server down while making long posts

[metulburr]

@[buran] I know you were responding to posts while the forum was being hacked and losing all the content and forced to redo it. I have done this same thing before. I use the Wayback Machine to take a snapshot of the thread i am responding to so i can go back and copy it if need be.

Sorry for the problems everyone and hopefully this issue is behind us. We are still working on the forum.

Thanks for the advise, @metulburr . :-) It really was just one thread and I did try to save my response as a draft when the disaster happened for the first time. And then again - saving a draft, when @snippsat restored it for the first time. I was not close to posting in the thread anyway.
The other thread, i was responding was in the Admins and Mods section, and not critical at all...

Anyway, BIG thanks to all admins who worked relentlessly to resolve the problem.

Just tried to post in Private Inquires section and there is the same problem.
I post in the rest of the forum, but when I try to post in the Admins and Mods Section or in Private Inquires the message is cleared and I get error that message is missing.

Also, I am not able to edit posts. The change is not preserved/visible. There is record in edit history, but not visible edits.
I know there are more pressing issues, so this is just to flag the problems.

one of many reasons i think a board should be developed in Python.

Hey @buran would you mind giving another shot at it?

I think I have solved the bug with posting.

This is an awesome idea.

Currently the first stable forum software in python is being developed. More Info

But moving the current forum and its database to the python software would be very hard & problematic.

Now I am able to reply in Admins and Mods section, byt still not able to post new thread. And actually I realised that I did not test creating a thread in the public part before. It turns I am still not able to post new thread anywhere.

@Developer, Now, because I read you cleared cache and cookies, I tried the same and now I am not even able to login (I write this on my phone). I use password manager and have 30-chars long password. It's not misspelled. Is it possible that it truncates the password in someway? And by the way, login window shows in lower left edge, not fully visible at 100% zoom at FF. In Brave it's again down left but at least visible.

Tell me the issue in more detail

When you try to login do you see any errors or error codes?

EDIT @buran

Thank you for the report, I have solved the authentication error with all current themes.

Please let me know if the issue is still exiting.
