And we’re back! Our apologies for the recent site downtime and thank you for your patience. The site had to be taken offline while we fixed ongoing server issues.

Bad News: during the fix we had to roll back the site to July 23, so you may notice some recent posts missing. We hope you’ll help by reposting any missing threads / posts that you remember posting.

Good News: as part of the fix, we also upgraded the server, so the site should now load faster than ever!

Note: The search index is still being rebuilt, so search results and your content page will be blank/incomplete until rebuild is finished.

If you should experience any unexpected issues, please reach out to us via the Contact Us link at the bottom of the site.

Thanks again for your patience and welcome back!

_________________________

P.S. - If anyone has an alert bubble that they can't clear, try this solution:

1) open your full alerts page: https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/account/alerts?show_only=all

2) scroll down to the bottom of this page and click on "select all" and "Mark read" then click "Go". This should hopefully clear your alert bubble.

3) if that didn't work, repeat step #2 for all successive alert pages (if you have any) - i.e. pages 2, 3, etc..

Doesn't seem like a complete restore to the July 23rd point yet. When I look at my Content in my profile, there is nothing there. If I try searching on some terms or another member's name, nothing comes up. Is all that still to be rebuilt?

Yes, reason is because search is still being rebuilt.

Well, The forum was certainly missed, at least by me. When I checked the site, it at first said "Down for maintenance", then there was something about "Cloud....." something like the company who was doing your servicing had taken you off line. I was Hoping it was NOT because the site was Hacked...
Glad Your back...🥳

Thanks for all the efforts you put into keeping the site working. I know well that it is a largely thankless job and the only time have anything to say is when it's NOT working.

So: Thank you!

As a former Systems Administrator (now retired...) I can attest to it being a thankless job. As with all others who have commented - I am really glad you're back and appreciate what it took (and is still taking) to get back up
