can you place any forum issues in here after the rebuild

[warren]

hows it been today, i still need to tweak certain settings this is on a unix box not windows

 

[mw0njm.]

at my end ok thanks Warren

 

[warren]

id set it to use FAR too much memory so it was running out, i think ive tuned it now

 

[warren]

that was me just btw i rebooted the forum (it wasn't an error)

 

[pjmburns]

Thanks Warren. I don't understand (and probably don't need to) the technicalities. However are we on the new server or can we expect more disruption in the near future (apart from odd tweaks) ?

 

[warren]

we are hence all the tweaking!

I've been making sure we are getting the best out of it

 

[pjmburns]

Thanks Warren- good to know.

The format of the main home page (only) seems to have grossly changed and is almost unreadable. I take it that will be altered

 

[warren]

Snap. It just happened now. As soon as I pressed back everything worked. I am on my phone so can't do a screen shot. If it happens when I am on my laptop I will take a pic.

 

[mikejee]

I get it as well sometimes. but , as you say, try again and it goes away

 

[Richard Dye]

Phone, iPad and computer all working fine!

Thank you…

 

[RRJ]

All good here too thanks.

I wonder if the 223 robots online are enjoying the forum.

Warren.
Have you been tinkering with the site again?
Kept getting that "cloudflare" message again.
Do you have any idea when we will be a settled site again?

The Cloudfire message seems to make it clear that the problem is not a cache problem at our end

For what it is worth - and maybe that is nothing at all - another web site using Zen Foro has problems with slow loading and other issues for a week now,

I just typed a pm. Clicked on save and got cloudflare error. Refreshed page and was able to save post.

All good here too thanks.

The other forum I mentioned blamed their issues on the high number of SPAM bots.
