Cat Chat Feline Forum

Hello, (and apologies to Lilith for the loss of your draft!!!) As Jane has said, this is due to some extra security we added to the site (not just the forum) last week. I've just posted a new thread to explain more if anyone is interested: ( "I am not a Robot" CAPTCHA/ Challenges! ) This e...

Hello, Re: those "I am not a Robot" CAPTCHA / Challenge pages... Occasionally, some visitors to our forum may be presented with a ‘captcha’ or ‘challenge’ page when posting, to prove that you are a real person and not a spam-bot or hacker. This is because we recently installed a CloudFlare...

Hello! Re: CloudFlare / #cloudbleed You may well hear about CloudFlare or the #cloudbleed bug online, or in the news over the next few days, so we wanted to update you with what it's all about, so that you can decide if you want/need to change any passwords anywhere (not just the CC forum!) Millions...

As CloudFlare has been mentioned on this thread, I wanted to post this information about the recently reported (and already fixed) CloudFlare bug, also being called #cloudbleed by twitter! This is both to reassure everyone that Cat Chat is NOT one of the sites affected , but also to suggest that if ...

Hi Antonio, Thanks for that! I've had a look at our current IP filters for Italy, and it's not blocking that many. As you are able to access the site OK at the moment, for now we are thinking that maybe you were just unlucky before, and your connection came over an IP that had also been used previou...

Hi Antonio, Would you be able to give me some more info as this may help to identify the problem you are having please? We aim to set our Cloudflare firewall to (hopefully) not block any of our regular users, whilst at the same time trying to block the many naughty spammers and hackers out there - b...

Hi Lilynmitz, Still have to log on each time though. When you log in, if you tick the 'remember me' button, you shouldn't need to log in each time now. Although, if you clear your browser's cache memory, or have it set to regularly clear (or not store) memory or cookies, then that may cause you to h...

SUPER DUPER!!!

This should all be sorted as of 12.25 pm on Sat 11th (when we installed the new "cookie") so anyone still finding they need to login again should only have to do it the once after that time. Logging in after 12.25pm yesterday will mean your browser has the new cookie. From experience thoug...

Hello! OK - result! we have found out what was causing the issue of not staying logged in after having clicked “Remember Me”. This is now resolved! :D If you are one of the people having this issue, if you are logged in currently - please log out and then log back in again - this time if you click “...

Hello all, Sorry to hear about these problems. We haven't changed anything with the forum itself lately, so we need to investigate other things. If anyone is able to answer the questions below, it would be very helpful..... (1) Once you are logged in, are you being 'logged out' whilst on the same se...

Thank you to our overseas visitors for any feedback on this issue. We are working on getting access sorted for all our genuine Cat Chatters, whilst keeping out the 'naughty' robots! Good to hear the "French" connection is sorted, now for Portugal...! Love & Purrs Yogi & staff xxxx

Hi lilynmitz, Yes, we can change the "Board Index" wording. We can't really call it just "Forum Index" though, as each of the separate areas (Cat Chatting / Lost & Found etc) are technically termed as "Forums", which collectively make up the "Board" - I'll...

Hello again, OK, well that took us all by surprise - the essential maintenance needed on the forum tonight ended up with having to install a totally updated version! So at the moment, as you've no doubt noticed, the forum looks somewhat different to usual. We'll be making it look more like the CC fo...
