Sorry I was doing a backup.
No worries... I was just posting qualy results, wrote my post clicked submit and nothing except the error code. I had posted just a couple of minutes before with no trouble.
When I got back in, I was glad to see only one copy of my post was there as I had kept hitting my back button and clicking the submit button to see if it would clear and be working again. I then had the panic thought I would return to find a dozen copies of my post facing me and so stopped and was patient. :wink:

Yeah me too, the refresh trick worked earlier but then it just kept coming up for about 15 mins. I had to go out for an hour but all good now. I just assumed it was @PTRACER doing a back up or something. Only when I saw it mentioned I thought I would mention I had the same.

Hey, no I am not doing anything special to the server today.

I will try to investigate the issue. Last time, it was because of some retard trying to download the entire database. It basically shut down the server.

For some reason, I can't post on the "Speedways etc." thread in the Crash Photos folder - it always redirects me to a page saying "Oops! That page can’t be found." What's happening there?

Solved - seems to have been some sort of a problem with the link to the pic hosting site. However, I'm now unable to delete my test posts...

Sometimes I can not activate the preview (and can not post? don't remember exactly) when I'm trying to use images/links to images but instead I am redirected to the landing page for invalid links (see screenshot below)

Image

As far as I remember, this happened with links from imgbox and imgbb. Has anyone experienced the same issue?

Just had the same issue. Underscores added to post the links.

[url=https://imgbb_.com/][img]https://i.ibb_.co/qBdjp64/grafik.png[/img][/url] did not work.

[img]https://i.ibb_.co/qBdjp64/grafik.png[/img][/url] did work.

It seems the issue is 'imgbb_.com'

I hope this is the right place to ask. When I browse the CPdB, I can't seem to sort entries by date, name or non-fatal/fatal. Example: I have this page saved:

http://www.the-fastlane.co.uk/cpdb/inde ... ?page=list

and there's no way to change the order. Other times I find I can order by date, for example, but then only one page of results appears.

Is anyone else getting a WordPress message saying someone is trying to use "brute force" to get into your account and requires you to unlock it? Never got it before. It's weird.

Obviously whoever's trying to get into my shit is failing miserably lol.
The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents.
