Hi, I've just put YAF into a webpage - http://www.dbnetsuitevs.com/dbnetsuitevs/support.aspx - it works fine however it is very slow to load. The forum is in an iframe and the page loads around it but the forum isn't displayed for a while after. The timings say on the first load it is generated in around 2.5 seconds in Firefox however the page doesn't display for around 8-10 seconds. Do you know of any reason why it is running so slow? Once it has loaded once the next time it is loaded it is very fast (as expected). I presume that is to do with cached memory though. Thanks Pat

I've seen this behaviour before in IFRAME's. Not sure what the cause is, but if you put the control in a DIV, it will load as fast as the site. IFRAME's are good for small pop-ups, but YAF isn't small!! HTH :)

If you are hosted by Godady Check the following; Administration » Host Settings SMTP Server: relay-hosting.secureserver.net It must read “relay-hosting.secureserver.net” or the forum will run slow for you and you members.

My forum (yaf 1.9.1.8 on godaddy) was originally working fine; I have: host settings: Forum email: @ smtp: relay-hosting.secureserver.net The site worked fine, until last night, when the database size grew from 12M to 17M, NOW every action takes about 10 seconds to refresh, and yields the following error: Error sending emails to users System.Net.Mail.SmtpException: The operation has timed out. at System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient.Send(MailMessage message) at yaf.pages.ForumPage.SendMailThread() This was usually related to the smtp server, which I haven't changed. If I restore to a prior database everything works again. Fairly new site, but hoping to be able to continue with YAF. Any thoughts?

Well, godaddy says there's nothing wrong with their relay smtp. I'm still getting flooded with thousands of emails from the last post before things locked up (it's thousands of duplicates of the same email, every few minutes I get another hundred or so. I discovered that if I invoke: [code]delete from yaf_Mail[/code] to the database the forum perks up for a few minutes, but then bogs down with the same smtp timeout. Clearing yaf_Mail doesn't stop my email floods either; and members are getting the same thing. Any way to kill these emails and/or get the forum back up? ALSO: clearing yaf_mail also messed up 'new message' and 'sent items' in inbox I now get: [color=darkred]Server Error in '/yetanotherforum' Application. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The resource cannot be found. Description: HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly. Requested URL: /yetanotherforum/Default.aspx[/color] any other ideas?

[quote=Whitterz]Mine has done exactly the same - www.surinfarang.com/board Could do with this being resolved asap :([/quote]I don't know if your problem is the slow board, or the no new message thing I'm having, BUT I THINK I've 'fixed' the smtp timeout thing. It was a case of RTFM. I had somehow skipped the "add a root tag to yafnet.config" now that I have the root element in place, the forum is snappy again, and no more smtp timeouts (fingers crossed). I STILL don't have access to sent items and new message, with the error posted above. I THINK I did this to myself when I issued a clear to the yaf_mail and yaf_eventlog tables. I ust have corrupted them somehow, or there are entried that need to exist for PM creation and sent viewing. Any way to get these back?

Heres a reply i got off godaddy.com Dear Daniel Whitnall, Thank you for contacting Online Support. It appears you are referring to the email delivery being slow. We apologize for this inconvenience.
