GW - Darn Oreo Cookie AD is distorting the Forum!
Comments (17)I also have a Macbook Pro with Safari and this was not a pop up ad, it was a banner ad from the top that moved down to cover the links at the top and turned the entire page blue and would produce a new tab with a cookie ad in it, if you tried to navigate the page clicking on any part of the page to scroll or open a thread. I have not seen a problem today at all. I think there was something wrong with the ad itself. I already have my settings set for 'no pop up ads' which I don't have a problem with. And any 'moving' ads are usually 'disabled by disabling plug ins' in my browser preferences, but doing that didn't help in this case. I don't use Firefox. I can see stationary banner ads along the top and the right side of the screen, on GW but I ignore those....See MoreAnother GW vs Houzz help me post
Comments (19)Strange, starting last night, my bookmarked gardenweb links no longer work. When I click on any of them, they take me to the same Houzz Page, which also shows me as not signed in. This morning I tried the links to the three gardenweb boards I visit and none are working. Last night, it was just happening with one. Now this morning, it happened with this board. Im using my same iPad I always use, I haven’t changed anything, haven’t cleared my cache or reset my iPad that would’ve logged me out of everything. Basically I haven’t changed anything, but boom, my gardenweb links stopped working. I started to type in www.gardenweb.... and the gardenweb link to this board popped up in my history, and when I clicked on it, it brought me here. Phew! But when I click on my bookmark link, it takes me to Houzz. I wonder why all of a sudden my bookmarked links are now redirecting me? Last night when I was having trouble accessing a different board when my bookmarked link kept sending me to Houzz, I managed to find it by coming here first, with my bookmarked link, then from here, I then looked for the main gardenweb board menu and and found the board listed there. I then bookmarked it again. That new bookmark still takes me to gardenweb whereas the bookmark I’ve had since I joined years ago now only sends me to a Houzz page (not even the Houzz version of the board I’m trying to visit. edited to add, my new bookmarks this morning now don’t seem to work either. If I can’t bookmark my favorite boards anymore, I’m done with Gardenweb/Houzz unfortunately. I visit here frequently on a daily basis, but if it takes me several minutes to try to find my favorite boards b/c my saved bookmarks no longer take me to them, then I give up. And the weird thing is, when I click on my bookmarks now, it takes me to Houzz, but it’s just a random Houzz location, with tons of unrelated threads from different boards....See MoreGosh darn *%#!! HOUZZ!!!
Comments (13)This is aggravating and the worst part is that it's so erratic that I can't figure out hot to fix it. I'm just hoping that one day it returns to normal. I can access this forum on all 3 device through my bookmarks. I can use my bookmarks on my iPhone and iPad to access the KT. But on my Mac it goes to that inane "36 table table discussions/all questions." I can access a specific thread on the KT using the bell....See MoreIf you're having problems with errors, sign in to Houzz instead of GW
Comments (6)What's odd for me is I could not sign on with my bookmarked page and once I got in still could not sign on to this forum, but I could others....See More- last year
