balo Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 I'm posting this from my tablet , it works but it took about 40 seconds to connect to the server. After that it seems to be working fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Doctor Posted September 9, 2016 Author Share Posted September 9, 2016 @balo - Great news. @Caps - Yes this is where invision are now looking through 500MB of slow log queries as they and amazon have ruled out our IOPS and RDS tuning. They have asked me to patch still the streams as I made the choice to limit the search upto a maximum of 360 days at the moment, hence why it is working.

TD Thanks for the reply TD But its not any particular thing for me, it just seems to be the whole forum for me, whether I am searching, trying to look at a page, replying, clicking like etc. Even loading the forum from the start seems to take forever. It was fine before 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Doctor Posted September 9, 2016 Author Share Posted September 9, 2016 @Caps - It will get better we are constantly tuning the system trying to get it back to normal speed, we are facing issues like other forums running the software at the moment. Frustrating for everyone at the moment, especially last week it seemed to behave then this week back to RDS locks and we froze all change work in regards to tuning.

If its approved. TD TD, you need approval to fix something that is obviously broken? That sound like the oil industry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Doctor Posted September 9, 2016 Author Share Posted September 9, 2016 Ha ha, yeah its not exactly a small site and to keep taking it down for 3-4 hours whilst patching isnt the best. TD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetsetBkk Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 @Tech Doctor FYI: It is currently taking about 28 seconds for "content I posted in" results to appear (Firefox on Windows, ADSL). (Better than never, of course ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Better than never, of course ) @Tech Doctor I agree with the sentiment posted by @JetsetBkk Compared to my post 1033 above, "Content I posted in" is improving. It takes about 10 seconds whilst all the other activity streams take about 2 seconds (Chrome on Win 10 ADSL) Site feels more responsive today too.

Oxx Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 What's with the mouseover message "Enter your text; hold ctrl and right click for more options" for the textarea where one enters postings (where I'm typing now)? Ctrl-right click does nothing for me, other than bring up the standard Chrome right click options (Undo, Paste, etc.). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using a PC running Linux Mint LMDE + Cinnamon with Google Chrome as the browser. Out of curiosity, what is ctrl-right click supposed to do? Is it something really exciting that I'm missing out on? Or is it simply mundane? Edited September 10, 2016 by Oxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really annoying that stuff long previously quoted (but eventually not posted) pops up in new replies and is really irksome to get rid of.

transam Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Not sure why TVF wants to show 'likes' for a member over posts when there is no 'dis-like' , reckon that is a bad move... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoiBiker Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 If I had so few likes per post, I wouldn't want it advertised either. The good doctor has a surprisingly healthy ratio, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure Mr Bernoulli would be very impressed I keep giving him likes, but it never rolls over to zero. Very disappointing.

thaibeachlovers Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Sometimes the banner ad obscures my user name. Can't click on content then. I was just checking, so don't know if my content is working yet. That is the most annoying effect of this upgrade, as I need my content to avoid having to look through pages and pages of threads.

MJCM Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 (edited) My Content I posted in is working http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/discover/28/ That the banner obscures your view is maybe because you are Zoomed in to far, just use Ctrl plus UP Scroll with the wheel on your Mouse to Zoom Out.

Getting there....... @Tech Doctor FYI - all activity streams now loading in a reasonable time frame although "Content I posted in" is a little slower than the others - FYI it takes about 4 seconds, all the others about 2 seconds I just closed the browser, ran CCleaner and confirmed it by switching between streams in multiple tabs.....trying hard to break it as we testers do!

Can you let me know your screen resolution so i can check the banners against that size, it might be the responsive banner thresholds. TD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TD I can't believe that we have come down to minutiae like this. the new site is a mess - it seems to have been introduced on a hope and a prayer........it reminds me of buying a British Motorbike back in the sixties...... any other product that came out with this many faults hiccoughs and glitches would be immediately sent back to the manufacturer and a law suit would follow. the site is jerky, unresponsive poorly laid out and things like the classifieds have bee replaced (eventually!) with a screen saying "coming soon". THis is not down to "teething problems" - I don't think I've ever come across a revamped site that has been so utterly flawed. Why don't you just scrap this and start with a completely different site - you have been sold a pup here without a doubt.

balo Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Still not possible to browse and read any of the forums on the Android app from my tablet. So its basically useless, I can only read the posts I participated in and unread posts. If I want to go into any local forum it just starts loading and nothing happens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
