Forums are broken.

For 2 days I noticed all I could see was the background. None of the content on the site was loading. Eventually I did a bit of digging. For some reason the body in the CSS is set to hidden visibility. Inspecting the element and unchecking this property will show the page as expected, but for every page refresh I need to apply this change.
Can your web guys please look into this? Thanks

If you, or anyone you know, is having a similar problem, I used the "Stylish" Chrome extension to permanently fix the error (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stylish-custom-themes-for/fjnbnpbmkenffdnngjfgmeleoegfcffe)

Just add the code

body {
  visibility: visible;
}

and it will override the default one that's bugging it out!

This problem occurred in Opera GX, Google Chrome and Edge. Probably others as well, but those are the three that I have tested.

I cannot see it on my phone but have had no issues on my PC. I had figured it was a Safari issue.

Which browser are you using on your PC?

Alucardo · June 2021

Just tried in Firefox. Still the same visibility issue.

You may want to 'chime in' on the latter, the former is now closed.

Just don't forget to turn it back on when/if the problem is resolved. Cache stores static content from sites so it doesn't need to continually reload it every time you refresh the page, so it's quite useful.

Thanks for the heads up!

Hopefully they will let us know when the forums are 'back to normal'.
