I've finally got a step further and have entered details into an order form.
The 1884 will I want to order has no folio no. and the box you click on says the following:

"A Folio Number must be entered into the ‘Folio Number’ text box wherever available (excluding any letters). However, some results may not have an associated Folio Number. If there is no number present then this field can be left blank. Please note that Folio Number positions and format do vary. You may find the Folio Number is hand written next to the relevant entry."

I've tried to add the will to my basket but get "Folio number is required" in red!

*sighs* You would think they would have made it an improvement on the old version of the site, not worse.

In desperation I typed "None" and lo and behold it took me to the next page saying the item was in my basket.

Hopefully they are fixing some of the problems.

It's still down this morning. I want to complete my order today, so I hope it is up and running soon.

I can't access it. There is a link to ordering by post.

I hope I can still get in as I've had items in my cart for a while and I wont remember them all.

The website is active again but I can't sign in so I tried to reset my password but no e-mail has come through.

Well, it's now searching by date of death, and as it allows easy first name searching, it is an improvement.

Do you mean it is now fully indexed for pre-1993 (or whatever date it was), Phoenix?
