LabWindows/CVI Idea Exchange is inaccessible

[Wolfgang]

I have tried several times, both via the main site menu and via direct links to posts.

Other forums and idea exchange sites work (local time: 6:22)

I am seeing the same thing with the TestStand Idea Exchange.

Then on the RealTime Idea Exchange, there seem to be some posts from yesterday that are now gone, specifically from this thread: Add a version number to RT EXE files.

Thanks for reporting this. We are investigating the issue and will let you know when we have an update.

Thanks,
Lili

The two idea exchange boards should now be accessible:

https://forums.ni.com/t5/LabWindows-CVI-Idea-Exchange/idb-p/cviideas

However, please note that investigation is still underway into the root cause, as well as into the other issues reported.

Thanks,
Lili

Here is another thread in the LabVIEW Idea Exchange that seems to have lost several posts: https://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/Extremely-small-pointers-in-Labview/idi-p/3748190

Thanks, we'll add this example to the ongoing investigation.

The comments that previously missing should now be restored, but please let us know if you are seeing something different.

While you are playing with this.  

I sort of, kinda, noticed a possibly related effect.

A lot of ideas got moved to declined.  Yeah the cleanup is nice. But, cleanup posts don't seam to increase post counts for NI reputations .  

Just posting as a symptom elaboration .  Step 2 of a 6 step troubleshooting teknique.

[LiliMcDonald]

Are there ideas you came across marked as declined that did not have an associated comment? If not, then these would have been cleaned up by the idea moderators. For example, Darren left a comment on this idea when he marked it as declined.
