Australia's Science Forum

When I came in this morning and tried to access Chemtalk as I do every morning it would not let me load the page. I kept getting an error. Even when I did a Google search I couldn't get into the page. I managed to get in by a very obscure route and now the appearance of Chemtalk is weird. A strange new format and I don't like it! I'm assuming everyone else is having the same experience??!!

Think we are all in the same boat, perhaps its all that rain.

The forum was upgraded over the weekend. Unfortunately, the original theme was reset to the default theme for all users. You can change it back, go into User Control Panel -> Board Pref -> Edit Global Settings -> My Board Style - > choose subsilver from the dropdown, then save. You might have to log out and back in again for it to take effect.

Am I special? No problems here - logged on with out issue and everything looks the same!

Yay that worked!! Thanks Mr Burns! I feel much more myself now!!

So I haven't been able to get onto Chemtalk for 2 days, and I only managed to get on now by a longer route via google???? But I went back out and tried to access it through my usual way but no go!!!!

If you get in again do what Mr Burns suggested above. This fixed it for me!

And me!!
Thanks, Mr Burns

Yep, Well done Mr Burns

Nope, when I got in the format was the old one and when I did what Mr Burns suggested it actually changed it to the new look format, but when I logged out and started again I still can't get in through the old way. I have to go through "Chemtalk.com.au-australian24.com" but I CAN get in so that's ok. i don't have any emoji's though!! First world problems I tell you sheesh!!

Are most of us back on chemtalk. or are some of you still having problems??????????

Hi all, i still have to go through Chemtalk.com.au-australian24.com. i tried Mr. Burns fix but this is still the only way i can get on

It does seem a bit quiet, Sue.

I'm the same as rell

Me, too

We are still waiting for the DNS servers to propagate, it should be done over the next few days.
If you hear of people still having issues getting in by tomorrow, pls PM me or let me know in this topic.

It's amazing how much you count on Chemtalk until it is not there.
I have not been able to get in all week and being someone that logs in several times a day to see what is happening it has been like leaving your watch or mobile phone at home.
it just doesn't feel right.
Glad to be back in touch with you all.

Yay I can get in the normal way again!

Thank goodness we are back online. I was feeling very worried that I couldn't log on or find the web page. Missed you all. First world problem but this is a very necessary part of my day.

Hi everyone, i tried again this morning and it worked properly YAAAAAA
Cheers
