** If you are experiencing issues logging in to this community... **

We'd like to apologise for the continued less than optimum experience using this Community.

We upgarded the platform a week ago... and you've been telling us about the issues you've been having - especially logging in. We're working on fixing this, but it would be useful if a few of you volunteered to come forward so that we could take you through a step-by-step process to better understand the issue... and confirm what we think is the problem.

As a general rule, we're recommending everyone to clear down their cookie / browser history *... then login in via the main CIPD website and navigate to the Community. 

We have also had to temporarily turn off 'notifications' to prevent you all being inundated with emails. We're identified a solution fro this and are aiming to reinstate notifications in the next day or two.

Our sincere apologies once again.

Steve

  • Just to add: when I started this morning, I could read the latest threads, but had no access to the forums. The like/unlike function presented as up/down arrows; when I tried to "like" a post, I got a picture of a person who'd already liked it, but my own "like" had no effect.

    After logging out on the main site and logging in again, I've regained access to the forums.  The "like/unlike" function has returned to its old format and it works.  Mystifying!

  • Hi Caroline - the up/down arrows only replaced the 'Like' button within this group (Community feedback). The 'Like' button remains in all other groups, which might be a little confusing.

    We'd like to hear what people think of this 'thresded post' functionality (which we're used to seeing on e.g. Facebook). We're keen to reinstate the 'Like' functionality already though.

    Apologies for the teething issues.
