iMore Site Populating Slowly & Running Rough

[TLD1]

What is the deal with this board loading, populating and flowing smoothly? I've been around Mobile Nation a long time, most particularly on the CrackBerry site...and although CB runs perfectly and populates quickly with no jerkiness each time I visit on my PC, iPad or iPhone...the iMore site looks almost second-class in the way it performs. I mean, it takes forever for it to load on my iPhone...which should be it's forte!

The iPhone is the number one selling smartphone in the world. It beats Android, and Windows...and absolutely slaughters BlackBerry...so why is the CrackBerry site the "flagship"?

I like this site, the "mood" and the family. But, unless the site is run by Kevin M. from CrackBerry...it needs a total revamping. I know I'm not the only one to complain about this.

I haven't noticed anything on my iPhone 5. I use the TapaTalk app. Come to think of it, the online site in Safari is a bit buggy. I just don't go there much.

No issues here either,


clear history and cache.

If you can share more details with me I'd be happy to check into this for you! What device/browser are you using? Are you using the full site, the mobile site, or one of our apps? Is it simply load time that is dragging you down? Have you noticed what the load is hanging on?

The more details the better. If easier for you, please contact me via email (my address is below).

Talk soon!

The forums are running excruciatingly slow over the past 20-30 minutes.

Feel free to shoot me a note direct next time you experience this. Chances are it was just a server blip.

I had to give up accessing the site on my iPad2 and now that I have an iPad Air I see no improvement.
Anyone else?
Good Luck

@TurboTiger - email me the details. That doesn't sound good. Let me know wait times, OS and browser details, etc. Also let me know which site you're trying to load (full desktop site or mobile).

No problem at all. Received on my end... thanks for sending!

For several days, iMore blog articles crash and won't reload in Safari on my iMac. Not all of the articles, just a few random ones. Anyone else experience this?

 

[James Falconer]

Nothing on my end... but if you're able to pinpoint the issue (if it persists) please let me know!

Is it just the blogs or are the forums crashing your browser too?

 

[emjayess]

I don't visit the forums much, so nothing here yet. I think the blog articles that crash are those I've commented in. When I get a notice of a reply in my email inbox, I click the link, but the browser crashes. However, when I try to just open iMore in Safari the normal way and browse to the article, it still crashes. Go figure.

We've had a couple of reports of this with Safari. Our tech team will check into it. Thanks for reporting!

This seems similar to the issues I've seen on CB. I never thought before to mention that I have seen this Mobile Nations wide, which probably makes sense.

I’ve noticed this issue off and on for a while. The New Posts button presents a screen of new, unread messages. The page footer (first image) shows 1 to 98 of 125 messages, and the page shows 1 of 2, but when I click on the 2nd page link, I get this screen (2nd image) - Sorry No Matches. Where are messages 99-125?

@HankAZ - Thanks for reporting. Received a report of the same on Windows Central this morning. Tech will take a look!

I am still seeing this issue - seems like it’s that way every morning. This morning, it reported 1 to 95 of 163, yet the second page was completely empty, just as shown above. Any update?
