I don't know if anyone else has been experiencing this, but sometimes when I perform a forum search indirectly, such as by using the Get Posts feature, or "Find more posts by this user" I am told that I would have to wait for 30s before performing a search, even if I haven't done one in the last few hours, or after just logging in.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Its working fine for me. I have heard some people in other threads since the upgrade saying that the buttons at the top seem to double click for them.
 
When I click on 'get posts' then 'new posts', I get the 30 second wait period also.

Sometimes it "double-clicks" sometimes it doesn't. What browser are you using, by the way? I'm using IE7, though I don't know if the browsers make any difference.
 
I'm IE7 too.
 
Using Firefox 2.0, and I don't get the wait message unless it's been <30 seconds since my last try.
