Cant pull up new posts. Is there a problem with the LTG, or just me?

Hey guys,

When I click on New Posts, I get the following message:

"DATA BASE ERROR

Open the www.letstalkguild.com home page, then try to open another page.

Any body else get this message??

thanks, gilded

I just got the same error so I'll point Don to this thread since he is the only one with admin access to the server.

FWIW I never use New posts to find things on LTG. It works fine for me on other boards but on LTG something about the configuration on my machine makes New Posts think if I pressed new, I also read them. Never bothered me enough to try and track down and fix.

Thanks.

I've only started using New Posts in the last year or so. It works for me, so I'd love it if it could be fixed.

Same problem here. New Posts is my most used navigation tool, so I noticed this last night. It was late so I just logged off. But still trouble this morning. It's throwing off my routine......

Same here. Like gilded, I just figured that option out last year, and I love it!

Me too.
Have to go to home page and look at "last post" dates in subforums to see which ones have new posts, then open up the subforum.
Things seem to be ok from there.

For the mods, I get this:

Database error

Looks like it's generated by vBulletin.

Yeah I'm sure they point to related databases, since they pull up overlapping results depending on which one you go to first.
Jason, all you have to do is click on one of the "FS/FT" listings and remember what Forrest Gump's mama said about life being like a box of chocolates.

Database Error?

Has anyone else been getting this screen when they go to click on "New Posts" the last few days? I have been here using Safari 10.1 on MacOS Sierra 10.12.3 and 10.12.4.

You can view recent posts clicking on "Activity Stream", but it's not as well organized,

I missed that thread because the "New Posts" link isn't working. Glad to hear it's not just me! Thanks Al.
Yer welcome!
In the meantime I tried opening that broken link and right-clicking "Open image in new tab" opened up a log-in window to something called Inmotion Hosting, at which point I didn't want to enter my LTG log-in info, just in case, and clicking "open link in new tab" just opens the forum home page again.
With the same glitch.

HI guys, yeah, something broke yesterday. I've sent some email to dklsplace; not sure if the other mods did as well.

Hope we get it back soon. Best wishes.
