    Problem with A Whole Bunch of Tips & Tutorials I've Learned thread...

    in the Tips and Tutorials Forum.
    When attempting to open the thread I get the following: "This page isn’t working right nowwww.excelforum.com can't currently handle this request. HTTP ERROR 500"
    I am able to open other threads in that Forum, so I presume the problem is with that thread.

    Yes, I just had the same problem - anyone else experiencing the same?
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    I still cannot open it, and Rick just PM'd me to say he opened - and posted there, but now his posts are gone.

    Glenn, if you can open it, can you try posting, then see if they stay there after a while, please?

    I was able to open the thread and attachment (old laptop running Firefox on Linux Mint). Will post a test reply to that thread https://www.excelforum.com/tips-and-...ml#post5435170

    Interesting comment about Rick. I am 99.9% certain that, when I went looking for this the other day, I saw Rick's name as being the most recent respondent. Now he has vanished...

    I have heard, from other sources, that there may be the same issues with some other older posts that have been widely read. I have been unable to reproduce the same issue on the specific threads to which I have been directed.

    I had posted three messages to that thread (each time I read tip that I had an alternative for, I posted it)… and the messages stuck for several hours... then I went to sleep, and when I awoke, all three of my messages were no longer there.

    No problem accessing any of it here (two different devices - Windows 10 - Edge & Firefox).

    Take consolation, Rick, from the fact that while your comments may have vanished... you yourself have not!!

    Well, the tech team have not marked it as resolved on the Google Sheet, so I'm not surprised it's still not working for you.

    FYI, this thread is still broken. I can view the thread while NOT logged in. I can also download the attachment but when I try to open it, Excel says it's corrupted. When I log in and refresh the thread page, the page is just totally blank. Just a white background. This is on FF running win 10.

    It's not your OS or browser, I don't think - I have the same spec.

    Re: Problem with A Whole Bunch of Tips & Tutorials I've Learned thread...

    Still not able to open the "tips" file, and here is my latest interaction - or lack thereof - with the tech team...
    Sure!

    Dec 15 2020 1:05 AM
    Any update on these issues? Simply listing them in a workbook does nothing to resolve them.
    Also, it seems that we have a few threads where posts are disappearing. None of the mods (so far) have said they have deleted any posts, and at least 2 members are positive they did post, but their posts are no longer there.

    Will be taken up today!

    Sorry for the delay!

    Dec 22 11:41 PM
    which delay are you sorry for?

    Dec 29 12:20 AM
    Kind of pointless to apologize for a delay, if that delay just keeps going on, wouldn't you think?
