Chorrol Site struggling to load pages?, Is anyone else having this issue? Options

[mALX]

For three days now, I can't get the PM page to load in a full page. It is only loading a little at a time; and you have to scroll down to get the lower sections of the page; but then the upper sections all disappear and all I see is the brown backdrop.

It is happening every time on the PM page; (but not sure if it is doing it anywhere else on this site).

I am not having trouble with any other sites; just this one. Anyone else noticing this?

I took a quick look at the page source for the PM list and a regular page, and they appear to use the same scripts and style sheets. I'd thought that maybe a PM-specific script was causing issues, but there doesn't seem to be one.

The symptoms you describe do match up to a problem downloading a script, because of where they are in the sequence of of the content. So I was ready to blame a script-blocker add-on to your browser, until I found all the same scripts on the other pages. It's a mystery, still.

Performance could be improved by moving some scripts to the bottom of the source page, if they're only there to handle post-load events, but you'd only do that if there was a general problem, and this site is usually very fast and efficient.

But one thought did cross my mind. When I look at the PM list, it shows me small numbers for the message counts. I have only 197 of my 50,000 allotment in use. If you have a figure at the other end of the scale, and it has to go count them each time, ...

I also usually have a very fast load, this just started a few days ago = and I also wondered if deleting some of my mail might fix the issue. I will try clearing out some of the backlog.

Thank you everyone for your help!

OH! and - just to clarify = it is not the page full of all the PM's listed that is slow to load; that one is loading just fine. It is when you choose to read any one of the PM's and click on it = opening up the PM itself is the page that is so slow.
