i think i know what it is but it will take time to fix and i would also have to disable the board
the search index needs to be cleared and re made
it says there's 419625 posts and the search index makes a new entry for each single word in a post
Cheers, you have my sympathies... Be good to get the facility back when you can

An irritating fault has shown itself on my post in 'Plymouth Shooting', In the text "Devon and Cornwall Police's ..." the coding has taken the unilateral decision to insert a flag instead of 'Cornwall'. You can see it in this post too.
I can’t see any posts about this at all.

Only other issue I’ve had is having to login every time as I’m used to filling in my details, then ticking log me in. I’ve tried it the other way around so hopefully this works but it’s a little weird.

The Cornwall issue is sorted.

Clear your cookies and do a restart, should take care of the log in problem.

I had the same issue until I cleared the cookies for the site and restarted my phone, now it is sorted.

unfortunately the old style was out of date and phpBB the creator of the forum software dropped the style 2 main versions ago
this one is the closest to the old subsilver2 style
you can check here https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/styles-2 and see if there's one you like and if its ok with christel I'll add it and you can switch to it in your user control panel
