Privacy and transparency FFS!
Came on to add to a thread, can't find tread, constant popups, Privacy and transparency repeated constantly.
See ya.
Bye.
I’ve reported it to the Ezoic techs. Hopefully will be sorted shortly.
Working fine for me. I consider it great value for money....oh, wait...
It's a glitch that's affecting full members too. I'm getting it. While I wait for tech support to come online I've found it's only affecting Chrome for me. Things are better in Safari.
How do I get rid of the video pop up, it’s driving me mad. Somehow it keeps popping up in the bottom right corner of my iPad it’s the fresh goods Friday video now. It drives me mad.
I closed it and when I posted that reply it bloody came up again…..

The solution is to buy an android device from Samsung. No problems here 😎
I’ve found it’s only affecting Chrome for me
FWIW I've had no issues with Chrome on either Android or Windows.
I’m getting the cookies pop up on every page at the moment.
Tech support have been back to me. They are on it now and it should be fixed shortly.
When the site went down on me last night, 😳😉🤣, nothing was happening at all, the refresh line shot across the top of the screen and all I had was a blank white screen. I tried all my different browsers, same result, also rebooted, and just gave up. Tried a bit later, and all was spiffy again then.
It's a total pain in the arse.
I actually cancelled my subscption and then re-enabled it, and now I'm getting a god forsaken cookie banner all the time.
Cookies options popping up with every page change, still happening this morning.Doesn't matter whether you select options or use recommended cookies.
Firefox update applied but made no difference, logged in or not.
FFS, I might have to go out on my bike!
Google pixel 4 and edge and not a problem
Every page change in safari on ipad asks me to log in again....
Running very very slow on iPhone 15 pro max. taking an age to type anything
If I were new here I wouldn’t be hanging about
Just for balance that video keeps popping up in Android as well , glad I haven't been excluded 🤔
The video was appearing on my iPhone last night, not this am though. Back to working fine.
go to your account preferences and there is an option to disable the videos from playing. It isn’t activated by default, so until you activate it, the videos play like you describe.
Not always the case. I have the videos disabled as you describe, however, the FGF video still managed to appear. Not the first time and its very rare and I certainly don't seem to have the issues other folks do. I do like the sound of dousing laptops in petrol and setting alight...maybe just the work one though 😁
Cookies options popping up with every page change, still happening this morning.Doesn’t matter whether you select options or use recommended cookies.
Ditto!
All browsers - all options.
There used to be a mantra when web design first kicked off - make your site as accessible as possible. No flash screens, no click here to enter etc. When did that get kicked from the website design manual? Now it's click, click, click, click, click, click, accept this, prove you're not a ruddy robot and one more bloody click just to get to what you want to see! 🤯🤯
Still glitching for me too this morning. Sorry about this. It’s very annoying I realise. I’m chasing up ezoic support again now.
It's reaching the stage where I'm starting to avoid the site, adverts popping up constantly. I just replied on another thread and it looks like the advert has stopped me typing mid message.
Got some residual cache issues to clear out and then it should be fixed. Sorry for the issues.
Can someone inform 32Red that I really hate Keith Lemmon and the only reason they're getting a 100% clickthrough rate is because it's a really irritating advert and the 'x' is really small?
I've cracked and installed a 'better' browser on my phone. It's not a problem anymore.
Things are better in Safari.
That's not a sentence I ever thought I'd read.
If the down-time was to fix it...
...it's not fixed it! 🙂
We are still fixing 🙁
Can I just add that the site has been running perfectly well for myself, safari 11.7.10, no issues whatsoever.
only because you have a deep-seated, irrational, anti-fruit bias 😂 You will learn, in time 😉That’s not a sentence I ever thought I’d read.
I'm guessing it's because Apple have loads of privacy/anti-malware options enabled by default now, but I'm not seeing any of this crap, works perfectly on desktop and mobile.
Whole forum has become unusable, so many pop-ups and ads to click view just to view posts. Subscribed for a long time to help with cost of forum mostly, but it has put me right off and have cancelled subscription.
It's all a bit 'Ling's Cars'....
I wonder if this current problem is caused by one rogue ad which we're not all being served. That might explain why some of us aren't having any issues.

