Not really Steve, thank you.  If you could just check the error log for me.

Did you look at the error log here on OFF. strange one to be honest.

[Skhilled]

No errors.

Yes, when you see errors that don't make sense, a combination of things, it is usually mod conflicts.

Thanks.  It is starting to sound likely.  Bloc is looking into it for us, so let's see what he finds.

This site is running very slowly on any page that the shout (might be another block on the left side) is on. If you go into the admin or somewhere that does not show it the site seems to load much faster. It does not do it on my site. At first I thought it was the marquee scrolling but I added it to my site and it doe snot do it there. So, it is something else.

But looking at the shoutbox settings I did find an old setting in there. So, there is probably old code from it and possibly other mods left here. See the image below.

Fetching previews are extremely slow here so old left-over code may be an issue here at this site.

Thanks again Steve,  hadn't noticed that setting sitting there until you pointed it out. Now I'm worried that Ken has some rogue code / files sitting on the server. 

We need to check on how TP was installed. It should have been completely un-installed before installing the new zip.

Hell, Matt hasn't been around in years!  :funny:

I've got a feeling he just did an auto-uninstall and then reinstalled new versions. I think a "site refresh" is in order. That is what I call it when you remove everything, upload the smf upgrade package and reinstall your themes then your mods. It helps to get rid of any rogue code sitting around. I do it once or twice per year on my sites, if I've been adding/removing things.

My goodness! I'm out for most of the day and miss out on all the excitement! 

You guys may be right about bad or rogue code and the need to load up a fresh set of files.

I hadn't noticed any slow load on the pages... don't know what that might be, but it needs to be fixed if possible.

On this latest TP install I first uninstalled and deleted the previous version before loading up this one.

The site is much faster today so it may have been server issues. But fetching preview is still extremely slow or not working.

@Mick, still no errors on the test site.
