Has anyone been experiencing slow loading/slow navigation or other issues on the forum?

I've been having delays for several days now. It doesn't matter whether I'm using Internet Explorer or Firefox, and this is the only place I've been having trouble. If it's just me, I'll dig a little deeper into my machine. If it's a forum issue, I'll let the webmaster know.

Thanks,

Steve S

One day I couldn't even get on the forum, I could get to the store, the videos, wtat site.
I could not log onto the forum, kept saying 404 site not found.
Is that what your meaning?

The other day I couldn't access the videos, but that was about it. I use Google Chrome.

Yes - recently at times the forum has been slow responding to pages & one day last week it was not available where I am using my preferred Firefox - seems OK today - just assumed it was a minor glitch.

I know nothing about tapatalk... I like my plain ol' stupid phone.

Several here use it regularly, though, so some advice should pop up soon.

It seems my "slow" issues were neither my computer nor the forum, but some local node in the 'net... Everything's back to normal today without any intervention from me or the admins.

I find it slow to load also and I haven't been able to access the videos from the forum site for a week now.
Also email notice of Jody's last week's video on journals did not happen either.

You should be able to hit the new topic button once you've selected a discussion forum I.e. "general shop talk". Other than that, you seem to be posting just fine since your posts are coming through tapatalk.

I'll look into the load times. More than likely an issue with our host that will resolve on its own soon. Thanks for the feedback guys!

First time in two weeks everything has gone smoothly. I've done nothing here. Must be an issue with a local server, and probably based on activity.

At least I can catch up without beating my head on the keyboard.
