Works perfectly for me, thanks. Almost bashed my head in when the extension thing wasn't working for me in chrome.

Still having issues after doing the method for Chrome

EDIT: after posting fixed? wth? It did it before, but went back to the weird formatting with no HTML base and whatnot

There is no need to do so much hassle. Just add subdomain www. before the hackforums and your off the horse :) It is just wrongly settup CDN and subdomain usage and redirect :)

Once again when you go to private messages it adds www. before the hackforums so thats why you get part of it but if you do it manually it fixes it self out :)

Try it hackforums.net not hackforums.net.

Eventhough I do not know why firefox does not work because it pushes www. everytime!

If it were this/that simple almost no one would be having problems. But alas, it is not. It literally is
because you cannot reach the .js and .css files (or images) directly anymore and you need the
hackforums.net referrer in your referrer field. Much like this:
Referer: https://hackforums.net/

Code

https://hackforums.net/usercp.php

GET /usercp.php HTTP/1.1
Host: hackforums.net
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0
Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8
Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.5
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
[b]Referer: https://hackforums.net/[/b]
Cookie: moo
Connection: keep-alive

HTTP/1.1 200 OK

I literally do not know how else to explain this to people. It is THIS simple. If your issue is the theme
is broken and you cannot see images, .css or .js files directly; It is because you donot have a
referrer being sent to the HF server. That is all.

There is no difference between www. and no www., it's more or less a convention. If it was as
simple as just adding a www. to beginning of every URL, Omni could have gone to his .htaccess file
and put:

Code

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^hackforums.net [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://hackforums.net/$1 [L,R=301]

Back in the 90's www was just a way to distinguish a web server from its mail server, ftp server,
whatever server, etc etc...But like I said, just try to visit a css file on HF without a referrer.
Get a 403? That's because of the permissions Omni has amended. Go to the CSS file WITH a HF
referrer, and you can see the css? There you go then. Clicking on any link, making a post/thread,
all that crap. When you click a link you automatically set the referrer field to hackforums.net because
that was the previous page you were on.

I'm not trying to rant here guys, but I've said the same thing like 100,000 times now. I almost want
to make some grand tutorial on browsers, http headers, and how servers interact with them. ._.

Sense or nonsense adding www. fixes the problem :) There is no need for much hassle if such a simple temporary fix works :)

[Devising]

The theme worked once i added the subdomain to it.
www.

[Melting Tires]

Just sayin, all I did was add hackforums to adblocker plus and all my issues went away.
(Add as in allow it)

[Melting Tires]

Did you at any point in time, add HF to the block list (even if by accident?).

-Viral.

Pretty sure it was defaulted as Ad block was on.
All I know is I logged on a couple days ago, noticed the css wasn't loading properly and adblocker was the first thing that I checked. It worked. I moved on and haven't thought about it until now.

[Chief Keef SOSA]

Surprising this worked for me! Thanks dude.

[Ihatewindows]

Only fix for me is clicking the header, which reloads it fine afterwords.

For me that seems to work...sometimes. And it only happens for me on the Home page. Another glitch that appears that may/may not be related is images just do not show up. At all. Refreshing the page makes it worse!! 😟
