HTF Add-On Update September 18th at 8AM CT - Post Any Issues Here! (1 Viewer)

[andrew]

Thanks for the heads up - I'm having our server guys check and see if they can see the issue there and find a cause.

Whatever optimization was done this morning seems to have been a very beneficial move for site speediness. It appears to be back to normal - at least at work but I'd expect it to be just as snappy at home tonight.

 

[andrew]

Awesome to hear - it was mainly to test out and speed and decipher exactly what could be causing delays but they did find an add-on that was adding some load time for all threads that was not necessary any longer (due to the last Xenforo update) and disabled it. That is probably to thank for the little speed boost.

Just to update - the speed was also back to normal at home as well (I didn't expect otherwise so...). It was so "normal" that I really didn't notice until I got the "Like alert" from you on my prior post which reminded me I was going to check there, too!

I know this is off-topic. But I just wanted to ask people if they are having any issues right now opening up any of my Weekly RoundUps in the "Bargain & Deals" forum?

Because I am!

Same issue here. I get the same error message when trying to access the new review of Fade-In.

I've not used them before but did because of your post. I get *this* for any I attempt to open:

Yes, same here. Seems to be an issue with that "extra" system as it seems to also be affecting the review threads that are posted in a similar format.

 

[andrew]

How are we looking now? There was an issue with the firewall, maybe an auto software update was installed that didn't play nicely, but it looks like it should be all fixed.

 

[BobO'Link]

Working now for me.

 

[bujaki]

And me.

 

[Malcolm R]

Same. Looks good from here.

 

[Mike Frezon]

Thanks everyone for chiming in and helping out!

Much appreciated.

This is what I typically see ever since the site update as soon as I click on the Alert icon... I'm using Chrome on Windoze 10 PC.

Still the same issue after ~6 months... and I still keep missing some alerts as a result, especially for relatively high traffic threads that stop alerting me after the first miss each time (before I remember/realize to check whichever such thread, which resets the alerting) -- it's not even clear if I actually miss at least some of those alerts (due to not trying quite hard enough myself... as if this is supposed to be work, not hobby/fun) or whether they simply don't show up at all in my notifications...

Pretty annoying when I end up missing something that needed timely reading/checking...

@ManW_TheUncool I had no idea that was still an issue - it's not something impacting everyone. I've asked out dev guys to take a look and see if they can pinpoint why only a small portion of users would have issues with the alerts or what may be causing it months later. I will get back to you once they let me know as well.
