Private Messages struggle

Post by my8950 »

Is anyone else having a tough time going to the private messages panel and seeing or sending messages?
When I try, it hangs for 10-15 minutes, sometimes opens, sometimes quits.
If I try to reply to a message, same things, mostly hangs and then just says can't access.
Same at home and when I am at office, 2 different laptops.
I can access the forums pages fine, reply, post, anything it seems.

I just checked my PMs and I can't duplicate the issue. It's almost instantaneous for me.

The whole site seems to work except those links in the notifications tab, private messages and user control panel. It tries to load until it just times out and I get site can't be reached message. I'm using a chromebook.

The struggle is real. Just tried now to access Private messages via a couple different routes and all of them time out....

This site can’t be reached
The connection was reset.


Mark, I'm guessing this is somehow related to the most recent upgrade, but I'm guessing that only due to the timing.

I thought I was going to duplicate the issue just now, but after a long delay it brought up the page for me. Reloading the PM page after it loaded the first time was quick.

I'll dig into this more when I have time, but unfortunately I have a pressing family matter going on right now and just can't do it.

Nope, family is more important in my opinion. But Thanks for doing what you do...

Site is working pretty good really. I have been able to click profile and search users posts. User control panel and private messages link wasn't doing anything but today that seems to be working as well. Thanks Mark :cheers
