We've had to expire the cookies, so you'll have to log back in. We're still working on seeing if what we've done on this subject has addressed the problem.

jpishgar · Nov 27, 2018

Anyone else still experiencing this issue? If not, we believe we fixed it.

https://forums.anandtech.com/forums/ is blank

cache clear did not help

ie seems to work, but ie is horrible

mdram · Nov 28, 2018

ok, it started working now, strange

zebrax2 · Nov 29, 2018

I still have this issue. Clearing the cache doesn't seem to work and using a different browser (edge) results to the same blank page

@jpishgar

Just encounter this issue myself.

One machine is working properly. The other machine gets a blank page, clearing cache, cookies, history does not help.

no matter what browser it uses, yet it worked perfectly fine yesterday!

==

Tested on another VM, only blank page for newly installed Chrome and IE browser that comes with Windows installation. No errors, no nothing. Just blank page. Yet my main PC works fine!

allisolm · Nov 30, 2018

Just ran into this. Win 10 laptop using chrome gets me a blank page for forums.anandtech.com. It's been fine since the upgrade until this evening. Ipad mini does not have the problem. Android phone with chrome does.

LTC8K6 · Nov 30, 2018

Happened again with Chrome.

Cache clear fixed it.

mxnerd · Nov 30, 2018

Tried clearing cache / cookies & history again, it works for all browsers on another machine now.

==

Well, the browsers in VM still won't work after clearing cache/cookies/history.

Only anandtech's favicon.ico shows up on web page tab.

Cache clear did nothing for me.

Think the blank page problem definitely has something to do with XenForo 2.0

D'oh, just happened to me today. Went to forums.anandtech.com and was greeted by a blank page. This was a few hours ago

Now, it's fine.........go figure *shrugs*

Same problem here , blank front page. Solution for me was
1.go to any subpage like threads https://forums.anandtech.com/threads/ which does load a error page of thread not found
2.go back to main page which will be blank , but a force refresh (ctrl+F5) and it works again

Does not work for me if i skip step 1.

Edge,Firefox,Chrome all had the same issue

Does anyone remember what they were doing last before it happened? Did it happen as you were browsing the forums or the next day when you came to the forums for the first time that day?

Happened the next day, just turned on the computer, went to FF, mashed the quicklink, and was blank

What is the exact URL of your quicklink? Does it have a trailing slash at the end? is it set to https or http?

Main page is blank for me.
