Some Posts Not Opening

6 years ago

When I click on most posts they pop right up. No lag. But for the past few days several refuse to load. The size of the thread or weather they have pics have no influence on whether this happens or not. No computer issues on any other sites. Only here. Anyone else having issues?

It may be due to the stay at home, self isolate participants slowing the spread of coronavirus along with the speed of the internet.

I can help you with the pics rotating. Sign into your Photobucket account. Click the arrow beside your username (top right), and choose Account settings. Click the Album settings tab. UNCHECK the box which says "IMAGE ROTATION". IF the box is CHECKED then the images will be rotated automatically when uploaded by Photobucket. Now, about the pictures. I too have added many doubles and am very pleased with many of them. I like the SWEEPING SHADOWS pic. Nice soft color. Does WHEN I DREAM stay flat/open like that all day or does it recurve? Nice rich red color. Julia

Please post some pics of red oak clear with water base finish
Q
Comments (7)
I was not specific enough sorry. We are refinishing our old floor and we have added a lot of new flooring (due to cat urine from prev owners) We were going to stain the floors before putting on the final protective coating which in our case we have chosen "street shoes" a water based very durable coating, from what we have heard. We were going to use English Chesnut as the stain but feel it is too dark for the second floor. I have been able to see many pictures of "Natural" stain on the internet. But we are considering no stain just the clear floor with coating of the finish to protect the floors. In our last home I believe the red oak was sanded and then poly oil based was applied. I did not like how orange it became over time. That is why I am not wanting to use poly this time. So I am looking for any pics of floors that were sanded and then not stained, not even with "Natural" and then were sealed with something other than the yellowing poly. I hope this explains it a little better. Thanks for your help!! Amy

Help with railing/newel post(s) on open treads please
Q
Comments (25)
mairin - I guess there's a chance they'd mess up the finished floor if they did that now? Anyway, I wanted the newel just 1 step up, same as it would be if we had a bullnose step and volute/turnout, they could still notch it out to snug up to 2nd tread. But 1st guy didn't want to do that, wanted permnission in writing from building inspector (and now 9 months later I'm even more reluctant to go asking), 2nd guy never got back to me after coming out for a quote and nodding his head yes the whole time, and my cousin who has been doing all the trim in my house (and building new window jambs and stools where the builder didn't do them right) says that he doesn't want to do it, even if we put blocking under the first tread. I guess when they're on the floor they actually are attached to a joist? I showed him pics of crazyhouse6's newel and he didn't think it would hold up to lateral forces (swinging), though it was fine for someone just pulling straight on it. So what do you think of my newel options? Which should I choose? It will be 2 weeks to get the oak contemporary newel that I posted first. The 2.5 x 3.5 blocks of cherry are here, just need to get cousin to cut and route them, I can put clear finish on and get them up but I don't know how they look with oak rail. My favorite is still the vertical volute with a newel somewhere near the bottom, but I haven't even thought of balusters (BC newel and rail with oak balusters?), and I need to find someone to install it.

What is with the Facebook/Twitter carp below my post? Anyone seeing it. I never sync Facebook to Houzz and I don't use Twitter. Just noticed it has appeared on everyone's OPs. When they start that? Is this new or a glitch. I have no desire to have my forum discussion shared on other sites by anyone.

I've had that problem too. I am so good at overlooking things I don't care about, that I didn't even notice the facebook etc extra icons until you mentioned it.

Yes, I have been having that problem for days. Fwiw, it seems to be the same threads that will not open for me even from day to day. I don't see the FB thingy though so I guess I was spared that annoyance.

Ida Claire had started a thread a few days ago, and Emily from Houzz chimed in yesterday I think to say it would be looked at.

Fwiw, I am still experiencing that.

I've been having the same issue for a few days, in fact it took 3 attempts to open this thread. I saw a thread in home decorating conversations yesterday about this and other issues. Emily from Houzz responded that she would look into it.

It was happening to me also but only on Home Decorating Conversations but now it's spread to other forums as well.

Still happening and for example, I wanted to see @ravencajun Zone 8b TX 's thread about super easy mask designed by a nurse. For whatever reason, that one won't open. Add that one to the list .

This one still works though, so there's that. This one.

Mask pattern designed by a nurse, super easy.

I've been having the problem with posts not opening, too. Seems to here and there on different forums.

I don't have any icons below my posts. Are they like the ones you can click on to share something on Facebook, etc. ?

No problem opening posts. This is what shows when you start a post. The facebook logo shows up to the left of the Twitter logo.

I am still having it happen with what seems to be random posts. Once it happens with a specific post, that post is, "dead to me" as Mr Wonderful would say. I am not able to ever open it again.

I've also had some random problems and occasionally get the screen Richard posted.
