Reliable webhosts in the US

On a side note, I am starting to see some real flaws with Chrome.

Here's what I see in Chrome:


And here, Firefox:

I appreciate your input and will give this a shot.

We bought a theme because I didn't want to spend the time writing one from scratch. We found what had most of what we wanted built in and then set to hacking it to pieces making it look and work the way we wanted.

Considering we're loading the social interface on every page, it's in a floating header, you may have just brought up a good point.

Small typo:
it is also active on index.php=it is only active on index.php, I rushed when typing.

I knew what you were saying MysterF.

Sooooo... I just commented out the social icons in theme.php that's loaded on every single page since it's in the header. Hmmm... so far so good. Of course I'll have to monitor this over a period of several days.

I do notice that when a news item is loaded and it loads the social icons in the footer, there is a delay.

Maybe we're onto something here?

Those social wrappers/whatever are usually laced with unneeded crap. If you're not including them in your news posts (I'm going to be completely honest here, but IMO it's very arrogant to include like/+1 stuff in news posts. It's plenty to have people like your site, but every news post? Really?) you should consider just linking to your respective accounts with an icon.

If you want to have share options for your news posts, you should look into writing the code yourself in the theme.php instead of relying on their provided code snippet or some plugin to do it for you.

Finally, the link in your profile (to your site, with Incapsula enabled) still has the issue you mentioned. Perhaps it's a caching issue on my part, but the social bits are gone from what I can see.

Septor, I get your point but the purpose of having them on the newsposts are basically for sharing them. The goal is eventually to have someone writing our own news instead of repeating news we find elsewhere.

At some point I can worry about writing our own code for those things but currently I am trying to work out so many other issues.

What browser are you using? Because I still haven't seen it come back since removing those social links.

Chrome. I'll clear my cache/etc and check again.

It loads everything fine, it just some times catches for a second before loading the content.

edit: I go to the site. Click forum, works fine. Click home, little delay, then it displays everything. Click home again, works fine. Home again, small delay.

Yea after running the site through two analyzers a couple of things that need to be done once the site is ready to roll:

-Reduce HTTP calls (something I was already aware of and talked to my dev about)
-Consolidate some JS

Since you've been looking at the Incapsula hosted site, I wonder if it could have anything to do with your location and the server they're feeding you the site from.

Appreciate the analyses though!

It's possible. I'll check out the non-Incapsulated (yes, I went there) website and see if it does the same.

edit: Yeah, I did the same thing on the "test site" and I don't get the issue.
