Hi, is anybody else having problems with this site? I can't see photos or post them and no videos either. I reported the issue some days ago, but no advise. Also looks like no bodies posted on the forum, or if they have, I'm not seeing them.

 Hey Taffy, sorry you are still having problems. I tried Edge and hated it. Had nothing but problems with it. I have firefox as backup, Epic as another backup and use Brave. You might try one of those though with both of your devices not working, I doubt the other browsers will work either. If I come up with a decent idea, I'll post it here.

 Good luck Taff. Computers are handy, when they work right, but are often infuriating..

Hi Ray, thanks for your help mate,I did report my problem and asked if it was a problem with me or them., I've had no reply, not even an acknowledgment. Strange that it's just this site when everywhere else is as normal.

Taff, I just have to say that this has nothing to do with which browsers or computers you’re using, it’s the site itself, it operates on a near obsolete platform. In fact, I’m amazed Ning is still up & running, in tech terms it’s a dinosaur. The only reason this site is still here is really for posterity & a few codgers who won’t leave (I’m one of em) :)  Ning has stopped its further development of the platform years ago, so it’s not surprising that this is happening, in fact it’ll get worse as time goes by. It’s a bummer but it’s reality! although I have been here since day one, I think it is time to move on to the FB group like many others have? There are plenty here who are members on both, I’m still asking myself why I never joined the other group? Hopefully they’ll get things back in order soon?

Hey Brian, we would be lost without you buddy,thanks for all that.

I take a look at the FB group. Oh, silly question, what and where are they?

It's a shame, I always say if a things worth doing it's worth doing well. Especially if it's linked to ones business.
Thanks again.
Taff
Ps, this Reply box has reverted back to its original format??

You just go to Facebook & create a profile, then you can access groups? I hear there are many groups besides the Cigar Box Nation group? 

I am having the same problem
When I tried clicking on a picture I got an insecure location warning.the photos are being blocked. You can get around this by lowering your security settings but you should never lower your security settings. If you can currently see the photos and internal videos your security settings are too low. The admin needs to update the security certificate

I’m getting that too, but a simple tap on the reload icon & the pic appeared, but yea it’s another authentication/verification glitch that seems to be resurfacing often? 

Hi guys, I reported problem again but no responce. Went to the Ning site and spoke to someone who checked and said they could see this site and showed me a shot of it, it looked complete.
They said for me try again in a few minutes, I did, and as I thought, they are full of it. Crap. They said they made some adjustments.

 Brian, I have to second Taffy's statement that we'd be lost without you. I refuse to go to facebook due to horrible security issues. (sigh) Hate to see this place go, guys...

Hi, I'm not a Facebook fan either, I have a Facebook business page but just use it to share info around, and nothing else.

I did go to another guitar site, but it was also a ning driven thing. Guess what, I cant get photos there either.

Hmphh! . I got into this hobby to get AWAY from technology...

Hi AGP, hey join the club. I have used the Report an Issue button at the bottom of a very long page, but had no response. I don't think there's anybody on the other end.

I have been to the Ning website and reported it to them on a couple of occasions, they said the site CBN looks complete to them.

They suggested that the administrators of the site should contact Ning.

My broadband supplier is blocking me from accessing photos and video as they say the site is unsafe.

How do we get some action around here????

Two weeks, how hard can it be??
