• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Safe Mode?

I was having issues with booting up so I tried safe mode. Well, I can't figure out how to boot in normal mode again with my community folder add-ons...
In other words, how do I get out of safe mode? Any ideas?

Yes, unlike 2020, after using safe mode in 2024, everything stays disabled. You'll have to go into My Library and re-enable everything.

My Library -> Enable/Disable -> Disabled Only. Click on the "Select All" button at the top of the page, and then on the "Enable" button at the bottom.
You'll probably get a few Conflict Alert windows pop up, asking if you want to allow or cancel; I just chose cancel each time. The whole process took
awhile. In my case, the loading circle stuck at 97% complete for over 10 minutes (I started getting worried), but it eventually completed.

I won't be using safe mode in 2024 again, except as a last resort.
