ASF Site Performance

[noirua]

My best guess is because you are probably replying to Miner's post within the quote tags of his post. It occasionally happens.

The minimum length of a post is 3 characters. If your reply is 231 characters then it should be accepted. The only reason for it not to be accepted is if the software is not recognising your post as being 231 characters of a reply to Miner's post.

I recommend that you clear your post reply box of any previous drafts and reply to Miner's post again, ensuring that your reply commences after the end of the quote tags in his post.

I hope that helps.

Thanks Joe, by 2030 I should get the hang of all this.

Any reports of rendering issues in Chrome lately? For the last few days, I've struggled get ASF loading correctly in Chrome. It looks like a very basic stripped down html page. Now it could be a browser extension but its happening in Incognito mode.
I cleared cache etc. Hasnt resolved it. ASF loads perfectly fine in Edge browser, so it does seem to be Chrome specific. Will see if I can try this on another laptop this weekend. Im sure it must be something on my side.

Oh thanks. Not just me then.

I had same problem yesterday on 3 different devices at different times. Seems to be working today with no issues here.

I got thrown off the site earlier today with a message saying it wasn't a 'safe' site. When I attempt to post it can take a minute or so to actually move into the thread. This is intermittent and has been happening for a couple of weeks, this may be on my end of course. I am on Firefox.

I am also having trouble with the format going from normal, to a HTML stripped down version, thought it may be connection speed but other sites are o.k.
ASF has been slow to load for quite some time. IMO

 

[Zaxon]

Based on what I observed, it looked like the CSS files for some of the pages weren't being loaded. The html content was there, but not the formatting. Either they went missing, or the forum theme that pointed to them had an error. Everything looks fine now though.

In addition, I've noticed the site has been quite slow at times. My connection is fast for everything else, so something is going on with ASF's server.

Yes and by the way. My issue is specific to a desktop site. Loading on smartphone using Chrome seems to work A-OK for me.

 

[explod]

Yes having the same problems. Interesting that it began about when the election was called. All my other sites have remained perfect.

A hacker in my view. Too much discussion on climate change probably.

 

[Zaxon]

OK. I have done some research. There is a style selector at the bottom of each page. With "fixed", I'm getting CSS layout missing. I changed it to "fluid". Straight away all the layout corrects itself. Currently, I can cause/uncause the error by toggling the style.

Fixed:
Fluid:

These screen prints were taken straight after each other.

Hopefully, that should give @Joe Blow enough to go on.

[So_Cynical]

Ah the fluid thing fixed it - Chrome here.

 

[peter2]

@Zaxon Thanks for the fix. I'm "fluid".

 

[cynic]

Was struggling until recently. Seems A OK now.

 

[peter2]

@Zaxon Thanks for the fix. I'm fluid.

I just came to the thread to ask the same question.

Looks like something from the days of Windows 3.1 which was a rather long time ago.

Problem has been intermittent but it seems OK at the moment.

You're a legend, never a dull moment on ASF.

My Chrome was out of order too, same as win 3.1. Then I followed switching to the fluid view and the recent posts tab has moved. Something is wrong as this has never happened with chrome before but at least it is view-able now.

Now it's coming up with extra uninvited smileys.
