Site broken

[Andrew Lee]

Thanks Nick.

This is what I will do. I will check on a daily basis, and refresh if need be.

After 1 week, if it is still not auto-refreshing, I will switch to the site RSS and turn off feedburner.

Feedburner used to be a defacto thing if you are running RSS, but that time is long gone, and I think Google has totally lost interest in it and just barely maintaining a foothold on the property. All the stats and numbers that you used to be able to access has also disappeared, so I am not sure if it still makes sense to continuing using it.

We gotta fix the site, I wont know what else to do all day.

The site keeps logging me off too.
It happens after every refresh or new page browsing, unless I check "Remember password", but even that just delays it for a couple of minutes.

Is anyone else having this problem? I am mostly using Vivaldi for TPFC and it's been OK for me so far.

Is it possible to turn off all extensions on your browser and see if the issue persist? One possible reason is the interaction between a browser extension and Cloudfare. I am using uBlock myself with Vivaldi.

FWIW, I'm on Firefox ESR and I haven't had any login issues so far.

Using the latest Firefox It seems to be fixed if uBlock is disabled, but it shouldn't log off due to it.

Feedburner is not auto-refreshing no matter what I do, so I think there's no point going down this rabbit hole anymore.

I have changed the RSS feed link to an internal one:

https://www.portablefreeware.com/feed.php

but you will need to update the URL in your feedreader as well.

OK, I will test with the latest version of Frefox w/uBlock for the next couple of days and see if I can reproduce the issue.

I am also using uBlock with Vivaldi and it hasn't caused any issue for me so far.

Andrew,

I am using the new feed link https://www.portablefreeware.com/feed.php and it works fine. Thanks so much for the follow-up.

Cheers,

Nick

Alright, all entries now lead to 404...confirmed in multiple browsers and also without uBlock.
That is, portablefreeware.com/index.php?id=XXXXXX
Maybe it affects other types of links too.

Oh boy, that probably counts as one of stupidest coding error I''ve ever made.

Fixed with much apologies

BTW, 2 days with Firefox + uBlock and no issue so far. I'm on latest v93.0 running on Windows 10.

Maybe some other addons interacting with uBlock that is causing this issue? If anything comes to mind, do lemme know.

But latest is v135.0.

Haha! That's weird.. last I looked at "About Firefox", it told me v93.0, but today when I brought up the screen again, it decided to download v127.0. Then after an update and restart, it decided to downloaded v135.0 automatically and apply! So after another restart, I am finally up to date on v135.0.

I will wait for a couple more days and report.

No problem, meanwhile please make sure you use the latest Firefox uBlock v1.62.0.
