Everything was fine, I switched to another window, came back and it has been unable to connect ever since.
Win 10, Chrome, AdBlock disabled for this site. Tried incognito mode in Chrome, tried Edge with the same result. Home Wifi network, nothing changed when that happened.
You are not the first I have seen today complaining of connection issues, My guess is it is maintenance or something similar being done on the server. I am waiting to hear back on this though.
In the mean time could you post a link to the exercises you can’t connect to?
I’m having the same issue, getting the error “Unable to connect to codecademy” in the code editor. I’m specifically on the “Lean JavaScript” course (“Higher Order Functions” / 'Functions as Data" section).
Tried the above suggested steps and even logged into my account on a completely different laptop and still the same error message.
Can you please take a look at the following page from the Codecademy Help Centre:
As well as some troubleshooting steps, that page contains a list of the domains which the Learning Environment (LE) needs to be able to access to deliver the lessons and projects.
You should check that there are no issues accessing these domains, which you can do by opening your browser’s dev tools (F12, usually) and checking the Network tab for any requests which are returning an HTTP error code (e.g. 403, 404, 500…). If you’re getting an error code from any of the domains listed on that Help Center page, please let us know.
While re-working through Python 3’s Loops section, I found that I was unable to connect to Codecademy and therefore unable to edit the code editor. This is specifically for page 9/11, List Comprehensions. If I select Back, I am able to connect to the code editor in previous pages, as well as make edits and complete the page’s instructions. However, I am not able to complete page 9 and cannot advance to pages 10 and 11.
I have cleared all of my cookies, historical data, etc. in Chrome, closed and restarted Chrome, logged in and logged out, tried accessing through incognito mode, and tried accessing via Firefox. None of these attempts has enabled me to access the server to complete page 9.
I worked on the JavaScript classes lession. I just stopped for a few minutes. During this time my notebook was in the save energy mode. Now I get the error message: unable to connect to CodeCademy.
I tried to solve it by rebooting my notebook, clearing the cache of my browser and reseting my router. My connection is fine. I use Windows and Chrome.
I have tried a loading the lesson on a different browser, in private mode, clearing my cache/cookies, and loading the lesson on a different computer to no avail.
I was able to bring up another lesson/exercise fine with no connection issues.
I am having the same issues with JavaScript intro. I already did a few sections and have already completed some of the HTML course sections with no problems. Now it doenst work and will not connect.
Please sort this out, as I need to finish the JavaScript intro ASAP.
Please look at my previous post in this thread and make sure that none of the domains listed on that page are being blocked, and that there are no HTTP error codes being returned when you’re in the Learning Environment.
