Forum Not Displaying in Chrome

Meta
1

After clearing the history in Chrome this morning, the forum won’t display. I get the row of buttons across the top. Nothing else but white. I had to resort to IE to get in. I looked at a couple of Discourse-based forums and they display fine.

Any thoughts as to what’s going on?

Windows 10, Chrome 55.0.2883.87 m which it says is up to date.

I guess you’ve tried the reload button?

Multiple times. Restart, cold reboot, etc. So far no joy.

And other tabs load correctly?

Yes. Everything else loads just fine. I hunted up other Discourse forums to see if it was on the Discourse side but the forums I tried loaded fine.

I’m not interested in going back to use IE. Maybe this is a sign.

does the R-click >> webInspector tell you any thing?

any red digits in it’s menu bar link to the error messages…

Good suggestion although I don’t know what to do with what it’s telling me.

@sam or @Barry might know as it seems to be a discourse plugin failing to load…

ad-blockers do this sort of thing. Did you install a browser extension recently?

Just for giggles, see if the forum loads in an incognito window.

No. Not that I’m aware of Jim. It was working earlier this morning before I cleared browsing history. I didn’t install anything after that.

@Shep, it does load that way.

It might be Ctrl + F5 to force a clean reload but don’t hold me to it.

I’ll give it a try.

Update: That worked! Thanks.
