It worked no problem until about a month ago and now it wont work??

I try in vain to connect from MFP but when I click to connect it sends me to a blank page.
Tried a variety of ways..............

1 - use an existing post from
My Home --> News Feed
Click Hyperlink Garmin Connect
brings up url https://www.myfitnesspal.com/apps/show/120
Click Connect
get a blank page from Garmin -->https://connect.garmin.com/modern/mfp

2 - From app page
Click Garmin Connect
get same blank page from Garmin --> https://connect.garmin.com/modern/mfp

Food data passes back from MFP to Garmin Connect

Please can someone advise whats going on and how to fix this?

Cheers
Nicky

    Break all links from MFP & GC and double check from both apps (on GC, go to the calories page, its kidden away on there somewhere as a small hyperlink).

    Actually, i ended up doing it differently, because i was getting fed up of having to hit Sync to update calories in GC. (took about a day for that to annoy me). And because i was a user of Endomondo for quite a few years before i got Garmin.
    So now, my GC is updated from my device. GC then updates Endomondo and Strava. (i have mfp friends on endomondo, and i have work triathlon team on strava). Endomondo then syncs with MFP. Then i just dont worry about getting calories into GC, and i know that my exercise is logging to MFP just fine. As an added extra, GC also updates Training Peaks, and MFP sends calorie info to Training Peaks.

    I've been having a lot of trouble with the two syncing as of late. One day it said I had 42k steps...uh no. Yesterday it wasn't recognizing any steps nor was it syncing my calories burned or eaten, I had to go to the garmin website to get it to sync. *sigh*

    Usually I just go into my Garmin App on my phone and sync my steps and then if I update/refresh the calories it used to sync to MFP properly.
