is there any reason why this is happening? I was trying to see if there was a thread for the 2003 Rebrand, of Challenge and who might have created them.

Page 44 of the BT Sport thread is giving a 'TV Forum is down' message.

http://tvforum.uk/tvhome/bt-sport-european-football-4k-40843/page-44

and Page 45 has no posts. Has something gone awry?

Thank you for confirming the issue.

Cheers, it looks like the embedded tweet on that page caused issues. I've removed it for now and will see what the problem was. I've also put in a job that runs every few minutes correcting the page counts if they get out of sync. Not ideal but until I can pin down exactly what causes it, it should help.

just got this:

Service Unavailable

The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.

Additionally, a 503 Service Unavailable error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Rebooting a server is always a nervy moment but was necessary to fix the bug (details here for anyone interested Very Happy ) But thanks to bizarre firewall rules, when it came back it wasn't accepting any visitors.

Anyway, embedded tweets are back now and should stop the above error too (623058 - you'd included a YouTube link in your post and it tried to go off to the website to get some data, same issue as the tweets)

Out of curiosity, and because we were discussing it over the road, are there plans to move TVF over to HTTPS?

Yeah. In amongst Nick's playground name-calling and overly dramatic post, he actually makes a good point - and it's the right thing for browsers to be encouraging everyone to move over to HTTPS.

Mixed content is the issue as you mentioned and for here I've been toying between just making the login/register/profile areas secure, or doing the whole site. The certificate was bought last year, it's just getting some time to do it. In the meantime, browsing the site is no less (or more) secure than it was with the previous version of Chrome or Firefox.

Has the search option gone to pop? or has it been disband from the recent updated and changes?

It didn't start up after the reboot, is back up and running now Thumbs up
