To any mods that can see this, I believe that there is something wrong with the site at the moment. You may be well aware of this, but if not, I hope this can help bring to your attention.

I’ve noticed several users having difficulty uploading images recently, so I went to try for myself, and to no surprise I wasn’t able to upload a screenshot either.

I have been trying to help someone who cannot login to the forum, and I have started to think that maybe it wasn’t a problem on their end.

Thank you for reading.

My friend can log in to codecademy to work on his lessons, but he can’t access the Q & A. The tab in the lesson won’t connect because of BAD GATEWAY error and when he google search’s it the page says he needs to login. When he clicks to log in it gives the same error. Any ideas on whats wrong?

Yea I’ve recently had that error a lot too. I had to go to google and type in “code academy forums” and load it that way.

I’m in high school as well, and I had this same problem for awhile when trying to access the site. The only thing I could suggest to you is to try and temporarily disable your firewall. My teacher is not strict and allowed us to do this. If you aren’t so lucky, and have a teacher who may get mad at you, do not try this. Other than this, I’m not sure of a workaround. I know it has something to do with the schools servers.

Has he done anything that might have resulted in getting suspended?

He was able to access it at home, just not at school.

Could try and get a screenshot of what your friend sees when they visit here?

Could anyone else who is having problems please click that link and see if you have a problem? Thanks.

this isn’t a permanent solution, but you could try to go to Google Translate and type in “http://www.discuss.codecademy.com” and open it that way, but i’m not sure if that will even work.

He can get to the page, he’s reading the topic right now but it just won’t let him reply because he can’t login.
