I am unsure if this is connected to the reports of 503 Errors or the problems loading the page or the issues with access from New Zealand.
I am in New Zealand which has recently had a restriction or blocking of some sort place on Storiesonline.net that results in 503 errors.
Given that I have no desire to live without the stories and authors on SOL, I purchased Express VPN so I could once again access the SOL site. I can now get to the site and read the stories, however I cannot seem to login via 'https://login.wlpc.com'
When I get redirect from SOL to 'https://login.wlpc.com' and put in my user name and password it just reloads to 'https://login.wlpc.com/index.php' with no apparent approval or re-directing me to the SOL site. It is also the same issue for the other WLPC sites - Story Room and SciFi.
The only way I am able to login and post this is by resetting my password, once I enter the reset code sent to my email address then put in a new password it logs me in and redirects me to the SOL site.
I have taken the following action to try and solve this problem:
- Tried using Chrome, Firefox and MS Edge on PC
- Tried using Chrome on Android
- Tried normal and private windows
- Ensured the Java is enabled in browser
- Turned off adblocking to WLPC and SOL sites
- Added WLPC and SOL to whitelist/exceptions list
- Added the Express VPN extension to Firefox
- Tried different ExpressVPN protocols and servers locations
Any help to resolve this if others have had issues would be greatly appreciated. I have attempted self help based on the last 3 hours of reading forum posts and going through a process of elimination, but I have been found lacking by the login gods.
