I've reset the error logs, can you give it another try, and post right after to say you've done it? Thanks.

Just attempted to post an image but no luck.
Tried to post another but without success.
The problem of clicking on a link within a notification Email also persists, ie wrong colour scheme and log in required.

When you click on the notification email is the address https?

No. This is the link to your post in the notification Email...

Ah, that's probably why you have to sign in.

From here it looks like you are browsing the entire site as http.

The only link that is https is the soundcloud button that appears in the quicklinks menu.

I'm getting out of my depth, I'm afraid.
Is that state of affairs a 'fixture' so to speak, or is it possible to make changes and restore the situation?

He's talking about the website's address at the top of your browser. Which of the following does it say?

http://www.cellar.org
https://www.cellar.org
http://cellar.org
https://cellar.org

I've closed down my PC for the day (posting on iPad where the problem doesn't occur) so I'll have a look first thing tomorrow.

I use Firefox so it might be worth trying another browser and seeing how things go there.

Many thanks for the nudge in the right direction.

Lools to me like the emails are giving you bad links (not bad, per se, but basically the whole internet switched a while back to using exclusively https because it's more secure) and some browsers are automatically fixing them once you're here and click on something new?

Probably never got noticed because you're the only person who gets here via email link instead of navigating to your drug fix directly like the rest of us.

Not strictly true, Clod!

I do like to keep a number of threads 'under observation' as it were, so the notification Emails are very handy.

However, I am more often found foraging around the board in general.

Once again, thanks for your help and observations.

Try Chrome rather than Edge.

Google can be made the default search engine on Edge too. That's what I did and I use Edge all the time without problems.
