Generally speaking it takes about 24 hours for all DNS servers worldwide to be updated and it very much depends on each ISP.

Indeed !

You would think electrons would find it easy to flow down hill, but they didn't.

It took more like 48 hours before my down-under ISP caught up.

In future I shall refer to them as the "down-under and way-behind ISP" :D

I have also noticed the problem with posting from an iPad. An alternative to the setting changes mentioned here is within the forum posting window, at the end of the options such as typeset etc it says HTML. Click on that and a window appears that can be typed in.

This post made me wonder if anyone had the same problem as me when it comes to posting on the forum using an iPhone? I find the interface is really clunky and I cannot type into the reply window that pops up. Anyone else had this problem/is a fix possible???

j0hn,

Go to: "Edit Your Profile"

Second tab: "Site Options"

Third entry: "Content Editor" ...switch to "Plain Text" ...<click> "Save" at the bottom.

That will do it, but I find myself constantly flipping between "Plain Text" and "Enhanced" depending on what device I am using.

Thanks Jeff - will try this one out :)

Keith has been doing a huge amount of work behind the scenes and its is thanks to him that we all have this site working as it does. I know Lee has said we would be nowhere without Keith and I agree completely.

Dear Beoworld Members,

The problem you noted was caused by me, let me explain..

Two weeks ago I had moved the Beoworld web site to our new dedicated server, but to allow payments with credit cards for membership etc, I needed to install a new SSL security certificate which finally arrived on Friday. However, before I could install the new certificate I need to change the DNS from forwarding to the server to being on the server.

Because I was moving the www.beoworld.org domain, all sub-domains were also effected including the one to the forum. Everything was all done by about about 6am this morning except not all DNS servers around the world will have been updated. Generally speaking it takes about 24 hours for all DNS servers worldwide to be updated and it very much depends on each ISP.

Apologies for the problems, but our actions do allow Beoworld to provide a better service once all the changes have been made, more on this in the near future..

I can not even get onto beoworld.org ..... and i am not logged in .... i used it last week from the apple store and ipod touch at home ok so i know it was working ,,,,,

I also noted that the individual forum pages are not in google anymore .... When I used to google B&O there where tons of hits pointing to beoworld forum pages ..... That is a biggie in my opinion .....
