Fixed it for me as well, thanks.
Thanks! Will this free extension work alongside my BestWestSoft Captcha, or should I first uninstall that?

In reply to: Need to optimise WordPress databaseRe: the Forums pop-in, I use a shortcode which I put in a widget so it appears on every page. Is there a shortcode or addition to the shortcode that I can use to not allow it to pop up on any /forums/ pages?

In reply to: Need to optimise WordPress databaseThanks for the fantastic observations leejosepho!
Technically, the cookie one should only be once, the first time a site is visited, but I agree the popup for the forum should disappear when actually on the forum. Will be looking into that one definitely!
It would be great on the forums if when people loaded new topics etc, only that window where the forum itself actually updated, as everything else is the same. Anyone know if this is possible?
Perhaps if I had smaller 125x ads on the side in that forum, it would speed up. Can’t get rid of ads entirely, as that is important to pay the bills. And I would like them to be less intrusive (Personally, I like ads no more than anyone else), so if it is the ads, I’m going to have to work out a compromise somehow. But the forum pages just seem so slow to me even with the ads as the main bulk has no no real graphics.

In reply to: Need to optimise WordPress databaseOk, Optimised my wordpress website with the excellent WP Clean Up, and it basically halved it from 234mb, down to 122mb.
That is great.
Site is still slow though. Would others agree that this is slow?
and especially browsing the forums at https://www.eyeondemand.com/forums

In reply to: Need to optimise WordPress databaseAh, think I have solved the backup issue. I was backing up the wrong database… Opps.
Anyway, tried the phoMayAdmin optimisation, and I can’t see any difference. Will try the above mentioned plug-in now.

In reply to: Need to optimise WordPress databaseHi there, thanks for the great answer.
So, I have PHPMyAdmin access, and I tried to backup my entire database via the Export (clicking my database, then selecting all items, then export), but the file it exports is only 142kb large. This is of course may too small since my database is over 230mb.
What could I be doing wrong?
Just out of interest, what email issues did you experience?
Thanks again, have you just experienced an email issue? If so, that is a pity as I thought I just solved that.
I’ll certainly sign up now.
Hi, and thanks for replying!
1) As soon as I activated Ultimate Member, any user photos previously uploaded disappeared. This included my main Admin account and the photo on my website: https://www.eyeondemand.com (It’s back, because I had to upload a new photo via Ultimate Member.
2) Yes, it is conditional. (Sidebar Loader). There are settings with this plug-in where things can be changed though. Have a look if you like at https://www.eyeondemand.com/forums (For anyone else, this forum is not public yet, so tread carefully as there are potholes)
3) Sure, just look above ??
6) Thanks!

In reply to: Shortcode within shortcodeThanks cubecolour. The tabs was included as part of a theme I bought. I’ll contact the developer as well and ask them.
There does seem to be an issue regarding shortcodes in this theme’s tabs.

In reply to: Blog attacked by Spam – How to reset views?No, posting comments, all commercials, mostly with links. I am having some success now with a catcha to block the posts, but they are still hitting the page distorting the numbers.
Same problem here as well. I installed Pie Register, and I can adjust the settings, but any one who tries to login or register, it just goes to the normal WordPress login and doesn’t include any changes I made in the Pie Register settings.
