First login slow? Started By Marnix Hi there, On some websites Ive got the idea that the first time I login (as a host) is really slow. I mean I really have to wait for about 1 minute sometimes. Then, when I logout and login again, after the first time, the issue is gone, it takes less then a second. So I'm pretty sure this is not the app pool starting up or something, I visit the site first, then go to the login page, then only on login I have to wait for about 1 minute. So because I already visited some pages, it cannot b...	1	1927	1	11/16/2020 3:10 AM by Marnix
Uploading and optimizing Started By alexismaria We are having extremem difficulties in uploading documents to the ASSETs folder in one of our portals. It is a secure website requiring various levels of security, depending on the user and role. I am a host/superuser and the clock keeps spinning and I either get an error for attempting to upload a document that is small - 250 kb. I also cannot see all the documents that are in the particular folder. What can I do to fix the performance and optimization of the uploading process Admin log...	12	6202	3	7/17/2020 9:56 AM by alexismaria
Ultra Slow Started By Joyce Hello I have reecently installed a DNN 9.7.0 onto a live server. I have removed the content from the default home page and put a 'Site under Construction' message. So far I have begun to create a page. Thus the site does not contain content or images, yet it is unbelieveably slow. Further it will display on Firefox browser, with a site insecure icon in the address bar. However when trying to view on a Chrome browser the page is only partly displaying and it shows 404 error page with t...	5	2517	3	9/4/2020 6:46 PM by Joyce
auto-sum grid entries Started By JulesFL This is basically a monthly timecard. Users would prefer that their time auto-sum as they enter it, instead of clicking Save. Is that possible Data source for the grid is a SQL table-valued function.	1	1722	1	9/4/2020 5:15 PM by JulesFL

Site Export - Scheduler Event Failure Started By Michael B Hello, Everytime I run the Site Import/Export process, the process ends with a Scheduler Event Failure. When the process errors, three Scheduler Exceptions are logged, one Genreal Exception is logged, and three Scheduler Event Failures are logged. The Message from the Admin Logs states a 'Thread was being aborted' for all 7 errors. My company has DNN EVOQ Content version 9.02.00 (144). I believe it is running in an Azure App Service as well. On the scheduler task for Site Import/Export, I ...	1	2640	0	11/8/2019 1:18 PM by Michael B
Site Settings problems in DNN 9.2.2 Started By Tom Melkonian Hi - I'm running DNN 9.2.2 (preparing to upgrade to DNN 9.5) I've had this issue for awhile but haven't ever found a solution. Here's the behavior I'm seeing: - As a superuser, when I click on 'Settings >> Site Settings' in the Persona Bar, the light blue loading bar at the top of the page (the one which displays 'you appear to have a slow connection..' when page loading takes time) starts flashing (from left to right as if the page is loading again and again). I can still access Site Se...	8	4042	2	5/7/2020 1:12 PM by Tom Melkonian

DNN Folder Structure Started By Denise Hi everyone, My first time posting, not a programmer, looking for suggestions. My seo guy says DNN (version is 7, but I will be using 9 in the future) creates two versions of a page because it does not automatically end the URL with a backslash, for example domainname/about-us and domainname/about-us/ both exist -- how can I make dnn only and always create domainname/about-us/ with the slash at the end	5	4060	3	7/2/2019 12:09 PM by Denise
Adjusting Pages in the Persona Bar Started By Tom Melkonian Hi - I'm running DNN 9.3.2 - Inside the Persona Bar, when I go to Pages, I can't see the full page names for any page with a name longer than around 15 characters. The name is cut off and displayed with ellipses ('...') Is there anyway (through CSS or whatever) to adjust so that I see more of the page name Can I widen the left panel I tried looking into the css but with no luck so far. Thanks Tom	3	2705	3	1/9/2020 8:53 PM by Tom Melkonian
