@Velocio I'm getting error messages when I try and post using Chrome with the PIA add-on enabled

It comes up with

Forbidden (403)
CSRF verification failed. Request aborted.
You are seeing this message because this HTTPS site requires a 'Referer header' to be sent by your Web browser, but none was sent. This header is required for security reasons, to ensure that your browser is not being hijacked by third parties.
If you have configured your browser to disable 'Referer' headers, please re-enable them, at least for this site, or for HTTPS connections, or for 'same-origin' requests.

PIA is lying. No referer header is required. Not sure why they think it is.

I shall do a test tomorrow morning on my other computer (the one with PIA on... this one is a media PC and isn't VPN'd).

Cheers. Connecting to PIA for the system works fine for posting, it just appears to be the Chrome add-in that causes the problem (same error on Win10 and Chromebook so OS doesn't seem to be an issue).
