Don’t know if this is related. I was trying to post earlier and it popped to a hosting error. It remained that way for a bit.
Thought I would need to repost, but when I came back my post had gone through. 🤷🏻♀️
@april thank you for your message. We are working towards finding a solution. Until then please refresh the page after you reply and the post will show normally.

Forum Uber Glitch appears to still be in effect.
I am still not receiving notices of new replies on subscribed topics.
I am now receiving email notices of new replies on topic threads I've never looked at (e.g. The Queens Passing...)
@laura-f I just checked your account and you are no longer subscribed to any topics. I am not sure why you got the Queen notification though. Since we updated the forum app and you also made changes in your account with your name, it would be difficult to figure out what caused your subscriptions to disappear while you got notified about a a brand new topic. But all you have to do is click on your alias, and check subscriptions and you can recheck the topics you are interested in.
I don't know about anybody else but for me the the up button is gone.
@jeanne-mayell hmm now I see it, didn't see it before.
HI COMMUNITY, The forum will be disconnected for a few hours within the next few days in order to try and find out the locus of THE GLITCH. They have not given me an exact date or time when they will disconnect it, although I asked that they do it between 10 pm and 4 pm Pacific Time when site activity is low. But they may not be able to let me know. They work from a list of other sites' glitches, and when they are done with fixing something, they go on to the next one and can't estimate when.
I am asking for your prayers and healing wishes that this glitch will be fixed soon.
For me, when the forum is glitching, it feels like it's happening in my own body. I can't rest until the glitch is fixed. But this time, I am trying to just breathe and methodically take the necessary actions to resolve it. In the last 3 wks, I've used many different developers with different specialities to work on this glitch, and each time, there is a several-day wait to get up to the head of the developer line, as they have other sites to fix and developers must tackle their projects one at a time.
Nearly all of the past glitches that have occurred over the years were caused by the incredible growth of our forum along with huge spurts in site traffic that occurred with disturbing world news events.
So we've had growing pains and I have responded by increasing the ram space we use. Although there is a small group of regulars who choose to post here, there are thousands reading and finding solace in this community's hopeful and caring attitude.
It is important to me to keep the site ad-free. To do that, I've worked on a tight budget, so your donations are a big help.Your prayers are also a huge help.
In the next few days (fingers crossed) we will release our latest predictions. I will announce it in an email blast to whoever has joined our list. I will also put a button up in the forum for people to donate for those new predictions. They are our biggest fundraiser!
Sent light and healing to the site and all who are working on the glitch. For what it is worth, as I did so I "saw" clearly in my mind's eye a silvery aluminum latch, like those on a screened door, moving up and out of the rounded hook holding it so the door could open.
