OK here although I am fed up of having to constantly sign in
However, finding their searches a bit hit and miss recently. You know something should be coming up and they are not. Couldn't get them to return any result on 1837-2005. Think they are narrowing down a bit too much.
I have contacted them

If I follow a link that someone posts here, it lets me straight in and I can see the record. If I go to the site myself (without following a link) it asks me to sign in.

I've been using it on and off all morning with no problems, apart from the person I wanted being mis-transcribed. :D
I wonder if it because I never sign out ...???Caroline

I am using chrome Caroline I dont know why but when I try firefox the pages scroll up so slowly it drives me nuts.

I assume that everybody is using an up-to-date version of whatever browser they try, bearing in mind that some browsers don't work too well on older systems, and also that the site has been updated recently?
Have you tried different browsers if you are having troubles with it at the moment?
At the risk of sounding like "I'm alright, Jack", I am using Firefox 38.0.5 on Windows 8.1 and haven't logged out for weeks and am whizzing around there today. (Now I will probably get kicked out too ....)Caroline

I got locked out this afternoon. Told me my password was wrong - it wasn't as it's stored in the browser and autoentered. Tried about 10 mins later and it worked fine. I've been having the logged out issue for about 2 months now. I never log out but lately I find that at the start of a new browsing session I have been logged out and have to start again. I have Win8.1 and IE11 all up to date.Last edited by GallowayLass; 15-06-15, 22:06.

The site went down earlier today. Took them a while to get all of the various bits up & running again so it was acting strangely for a while after. I always check their Facebook pages when I get problems - loads of people were complaining and the admins were keeping everyone updated while they tried to fix it.
The logging out problem is affecting IE11 & Chrome from what I've heard and IE11 is also getting persistent banner messages about cookies every time you land on the "Search all Records" form. Both started when they put the new search forms live a couple of months ago - not that they are admitting it though !!Rick

I have noticed some members on the Great War Forum complaining about the same problem. Just logged in to A and it was instantaneous and all working fine.
I wonder if it is the UK feed or something like that.Whoever said Seek and Ye shall find was not a genealogist.
