Exploreoz site slow loading

Ditto, takes 1 to 1 1/2 min to load using Chrome, and sometimes hangs.

Good so it is just not me,I have always found it a bit slow but I think it is worse now, it never used to hang before but it does so every visit now

I have tried the mobile version as well but that does not work very well either

Thanks for the reply Kerry, I have checked and my iPad is up to date, assume that would also mean the safari browser is up to date as well?

I am on fixed wireless NBN and usually the site load is almost instantaneous. However sometimes it slows way down but comes good a little while later. I don't think a software upgrade issue is the problem. Sometimes I think David is 'fiddling' and it goes right off, ie no service. I have given up trying to log occurrence times. I must amit it is a fair bit better than it was awhile ago, I almost gave it away completely.

I forgot to mention, the last lot of 'slowness' was while David and family were 'swanning' around Maralinga. To his credit though I notice in one of his blogs reference to fixing an issue from the middle of the Nullarbor. Also a couple of the drop outs were after he returned, so was probably rectifying some site issues.
This may appear as though I am on the site for most of the day but I think I am just unlucky to get on when there is a glitch.

Ok Alby I'm hearing you! On my wife's iPad at the moment and it can load lots of things slowly at the moment. EO is opening slower than normal too


I have just gone into

settings>safari>advanced(very bottom of page)>website data

I found around 600 listings of which I cleared all (she's gonna kill me for this I reckon)

Went back to settings>safari>privacy (2nd from top) and cleared cookies and data as well as history.

(I'm in real strife now...)

Everything moving much faster. EO definitely loading faster (but not instant) If your ipad is updated and you have all your passwords etc then it seems like it may solve most of your issues.
Hope this helps

Ha! True Rod that happens ... and part of the sites uniqueness is the fact that everybody can update sections of the site - forumites, shoppers in the shop, bloggers, people adding trek notes, road conditions updates, EOtrackme, places, treks, classifieds, advertisers, etc etc many segments are being constantly updated by users of the site.


I remember a few years ago David did a major site update and went "swanning around the bush" as you put it and one night the forum and blogs took a dive because an error somebody made in their blog (a miraculous co-incidence that would make murphy proud) - managed to imitate some critical code in the system when they uploaded their blog. As usual he was contactable and sorted it straight away - that vulnerability had been addressed long ago

I'll have to leave it to him if there are any other issues

Thanks for the feedback and please be careful if you do clear histories and cookies make sure you have all your passwords and are not working on your tax or something like that...
