Form Submission Error Fixed

We recently identified and resolved a technical issue on BlountTN.net that was preventing some of our online forms from submitting correctly.

What Happened?

Several users reported receiving a nonce_failed error message when trying to submit business suggestions or contact requests. In web development, a “nonce” (a “number used once”) is a security measure used to verify that the person submitting a form is a legitimate user and not a malicious bot.

A technical glitch caused these security tokens to expire or mismatch, which led the website to block the submissions entirely to protect the site’s integrity.

The Resolution

Our team has implemented a fix to reset and synchronize these security protocols. All forms across the site are now fully operational. You can once again use our platform to:

• Submit Business Suggestions: Nominate your favorite local spots for our “Local Legends” program.
• Contact Us: Reach out with general inquiries or feedback.
• Community Updates: Share news and events happening around Blount County.

We take the “written record” of our community’s input seriously, and we apologize for any inconvenience this brief disruption may have caused. If you attempted to send us a message over the last few days and didn’t receive a confirmation, please feel free to resubmit it now.
