leon263 0 Posted August 31, 2014 (edited) I've found over the last couple of weeks that I'm having to regularly 'recover' web pages when the site freezes for no apparent reason .......... not happening on any other frequently visited forums. Anyone else having similar problems or is it just me? Edited August 31, 2014 by leon263 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted September 1, 2014 Which browser do you use? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted September 1, 2014 Can't say I've seen anything like this, despite accessing the site from a variety of browsers in several locations on different operating systems too! I access the site using Safari on OSX, Firefox on Windows 8.1 and on some Android devices too and it's been business as usual for a while! :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted September 1, 2014 Has been a bit strange on my phone since the end of last week, all the text not displayed properly, so haven't been able to use forum much at weekend. I did assume something was up with the forum. Seems fine now i'm on a proper pc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted September 1, 2014 I made some changes to the site on Saturday, so more interested in experience from Sunday onwards... As for mobile, use Tapatalk.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted September 1, 2014 I gave up on tapatalk over a year back, was so many times it didn't work and then i would come back and it had thought i'd read all the posts on last visit so showed me no new posts. Meaning i had to check each section of the site for new posts. Will try and delete cookies etc on my phone and see if that helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted September 10, 2014 Guys, throw me a frickin' bone, here. What phone? What browser? If you install Chrome, does it to do the same? Which part of the site? Screenshot? Currently, you're akin to walking into a garage and saying "Car no go." and beating your chest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted September 10, 2014 Galaxy S3 Always used Chrome, Have tried on the standard "internet" it comes with and does the same. Its usually the "new posts" sections that does it, i normally come to site and just click "new posts" and get a page showing the threads, it will display fine but after a few seconds its goes all strange and jumbled. Will try and get a screenshot. Sorry for the vagueness to begin with :lol: Reminds me of the IT crowd sketch.

Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted September 11, 2014 Does it still do it if you browse the site via this link: http://direct.the-corrado.net/search.php?do=getnew&contenttype=vBForum_Post Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fla 9 Posted September 12, 2014 Andi, the forum freezes on both my tablet (Nexus 7) and phone (Galaxy S3). Then within about 2 seconds the text skews so you only have half a line to view, whilst it remains frozen. It will stay like this for about 10 seconds after which i can use it again. This is using Chrome. I don't use IE at all now. Its fine on the laptop however. thanks for your help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

easypops 8 Posted September 12, 2014 It has been a bit slower recently for me too. When the page loads is seems to be off to the left before correcting itself, no jumbled text though, just hangs between pages. iPhone 5 iPad both on safari Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted September 12, 2014 Same as easypops but on Sony Xperia, ipad and kindle. Also extremely slow loading images. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted September 13, 2014 Well, no-one has tried my suggestion above... *sigh* But how is it now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted September 13, 2014 Sorry Andi, just seen that post. No, the link above if accessed via that is very quick and exhibits none of the problems I usually occur. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted September 14, 2014 Right, since it seems it's only those browsing from phones having issues, I've just finished the mobile version of the site. Your phone browser should be automatically detected and it will show the mobile style instead of the desktop one. If you get stuck on the wrong one, or need the Desktop one, or for some reason want the browse the mobile one on your PC, you can use the drop-down menu in the far bottom left of the page to manually change the style. Feedback welcome! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
easypops 8 Posted September 14, 2014 Just logged on and saw the mobile site, thought it was my phone playing up lol, found the full site button and everything went back to normal. All previous issues seem to be away too. I'll look again at mobile site later . Great work as always, much appreciated :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fla 9 Posted September 14, 2014 thanks Andi, seems to be fine on the phone now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
