Complaints about the forum being slow

And, a completely new issue...the inability to edit posts.

How old is the post? after a Month, standard users can't edit a post, that's by design.

My provider is Shaw and I have tried IE, ME with Windows 10 and Safari with ios. Initially when I log in I get a vBulletin Message saying "Invalid Redirect URL". If I log in again it goes to the GOC webpage. I have also tried my iphone with Tbaytel and I get the same results.

your starting at http not https thats why

The post was only a minute or two old. It was #73 above. I wanted to edit and add that my issues occur regardless of location, device, provider or engine. And, unfortunately I have to add another issue: the reply with quote function seems to have stopped working. I tried to quote your post and it just kept on spinning.

If long threads make for slowness, let's kill the word association thread.

Where exactly are you located and what provider of internet are you using.

Inability to edit posts.
Same here. Last week I couldn't edit with Internet Explorer, but could with Firefox. This week neither works.

Doesn't work any more. Just hangs. I've been cut-paste to create quotes

Last week Firefox was faster at somethings than Microsoft Edge. This week Firefox has slowed down to Microsoft Edge speeds, including opening new threads.

I haven't been adding Laugh meme's because adding new posts is too slow.

The "What's New At GOC" is still badly formatted.

In Post #82 I incorrectly wrote "Internet Explorer" when I mean Microsoft Edge.
I can't edit that post with Chrome, Firefox, or Microsoft Edge.

The "Edit Post" button works, but the SAVE button doesn't.

This. Wonkey looking and annoying/slow to figure out what is what.

I have that issue with old bookmarks, if it's the same as me, you don't need to log in again just click one of the links at the top like "forum" or "what's new" and then when it reloads you'll show as logged in.

No, at least not for me. Entered https://gunownersofcanada.ca in the address bar directly and then logged in and got the “Invalid Redirect URL: https://gunownersofcanada.ca/“

I notice that the site links are all www.gunownersofcanada.ca vice gunownersofcanada.ca. Could there be some issue there? The vbulltin redirect on login needs to point to https://www.gunownersofcanada.ca?

EDIT: just tested. If I go to https://www.gunownersofcanada.ca (vice https://gunownersofcanada.ca) and log in I do not get the error.

Oh and this was at work which even though that would be Halifax, our Internet on the WAN comes from Ontario.

Been slow loading pages in the last 12 hours. Took a while to load a reply with quote window about 10 hours ago.

On high speed connection with Chrome. No recent system changes.

Nothing has changed for me. Same issue(s) I posted about and provided screen shots for above. Messed up "What's new..." formatting and VERY slow page loads.

Southern Ontario on Rogers. Doesn't matter what browser I use (Chrome/IE/Edge/Firefox/Safari) or what platform (3 different computers, iPad, Pixel 2 XL). Same issues.

K guys, if you have more or new information please present it, but repeating the same things doesn't help.
it just makes it take longer to review the post issues.
