If you’re not a registered user, you need to set the new cookie. If you are a registered user, you may need to have your account activated before you set the cookie. Once you have set the cookie, approximately once a month you have to refresh it. That part’s easy. You go to the root address, https://www.adult-fanfiction.org and click ‘I’m over 18’. I just had to do this yesterday, myself. Now, to set the cookie, here is what you need to do. First thing, before you proceed. DO NOT use anonymous browsing for this part. You can go back to it afterwards. No matter WHICH browser, you must clear cache and cookies for ALL TIME. If you are using Apple products, you must clear cache in all your devices as the products link together. After doing the clear, close and restart your browser. Finally, you need to force refresh. (Press Ctrl+F5) Be sure to do this from the main page: https://www.adult-fanfiction.org That should fix the issues. You should be able to proceed once you do that. If you’re getting an error about activation, go to the register link and select the drop down option of “resend activation”. Remember, major software changes generally do require this sort of action. If, after all this, you’re still experiencing issues with the age verification, in Chrome/Edge, press F12 to access the console. You’ll see the exact error being generated. Let us know what it is. If you are experiencing bugs, please post them to the bug tracker. What we will need from you are specific steps you took to get the error, and screen shots if you are able. This will help in getting everything fixed, if there are bugs.

Perhaps you should learn to read and follow the directions given countless times, which has worked for the users who asked what to do.

From what I can tell, you need to refresh the cookie, as it looks like you already set it last month. To do that go to https://www.adult-fanfiction.org and click on the “I’m 18” button. The refresh only works from the root address at this point.

You need to set the new cookie. There is a one time procedure to follow, and the cookie will be set. You can proceed from there.

Using incognito mode and VPNs are a big part of your issue. We tell everyone that for a one time setting of the cookie, you cannot mask your access, use vpn, use incognito mode. That will make your attempts fail.

There was no data loss with the upgrade. To expound on what BronxWench mentioned, that when a user decides to scrub themselves, we comply with their wishes. There are many reasons for someone wanting to do this. Often, where I’ve seen things disappear except for on, for example, the internet archive; it’s because the user either made a huge life change and wishes to leave this all behind, or was published.

That’s something @manta2g needs to look at to implement.

I’ve tried this with multiple tags and across different archives. I’m unable to replicate. I expect as BronxWench said, you need to clear your cache.
