The fun of technology – but we’ve got to the bottom of it

Yes, the final post in the series didn’t appear yesterday. Basically, we have been having some technical difficulties recently which some of you may have noticed. The site has been running so slow, that clicking on a link meant you could go and make a cup of tea, have a chat with the neighbour, walk the dog and then polish your shoes while you were waiting for it to load. It was like being back in the days of dial-up…

Our trusty tech team have been playing with all sorts of things to try and figure out what it is that has been causing this. And of course, after a day of troubleshooting, it comes down to the simplest thing.

We changed the Wordpress template several months back to fit with our company look. Suddenly, the whole site went veeeeerrrryyyy slooooowwwwwly. Unfortunately, there was so much going on that the connection wasn’t actually made. It was only after tearing our hair out for more hours that we should that the penny dropped. We changed the template back and lo and behold! Everything is running at normal speed again.

Grrrrr.

So, apologies for the incongruous template at the moment. We will readjust it and normal programming will resume as soon as possible. Why is it that the most frustrating problems are usually caused by the simplest of things?
