ECTACO Forum Down?

Ken Maltby · 07-15-2011, 11:11 PM

It seems that the official Ectaco Forum is not available today, or is it just
me?

Seems to be back up now, at least.

EDIT: My mistake. All of the sub-forums seem to be looping back to the corporate home page. Don't think I've ever seen that before!

It is odd to be on their forum home page and see yourself as the only one listed
as online. Well, at least part of the server is up. Wonder what is going on?

I see Ectaco forum works now
http://www.ectaco.com/forum/
I think they did some updates

Only some of the forums work for me. Unfortunately, Jetbook is not one of them.

The Ectaco Forums including the jetBook Forum is working for me now. I don't see
any obvious change so far.

I still get sent to the Ectaco home page from the Jetbook forum.

Ken Maltby · 07-20-2011, 09:46 PM

It has been the case for some time now that when you first select a thread, you are
sent to their home page with the current deals and such. I just hit the back button
while the page is loading. Then selecting a thread gets you to the postings.

It is annoying, and because I seldom let the home page fully load, counterproductive.

Just hit the back button and redo your thread selection.

That doesn't work for me. Oh well, it it's been going on for a long time and I didn't know, i guess I don't visit the forum very often.

Ken Maltby · 07-21-2011, 08:01 PM

It's still working for me, not that there is anything much going on there, either.

It's messing up again.

The US forum URL gets diverted to the US Ectaco Main site. Oddly, if you go to the UK
site and click on "forum" you get the same English language forum site, with the same
posts in the same subforums.
