Forum keeps freezing.

[toetapping]

Just received a message from a member.

All web sites are ok except. nicetomeet.proboards.com/

She has windows XP and uses Google Chrome.

When she is on my website computer keeps freezing when she tries to write a message.

Hi, toetapping.

Can you try creating a new, default theme on your forum with no customizations and asking them to switch to that? If they still experience freezing, can you try disabling plugins on that particular theme via the Edit button in Plugins > Manage?

Let me know what you find out.

I have disenabled my sidebar Redux Brian and members aren't having the problem.

Could you have a look at it for me please as I like the plug in very much.

Your version of the plugin is only composed of one Javascript function (that runs only once) and HTML. Nothing in my plugin can be optimized any further, but shouldn't be affecting your forum at all since the majority of it is just HTML. I tried viewing the forum with and without the plugin and it performed the same regardless of whether or not the plugin was enabled.

The only theme I experience performance impacts on is your WildRoses theme. Most of your other themes scroll smoothly and do not freeze for me. Going into my browser's developer console and swapping your CSS file with a default CSS file remedies any freezing and stuttering I experience, meaning there is a problem with that particular theme's CSS.

Brian Hi Brian I read your post and I designed that Wild Roses theme. could you tell me what is wrong with the CSS so I can correct it. I am using it and a another board I administer also is using it and we have not experienced any problems but I don't want members having difficulty with it.

Brian, Gail took wild roses off and it is working fine.

Hope you can help Gail as it is a lovely theme an would love to put it back on again.

Thanks once again Brian.

I don't know the particulars. All I know is that using an alternative CSS file worked fine. Sorry I can't be of much more help.
