And I'm seeing something weird with the edit and reply buttons, it looks like the blue buttons are now all on the extreme right, all under the regular quote one.

I see something a bit different. PM me and I'll take a look this evening. It doesn't seem to be impacting the ability to post to the forum.

Definitely something weird going on. As Mod, I should see Edit and a few other buttons. Looks like all but "Split" are piled up under "Quote". (Plus the "Quote" didn't display correctly?)

I can't log in on my work computer.  It says there were too many failed login attempts from it.  And that's odd because it was off for the last two days.

Interesting... Was curious, so I logged out on my phone and tried to log in. I got the error message Donner and pwatson1974 described.

Add me too the list of people who can't log in on their home computer. My phone works fine, but my first attempt to log in from home (after a weekend on vacation) was blocked for "too many incorrect logins." I tried having it send me a new password in case that was the problem, but that errorred to.

I get the "can't login in because of too many attempts, so now you're blocked" error too when I try to login from my laptop. I'm posting this on my iPad, where I must have still been logged in because it didn't ask me to do that before I could post this message.

The login issues are fixed for now. It took me a while to sort out what was wrong and how I might fix it. 

This has taken up my time for the night, so I will need to look at the buttons tomorrow. We upgraded some bits when we moved to the new environment, so I think that's that's affected the buttons.

Thanks for your patience.

I was able to login from my home computer tonight.

I'm still seeing lots of topics in the "new and updated" which say they've been moved to one section of the forums or another rather than actually showing how many new/updated posts there are (some of the items in the "new and updated" list do show the number of new posts, but others don't).  The last time I saw that, the problem persisted for a couple of months.  Here's hoping that doesn't happen this time too. :)

Here's what the "new and updated" page looks like to me (attached).  As I said the last time this happened, there's no way I'm going to go into each and every topic that says it's been moved just to try to figure out what the actual new posts are, so the forums are effectively broken for me right now.
