Chris.
At home I am all Apple, but my work laptop is Windows 10 and I can post no problem.... Can't see some pictures, but can see others, so I assume that there is a setting I need to change but too lazy to look for it
You have some good points there Carl in your first paragraph, especially the size of images for directly embedding, although IMHO 5mb is still fairly large. I resize my photo's to around 200kb before posting.VTRDark wrote: ↑Mon Jun 04, 2018 10:21 pm The forum has been slow and sluggish for while, I think since the last PHP update, but it could also be folk attaching images, not linking I mean directly embedding, depending on how many folk do that. There should be a 5mb limit put on them along with a cron script setup so it automatically deletes the oldest images when the images on the forum space fills to a preset level. We only have so much hosting space and bandwidth. The same should be done for older posts but the problem here is that there is still very valid and useful tech info so to just delete posts/threads after so many years would be careless. It needs manually doing, moderating by going through manually archiving and eventually deleting the rubbish and keeping the good stuff.
Also I've noticed there's sometimes a huge pause when submitting a post to the point where sometimes one may think it hasn't posted so submit again which ends with a duplicate (double) post in the thread. I'v'e had it where it looks like the page load has timed out, so I duplicate the tab and reload the thread and there it is, the post I just submitted. Go back to the other tab and my post is still sitting there looking like it's still processing.
Excellent Al, thanks for taking the time to do that
