Dog-Slow forum

I use Tapatalk for mobile use. Can be found in the Google Play store for free. My internet is still down. Once it comes back up I will look to see if there are any problems or things I can do to speed up the site.

I don't have problems either, even when browsing on mobile data, but large portions of the forum are loaded straight from my computer (an irregular user won't have so much of the forum cached). There are some things that I can do to speed it up for those users. If globe gets their guys out here to fix my internet today I will make those changes.

I have disabled some non-essential mods to the forum in hopes that it would speed up the forum for you (mainly disabled the ones that were loading some avatars in unnecessary places). Let me know if there were any improvements.

After the changes:



Not much of a change but you can see that the site is scoring an 80% on the speed test with the Google Webmaster Tools. (It is hard to get it any higher than that because the forum software is coded by a private company.....I can't control a lot of the things that Google says could be changed to improve speed.)

The mobile is 75/100:


Other than adding a mobile skin there isn't much I can do about this either. If you are using a cellphone to access the forum and would really prefer not to use Tapatalk I can add a mobile theme for you (I'm not sure if that would help any at all but it really isn't much of a problem to add to the theme list...though I can't promise that I will remember to keep it updated).

 

Wait.....I see that one of my databases has some errors and has crashed. This might be causing some forum to lag as well. Let me see if I can repair that.
