Rare Lois R Posted December 2, 2018 #131 Share Posted December 2, 2018 The reply given from CC does not make sense (or work)......I get the same message about the page not being found or something like that................I am on here now using Chrome but still had some issues.....and my normal IE does not let me click on anything because the page keeps refreshing, and refreshing, and refreshing, etc...........

Not that is makes any difference , it was in the Announcements- I pointed someone towards it a week or so ago.

Rare dickinson Posted December 2, 2018 #140 Share Posted December 2, 2018 6 hours ago, Turtles06 said: I don't disagree with you that CC has become a big hassle. I am very concerned that the Boards will be losing (and have already lost) members because the "new" site has been so difficult to use, and continues to have glitches like this that are totally off-putting. As I mentioned in a separate thread, I emailed the Help desk yesterday about this repeated refresh issue. I received an auto reply (I'm sure I'll get a real answer) that said the following: Quote ** Some members may be experiencing issues with staying logged in on the forums. We are working on this issue and hope to have it fixed as soon as possible. This info has helped relieve the errors for some members: https://boards.cruisecritic.com/topic/2596530-log-in-staying-logged-in-access-issues/ We apologize for any inconvenience. ** The irony is that if you click on the link they sent me, you get a web page that says this: Sorry, there is a problem We could not locate the item you are trying to view. Error code: 2F173/O Look on the screen. On the left it says Home in light gray letters. You can click on it and it takes you to the home page. I believe that is a workaround.

Rare h20skibum Posted December 2, 2018 #141 Share Posted December 2, 2018 The flashing is nonstop on chrome and safari on a mobile site. I have had some luck opening an incognito tab and logging in. At least it doesn’t flash nonstop then. The downside is that you constantly need to log in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alibabacruisers Posted December 2, 2018 #143 Share Posted December 2, 2018 (edited) Yes I am still getting the flashing back and forth using both Edge and IE. It took me forever to be able to get anywhere with all of that flashing back and forth. I wish they would hurry and fix it!!!! I tried talking about the problem in different areas of CC but I feel like a pariah or something because I repeatedly complain about the same stuff we are all talking about and the "tech people" (those on the forums with so much detailed knowledge about computers) suggest things that don't work or I don't understand. It also feels like they are trying to minimalize the problems I, and others, are having. That all makes this very frustrating. All I want is to be able to navigate this site as I used to without thinking about signing in/out flashing issue, which did not happen this way before! I don't care about the details of why it happens because I know it happens and it affects how I try to use this site! I also shouldn't have to clear cookies every time I come here, especially when it only works for one time, and creates problems when I go to other sites. Didn't have to do any of that either before. I agree with the OP who said CC is losing people to all these problems. I already have reduced, dramatically, my usage of CC and certainly have not recommended it to anyone since all of these changes. Sorry for the rant, but I am so frustrated and it seems that we are being told to just deal with it! 😡😥 Edited December 2, 2018 by alibabacruisers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare broberts Posted December 2, 2018 #144 Share Posted December 2, 2018 @alibabacruisers the problem appears to be in the website code so only CC is going to be able to fix it. In the meantime one can use incognito/private browser sessions. But this means logging in every time. CC does know about the problem. No idea if IT knows or what they might be doing to address the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Initially I only had the problem on Safari, but now it's happening with Chrome as well. For me it's a relatively new problem, within the last few days. Everything seemed to work fine prior to that.

No matter which one I pick I get page reload over and over. The work around for me is to simply click any of the others in my favorites and it loads right away. Each subsequent one will as well. Same effect as what I posted. The link I gave is a catch all that will work in case one does not know a specific valid page URL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You and I both have been on CC for a long time so we do know with time they will normally get problems fixed ... but it's a pain until they do.
