What do you mean by "cleaned the computer"? Have you cleared your browser's cache?

Anyone see New Posts on their iPhone? If so, what did you do?

Restarting my computer didn't help. Cleaning my browser's cache solved the problem.
Thanks to BTK for explaining to me how to clear the cache in Firefox.

Is certainly was the site, but now it appears to be fixed as long as you clean your cache.

Depends what browser you are using

If Firefox, click on "History" in menu bar then "Clear Recent History"

Other browsers should have a similar arrangement

For a "fuller" cleaning of your computer I suggest you download the free program CCLEANER and run that. I have used it for years with no problems, and it gets rid of a lot of rubbish that accumulates with time.

Clearing the cache worked fine on my desktop computers but not on my iPad. I deleted all the Safari web data in System Settings, restarted the iPad and new posts still didn't work.

Did you go to settings/safari/clear history and website data?

My iPad is receiving New Posts just fine. I didn't delete any web data.
I'm using the latest O/S, and I use Ad Block.

Default New Post is Working

First Thank You to " Talk of The Villages " for repairing the problem. Many do use this site for many, many reasons.

Next a Huge, Huge Thank You for the advice on how to get back to the " New Post " site.

Clearing the History does work as some of you advised.

I am far from a computer person but clear your History and Bingo problem solved.
