Do pages time out for you? Need to refresh/reload?

Helen · 07-17-21, 10:09 PM

Yes, New Posts works now without the database error, but the whole site is still frustrating me as USUALLY, clicking to go to a new page times out & I have to either reload or refresh, and usually need to do that several times before the page appears. Other sites are fine - click & it's there, but VF is the only site that I have this problem with, so I'm assuming it's not an issue at my end.

Anyone else having this issue?

FWIW, I have not been having this problem.

I haven't been either. I use Microsoft Edge on my laptop and DuckDuckGo on my phone, if that makes any difference.

Helen - I, too, have had pages not load in properly and have had to reload them. Usually it only takes once. I use FireFox for Mac.

If I click on a link, and leave the site and then come back, I'm usually timed out. I'm using Safari for Mac.

Ugh - took 3x reload, each taking about a minute with death-circle.

Thanks for the replies.
I'm on a Mac, so shall see how Safari goes.
.......

Oh! Had it opening in another window, and just popped up with

Safari Can't Open the Page
"forum.videofitness.com" because the server where this page is located isn't responding.

- refresh worked, but took over a minute.

Logged in - now also taking ages.
