Where are all the messages?
 

Where have all the messages gone? The topics appear but no messages. Am on AOL but have also tried Explorer and have the same problem. Where is the webmaster?

I'm having posting problems today, I'm made to log in every time, and sometimes it goes through and sometimes it doesn't
I'm on Explorer

It appears the website is having problems. I finally went to DESTINATIONS then clicked on TALK. That worked. Most people won't be able to see this message.

For future reference, I have found that when the website has problems, which does happen occasionally, I go back to Destinations and then Talk. It usually works.

Posting is a whole other problem.

Curious

I've not been able to update for HOURS!!

And I've logged in about a dozen times.

Why does this always happen at the weekend?

Same here Sheila! Nice to see you!

I'm glad it's not just me! I can get the messages if I double click on them. But every time I refresh or switch boards or try to post a reply, it loses my login. I think I'll go do something else for a few hours and hope for the best!

It's acting strange. I've got AOL too and tried Explorer but couldn't post. Am back to AOL and I guess it's ok.

It's off and on and I need to input my login password each time.

It's not an AOL problem. It's a Fodors problem. I'm sure they are aware.

me too, I am clicking on posts that have no responses yet and nothing comes up at all....

Holey, moley! When I try to log in, which I have to do to navigate anywhere on the site, it says my password is incorrect. I've tried to post all morning. I'm with you, Marilyn. I'm outta here until they work the bugs out at HQ.
If you can't read this reply, you'll know I couldn't post :-0

It seems pretty clear now that the site was totally down from at least 6:51 am to 1:38 pm

... and maybe there were intermedaite degree of "working" to lesser degrees after that?

But perhaps it's all moot now.

Best wishes,

I thought it was just me because I was doing some installing on my computer. I thought I must have messed something up.

Well, while it was not working, I did the laundry, corrected research reports, went grocery shopping and cooked a delicious meal. There is something to be said for Fodors being down for a few hours!

i have been having a reply problem since before christmas....not every day and not every sign in but enough to make it annoying, especially after you have typed a long reply...it has been suggested that i sign on directly through internet explorer and when i do this i have not problems...for that reason i had blammed aol, my service provider...it has never not worked, but it is slow when i sign on directly through IE...aol screws with us on so many things i just thought it was another problem

I've noticed no problems at all until this morning, when I couldn't log on and nothing would come up when I clicked on a message header. Do you folks clear out your caches and cookies regularly?

I was not able to bring anything up on search today.

It wasn't working earlier today but it's working fine for me now. I'm on explorer.

It appears to be ok now.

I sent the Fodors editors an e-mail Sunday AM to report the problem and just got this nice response:

We apologize for the technical difficulties. We were having some site problems on Sunday and things should be back to normal. Please try and post and let us know if you are still having problems. Thank you for your patience.
staff, fodors.com

So I am doing as asked. Looks like the problem is solved. Thanks, guys.
