Allan Bennett Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 For many years I've used a Google bookmark to go directly to the forum on my iPad. I've checked the bookmark and it's still directed to http://www.modelflying.co.uk/formums/ but when I select it it gives me the normal RCM&E banner header, including ad and tabs for the vaious sections, but then the 404 Page not found message where the forum listing should be. If I then tap on the "Forum" tab I get a drop-down "Login" tab, and if I tap on that I then get the forum listing with me already logged in. I appreciate this may be an issue with my iPad, but I wonder if the address for your forum page has changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The forum name was recently changed, it now reads forums.modelflying.co.uk as above just create a new bookmark, clearing cookies won't make any difference.

Allan Bennett Posted July 21, 2023 Author Share Posted July 21, 2023 Thanks guys. All my bookmarks were created on my Windows PC and are saved in my Google account, but iPad doesn't seem to give me the option to create a new bookmark. Anyway I've managed to edit the address on my existing bookmark, and it's working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan Bennett Posted July 21, 2023 Author Share Posted July 21, 2023 Thanks John, I had tried that icon, but wasn't patient enough to scroll right to the ".... More" button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Bennett Posted July 23, 2023 Author Share Posted July 23, 2023 Having got the shortcut working, the site is asking me to log in each time I access it, even though the "Remember me" box is checked. When I do enter the correct email address and password I get a "Sorry something went wrong" error message. That's with my iPad in landscape mode, but in portrait mode I still get the log in request but when I tap it it logs me in without me having to input email address or password. Wierd!
