Did anyone else find this site very, very slow late last night? (Monday)

Another forum site I used, worked fine, so did some retailers’ web-sites I examined.

This site though was really struggling.

The Log-in process was flakey, and when switching from one forum to another the site took a long time to rebuild the page. It seems to work by switching off everything to leave a blank window, then adding the various panels like the ads for the magazines, before opening the forum you have requested. Normally this is too rapid to see.

That was late at night when Internet traffic is less, but this morning it is all working as it should, with a changeover time between threads only just discernible.

Given that everything else ran as it should, I doubt this is relevant but all my Internet use is via a DELL PC running on WIN-11, and via BTinternet.

…..

Out of curiosity, what does this  ‘[wpcode id="269"]‘ mean, on the toolbar between ‘Profile’ and ‘Help’? I don’t recall seeing that until a few days ago, if that.

Its location suggests it is a switch but as anything could happen if I clicked on it, I am reluctant to risk it, whether anything useful, utter disaster or merely a “Badedas Bath” !
