Sorry to have raised this as I have now found the solution. You need to copy the relevant php file from the bbpress folder to within the theme folder.

[bobgarrett]

I have implemented that and it works so thank you so much.

[bobgarrett]

I had tried 0 and it is now 0 but still has delay.

[bobgarrett]

Yes I have added child themes before. Thanks for the help.

[bobgarrett]

I had previously put this css in with 0.1s as the timing. I have also tried making it !important. But still the delay.

[bobgarrett]

Sorry for the long delay before responding. The delay on loading a page seems to be on every page except the home page.

As an example, this page https://www.ccrc.co.uk/about-chichester-cruiser-racing-club/ (and all the rest) load the top banner and the content and then after a short delay the page title appears.

Looking at the Chrome waterfall analysis the first item is “about chichester cruiser racing club” and takes ~2s. Then there are whole load more other small “GET”s until another “about chichester cruiser racing club” which takes ~3s.

Are you able to see this too?

 

[bobgarrett]

Magic!

Thank you.

Site is open again now.

[bobgarrett]

Apologies, I am doing some major changes. I will let you know when it is open again.

[bobgarrett]

The particular pages of the forum are only for member access but this page shows the same problem as it is a post, so not a page we can set the format for.

Apologies for wasting your time. I created a new site with just the essentials and did not find the problem. I then found the problem was custom css applied to the theme at the suggestion of one of the plugin vendors to solve a particular issue. Of course changing from your theme disabled this hence why I assumed the problem was the theme.

Thanks again for your support.

[bobgarrett]

Any update on this as we still have this problem? I am reluctant to move to the standard theme but may have to soon.

[bobgarrett]

Well this is a puzzle. I did at first suspect a plugin but disabling it made no difference. I then tried disabling all the plugins but a couple that would have stopped the site working for an important element. The problem was still there. I then re-enabled all those plugins and changed the theme to Twenty-Twenty-two and the problem was immediately fixed. Hence why I thought it must be the theme.

As suggested I have tried disabling cache plugins to no avail. I also disabled most plugins again. Problem still there.

Looking at the html/css of the page the form html is there but I now see that in the css there is the following…

#comments.comments-area {
display: none;
}

So the question arises as to what is inserting this. A search of the files in the site says it is in style.css of Corporacy, yet when I then go to edit that file and search for that code it is not there.

Any suggestions?

[bobgarrett]

The site (and page) is https://www.ccrc.co.uk/public-forum/ but you can only reply if you have a login so I am not sure how much this will help without me creating a user for you.

[bobgarrett]

Delete this, caching I think.

[bobgarrett]

That test site is now closed as we have gone live at http://www.ccrc.co.uk

[bobgarrett]

Ah, the problem has returned.

I now see that the issue appears and disappears depending on the browser screen width. It is noticeable now because I added the “wave” bottom to the featured image on the front page. If you make your browser not full screen, scroll down so the bottom of the image is visible, and then move the width of the browser windows less and more then the problem appears and goes away presumably as the settings for display change.

[bobgarrett]

You have to be patient with me! I now realise the cropped top image was because I had one stage of zoom enable on Firefox!

[bobgarrett]

Thanks for all your help, we have now gone live (www.ccrc.co.uk) but have two problems though only one is with the theme I think.

I have added a “wave” to the bottom of the featured image on the front page which is not showing correctly as the bottom is not transparent (not a theme problem I assume) but it does highlight that while on Chrome the image displays correctly, in Firefox it does not. Any suggestions?

[bobgarrett]

That worked. Thanks.
