For the last 3 weeks now, I cannot see the Weekly Board Hour topic when it is open. I only see it when it is closed and I cannot ask my questions! Very frustrating. Anyone else having this issue? I use IE 8. I cannot download another browser, because my home computer have a limited space memory left. And at work, we do not have the right to download anything.

The Weekly Board Hour is open from 1:00pm to 2:00pm every Wednesday afternoon (Eastern time)

If you are signed in to the Discussion Boards, there is no reason why you cannot see and participate in the discussion.

Try Internet Explorer 8 compatibility view option. Look for the gear like symbol and you will see Compatibility View in the list of options. Click on it to toggle on or off.

Do this only on the forum page. Compatibility view is turned on and remembered for the web page or web site you are one. So it should not affect eBay.ca listing pages.

To know if Compatibility View is on or off, a check mark appears beside the Compatibility View option when it is on.

You may find some pages work better or worse with compatibility mode on or off. For some, compatibility view make the forum editor work properly. For some (at least in the past) this fixed the eBay Sell Your Item form editor editing options.

But the best solution is to stop using IE 8 if you can. IE 8 is an old browser and is just not well supported by eBay any more. FireFox v31 and previous versions work well with eBay. I am currently using FF v31 on this old XP computer I still use and have little if any issues that I know of with eBay site or forums.
