I have tried to post a new thread to the forum using Google Chrome for a few days. I tried from two Linux systems and a Windows laptop. All of them gave me an error about "Your hashcach string is not valid."

I was able to post replies to other threads not created by me, but I could not create my own new thread.

I finaly tried Firefox and I am able to post.

I removed Grammerly from Chrome, it is known to cause problems with some sites.

I have not looked at debugging the page in Chrome. Maybe later.

This is just an FYI to anyone having problems posting with Chrome.

Hi Alan, I've adjusted your user account

Sorry to hear of your problems posting. Allowing legitimate users to post whilst stopping most of the spam is a real balancing act and unfortunately I'm not quite sure why people such as yourself seem to have such a battle, whilst some spammers still manage to get through...

Anyway, I've adjusted your user account so that you will now avoid most of the spam traps. So you should now be able to post ok. Please let me know if that's not the case.

Same issue on Microsoft Edge

Submitting on Microsoft Edge didn't work either.

I'm having the same issue.

I can't post new forum issues in either Chrome or Firefox. Please help.

Thanks for your heads up regarding your difficulties posting to our forums. As you note, this will hopefully be helpful to other users.

For what it's worth, I've also modified your user account so it can now bypass most of the spam filters, so hopefully you don't have any further issues posting, regardless of the web browser you use.

Thank you.

Thank you.

As mentioned in the OP, I did not have the issue when tring to comment on an exising post, so this reply works from Chrome.

I will try creating a new post to test the work around when I have a new thread to share.

I've adjusted your account too

I thought it was just because I was a newer user, but I'd appreciate being able to post my issue.
