Hi,
I got the news letter email three (3) times this evening.
Regards
Hello Hugh
Were they all for the same dates, same email, same username?
Was there anything other than the above noticeably different with each of the 3 emails?
Have reported this to Steven... No other reports of this so far so may just have been a one off glitch.
Cheers - Neil
That's interesting I haven't received one for a long time (Months?)
Hi Neil,
They were dated a couple of minutes apart and the only difference was the first item, which was probably submitted in that time.
Regards
I take it you have to sign up for the news letter because I have never received one
Yep, there's a tickbox under Settings/General Settings then scroll down to "Miscellaneous Options"... 2nd last option.Quote:

Just as an aside... The newsletters don't go out regularly but in batches from time to time. If we send them out on a regular basis we clog the email server and end up over running our already massive email allowance.
Even i haven't received on for a month or two.
Cheers
Hi,
I got it twice again this time.

Whenever I get the newsletter I generally get two or three of them at irregular intervals.Right now I am more concerned that every time I post the forum software reformats my message and removes the line feeds so it is all a wall of text with no paragraphs. And I can't post pictures or smilies again
Doug your problem sounds like the "I want to use HTTPS even when the forum doesn't support it" problem. Are your URLs https?
Yes they are https and ALWAYS have been, at least for several years. Why would it be making a difference now?Quote:

the forum doesn't support HTTPS in it's current iteration. Remove the HTTPS and just use HTTP. One of the problems that the (delayed) upgrade was to prepare for HTTPS across the board.
As for why it behaves different today/this week - doesn't really matter, it's a known unsupported configuration and the situation you have seen is a known consequence.... (I'm just a forum regular like you, I have no other knowledge beyond having seen this discussion before)
https was only activated for these forums last July or August, not several years as you’ve stated. I suggest you use the http version till the https site has been updated and sorted.Quote:

I never selected anything to make it HTTPS, It just seems that it always has been.
Now, when I change it to HTTP, it reverts to HTTPS when the page is refreshed anyway.
at least you have paragraphs not one long post :)
for now at least
