    Don't know if there is an issue with the site of if it's on my end. But this morning I accessed the 52-59 Ford social group using a bookmark like I always do to reply to a thread by @HOTRODPRIMER. But just now when I try to access this social group I only get a page showing the 3 sub forums I'm a member but can't open any of them. So I closed out everything and got on the HAMB main page and clicked on the Forums button. Still the same thing. I can access the HAMB just fine. So is it a problem with the Forum section or just dumb ass me?

    Possibly the site, possibly you. Standard suggestions are
    Your end
    1. clear your cache and cookies. This should be fairly easy, just search for the phrase with the web browser you use (Chrome, Internet Explorer, Firefox).
    2. Try a different computer, which is kind of what you are doing asking here.
    3. Turn off your computer, then fire it back up.
    Their end
    Number 2 applies here.
    You can go to many places that will check a particular site. This is the first return, but there are many. Choose which you want to use.

    I couldn't access the Maryland Hambers forum. But I was able to click on a thread shown as the latest post on it. Strange.

    Cleared the cache. Turned off the computer. Logged off and then back on. tried to log on from my phone. All no luck.

    Edit: Tried Edge as well as Firefox. Still no luck.

    Slide your curser over the latest subject on the right side and when it turns red click on it and that should take you to the latest thread in that group. at least it did on mine. Screenshot (473).png

    I was able to just do the same, but if I tried to just go to the social group directly, it isn’t working.

    @Ryan , it appears access to social forums is broken.
    Thanks for your help.

    I had the same thing happen when I tried it. One cannot get the main page of the social group to open after you go to that link.

    Yup, something isn't working but I'm sure the boss will get to the bottom of it.

    The issue still exists. We're all just slipping in through the backdoor.:D
