Just wondering if anyone on here is having trouble this evening searching on here. ?When I search a census it says, sorry an error has occurred and for some births, marriages etc but not all searches.

Maybe its just a temporary blip?

Still having the error problem. This is now 24 hours and makes the site pretty useless :-(

What about you, Florence in the Hebrides? Any luck for you on this sunny Thursday morning?

Ironic that my message to the Support Team came up "An error has occurred ....."
How much longer, I wonder?

It took 3 efforts to open a pm, but then succeeded, and the reply also has been sent.

This is related to your post .I’ve been member several years used to visit daily to read posts. But for months now to read a post you have to click in post that says you have to accept cookies. I thought was my device although I looked in three different devices all same problem. Spoke to a cousin here in Aus who’s also member she’s stopped visiting here too same problem. I don’t know correct computer terms but I’m thinking big problem/glitch .I looked on here before Christmas scrolled back see a post from chap saying basically same thing but it would take me too long try find his post again with all pop up cookie posts. Florence have you or other members experienced as well as search problems?

It’s been a thing on the site for some time

I just accept and then go to the boards

It’s not a glitch it’s a new legal protection law
