Hi,

I have been trying to update my club website, speakinezy.toastmastersclubs.org/, and I have been very unsuccessful. For example, I tried to update my website's homepage this morning and it took about an hour and multiple tries to be able to save the edits. What happens is that once I try to save an edit, the website just says it is saving the edit but never moves from that stage 99% of the time. After painfully updating the home page, I moved into updating my club members list and I cannot add any new members at all. I cleaned my cache and reloaded the website from the server and that does not help either. This problem has been going on for a while for me. Thus, this is not something that just happened today. It has been going on for over a year and inhibiting me from keeping our website updated. Please help!

I just added an * to the bottom of your home page without any issues.

What time in the morning and what time zone.
Are you doing this from home or from work?
What Operating System and version
What browser and version?

Time of day does not matter. It never works no matter the time I access the system.
Time zone: Eastern Standard Time.
Operating System: Windows 10. I have tried using my work and personal computer. No difference. It still does not work.
Browsers: Google Chrome at home and at work. Neither work.
Both are version 94.0.4606.71

 

I am not seeing any issues on the site nor when I update your site.
I have use Chrome and Firefox and no problems with either.

Are you using a VPN ?
 

Definitely not at home and at work, maybe sometimes when I forget to disconnect it, but still does not work. I am trying to update the members list right now and it has been saving for the past 20 minutes. I just give up and try again, but that does not help either.

I just got the following error after 30 or more minutes waiting...
***Data Transfer Error***
JavaScript Function = Membership[Save] 
Status=error
Error = 

Please notify us about this at support.toastmatersclubs.org

Would you like to reload this website from the server?
 

After the error and all that wait, 3 of the 7 members that I wanted to upload magically appeared in the members list. Small victories I guess, but this is highly frustrating!!!

Another issue, I am trying to update my custom pages too, and I cannot even see them listed to access them.
 

There are 4 custom pages and I can see them all.
Can you try FireFox instead of chrome.
 

There is something messed up somewhere in your content or settings...  I am looking into it.    I can confirm that your site loads very slowly, but it is unique to your website, therefore it is very likely your content or settings.

It is something in your rich text content.  It is taking the rich text editor 42 seconds to load, which is unusual, and sometimes happens if it is having a hard time digesting some of the HTML that was created.

I did find some text that looks like it was raw HTML copied and pasted into the editor.  I fixed that, but I suspect that there are other occurences of it.

still looking.  I thought the slow down was unique to your website, but I am seeing it elsewhere also now.
