Web forum software seems broken again (for me)
Had given up using Chrome or Safari and switched to Brave. The forum software since this weekend no longer functions correctly with this browser. The notifications popup no longer works (it hangs) and I cannot edit posts (it also hangs). To tie into another thread about why traffic is so lite here... well... This could be one reason (at least for me).
RE: Web forum software seems broken again (for me)
OK, I dug into this a bit more and this is what I see when trying to edit or look at notifications:
Request URL https://forum.prusa3d.com/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?lang=en Request Method POST Status Code 403 Forbidden Remote Address *.*.*.*:443 Referrer Policy strict-origin-when-cross-origin
I masked my IP address but it looks like a CORS problem

Not CORS, most likely Cloudflare issue.

You can add “Like”, “Quote” and “Preview” to your list of things that don’t work in Safari.

@same-old-shane My IP address is getting blocked by CloudFlare. More than 1/2 of the site's functionality is unavailable to me since last weekend. Could you forward this to the web devops:

RE: Web forum software seems broken again (for me)
Not sure if it's related to this, but I can no longer see the preview of my posts. When I click the preview button nothing happens. That's been happening for the last two or three days. ( Windows-10 and Chrome ).
RE: Web forum software seems broken again (for me)
Yeah Ive got the broken notifications thing also.
Safari on MacOS , various versions.

Edge doesn’t seem to be working any better than Safari.
RE: Web forum software seems broken again (for me)
I can’t seem to get the “Like” button to work. All that happens when I press it is a rotating icon and the text “Trabajando”.
This is on Safari on iOS by the way. And it worked without issue several weeks ago.
RE: Web forum software seems broken again (for me)
I'm seeing the same thing here. I can click the "Like" button, but other than it saying "Working" for hours on end, I don't see any change.
RE: Web forum software seems broken again (for me)
just a quick heads up. I was on vacation last week, and just got back now so will be investigating and see what the most logical next steps will be.

From Discord:
@Tommy_Prusa3D — Interesting and thanks for the report. We had some attack on this site for some VERY specific endpoints and did have to adjust some security for it, but it's weird that it would affect some users differently and doesn't make much sense for me. I'll definitely report it. In the meantime, we are nearing stages of publicly testing the new platform that will mirror the forum, Discourse

Update;
the forums "SHOULD" be fixed.
reapplied the duct tape and chewing gum.
removed wrenches from moneys.
used ultra bright flash lights on gremlins.
Are these interruptions a pain in the !@$? YES! but there is progress and the forums will have a overhaul into a new system / format where we will have more control and know how on how to fix things and will not need in-depth developers assistance for most of the problems here (hopefully).
I appreciate the patience with this and assure you its being taken seriously and I believe you will all like the upcoming changes that will alleviate a lot of the problems and also the submissions from the community for changes and additions to the forums.

The forums seems to be working again for me! I can imagine that it may have been a great deal of work for you to handle all of this, so thank you for caring and getting things fixed! ❤️

Yup. Seems fixed for me! Yay! Now I can clear my 35 notifications and like people again. I'm still getting popup notifications in random languages but I can live with that.
