Default Problem with this forum

This happens repeatedly on here. The website stops, I get a message that there was a problem, it comes back, ten seconds later it does it again, and then says because of repeated problem it won’t open website.
I have tried with and without my add blocker and doesn’t make a difference.

If it makes a difference I use an iPad.

I don't have that issue with my laptop or phone.

May be a browser or cookie issue you're having 🤷‍♂️

Desktop running Mac OS Catalina 10.15.7 using Safari 15.0 browser.

Page loads, then reloads on its own, does it again, then goes grey, with a button prompt to "Reload Page".

There is definitely a glitch.

I typically have about 10 browser tabs open at a time, and this is the only site that does it.

It’s the only this site I have a problem with also. And it’s on all of the site. I go to look at the picture thread or meme thread and can only look at one or two before it stops.

Is everyone that's having issues using Apple products?

No such problems with my access to the website. I come on here 5 or 6 times a day, for about 20 to 30 minutes at a time, from my desktop computer.

It's got to be on your end.

Try to disable javascript and see if the problem stops.

That said, you can go to Apple's own support to see this is not a CorvetteForum-only issue and may be related to a mismatch build/install of Safari. The issue doesn't occur for every website but that doesn't necessarily mean the website is the problem.

Thanks

Javascript is used throughout the site to increase the functionality and is the case for a lot of other websites. So certain features will not work with it disabled. This result just helps to pinpoint the issue is likely with the browser installation. You may need to re-install the browser but the problem may not be solved if the framework mismatch is still present between the OS and Safari, as this appears to be a known issue with Apple.