Not at all. Just a) it's not for me and b) Safari is notoriously problematic with STW. Or if you prefer, b) STW is notoriously problematic with Safari.
I'm pretty sure it was only ever the logging-out thing, which was fixed ages ago. Other than that it's always been fine. Definitely "b" though 😂
I haven't had the other issues, but the site has just been completely down for me for an hour or so.
Well we are having a bit of a 'mare today to say the least.
There's a bunch of people looking in the engine room right now. I'll keep you updated.
...seems ...to ...be ...working ...now! 😬 😬
There’s probably a guddle of things stuck down the back of a server?
I do feel for the techs, it's not going very well today so far!
There's nothing worse, in IT, than being responsible for a server which is currently offline....
Many moons ago in a random China Province in the middle of the night in a service outage window I typed "shutdown -h now" to shutdown my laptop before going back to bed. My laptop didn't shutdown and that dreadful realisation that I'd shutdown a random China Mobile server in a random building in a random City at 2am.
We eventually located the building, found someone who knew where the caretaker lived, got him out of bed at 3am, went back to the building with a bunch of keys, searched 30 something floors to find the server and restarted it....
That wasn't much fun...

Back in "the day," PCs were AT format. One of the features of the form factor was that the power switch actually switched the live & neutral mains supply. Click-on, click off like a ballpoint pen, not like the 'soft' power buttons of today which sends it off into some software-driven hibernate state or whatever.
I was working on a server, had to restart it. Clicked in the power button and almost immediately realised, I'd pressed the button on the wrong server. You know that feeling where suddenly your face goes all hot and prickly? So I'm sat there, my finger holding in the mains switch to the primary (in the 1990s, probably only) email server for the entire company. Ffffffuuuu... Now what?
I released the button and immediately jammed it back down again. There was enough residual current in the power supply to keep it up through a momentary blackout. I got away with it.
So.. Update from Ezoic is that they fixed the bugger! It's working for me now. Hope it is for everyone else.
@dickbarton thanks for that. hopefully sorted it. its only been happening recently but driving me mad!

Great.
How is the ad network managing to mess things up for the entire site, rather than just their ads?
Boom - popping up all the time again...
Had that yesterday on the phone. Chose "more options" but my choices were already deselected, weird
yep getting that dialog on every page, PC using Edge.
Me too, PC and Edge as well.
Yup, and me. Pc on Chrome
Same on Safari on iMac.
PC on chrome fine.
Android phone on Chrome - every page.
No problems on PC/Chrome, but getting privacy message every page using Safari on phone/iPad
It's almost like sitewide problems are problematic site wide, isn't it.
Fine here after rejecting and revoking everything on the pop-up, which is rapidly becoming my default approach to needy websites. Get to ****, I'd rather give them actual money than develop RSI in my index finger saying no to cookies, mailing list subscriptions, feedback forms and whatever other ****ery pops up next. I wouldn't mind so much if I'd actually seen the page before getting bombarded with questions about it. Amazon's started emailing me now asking me to review my upcoming order, HOW THE ACTUAL **** AM I SUPPOSED TO REVIEW SOMETHING YOU HAVEN'T EVEN POSTED YET?
I swear, Wonko The Sane had it right, the world's gone mad. Just this lunchtime I pulled a bag of chips out of the freezer and spotted on the back, "caution: do not eat raw." WHO IN THE... JUST... WAIT... WHO DO WE THINK EATS FROZEN OVEN CHIPS STRAIGHT OUT OF THE BAG? WHAT? [color=red]WHAT!?![/color] HOW IS THIS A THING WHICH REQUIRES A WARNING?
Bugger me gently with a chainsaw.
And to add insult to injury, I've just had the STW popup again.
Bugger me gently with a chainsaw.
Well, I mean I'll try, but I think you'll still feel it nip a bit on the way in 😘
WHO DO WE THINK EATS FROZEN OVEN CHIPS STRAIGHT OUT OF THE BAG?
Erm, would it help to say I'm chewing on one as I type this? No? As you were then.
It's not come back for me since I cleared my cookies and cache.
yeah clear the singletrack cookies did the trick, down from 130 odd to 33
