPad and my MacBook Pro (iPad is running ios8 and MBP is running latest OS X) and the forum seems to be loading fine for me in both Safari's. As Ragged said, it might be a case of they changed something in the safari webkit in those versions. Either that or there was an ad tha...

Thank you all, I was getting a little tired of things and decided (with the boss's permission) to take matters into my own hands and have a poke at some of the settings.

Mod Silver

Hmm...not heard of that showing up here before.
James if it happens again, can you get a screenshot? If you do, you can PM me and I'll give a place to send it to.

If anyone else gets this issue, please do let us know here so we can investigate and speak to the techies upstairs if needed.

Mod Silver

oh dear ... *facepalms*
Boss, can we ban him for that?! PLEASE!!!!

Mod Silver

A small victory tonight it seems...if the permissions hold...I seem to have been able to remove the mods showing on the home page, so whoever it was that questioned about Mod_orange appearing there...question no more!

Pedrosa, as stated by Mod Grey we are pausing the thread, not locking it for good. We wish to talk to PF1 Mod before making a decision.

Interesting, Shadow did your posts go missing when you did a quick reply or use the full editor?

Ooh. Not good. I'll put it at the top of the list for the techies, but it might be an idea to check it's not you who has the spyware . I considered that, but found it strange that it stated "http//:forum----" was telling me. Hmm, it's possible that it's just an ad targeted at androids...annoying po...
