World Anvil is very slow for me

By Lort_Luca on 04/25/2024

Hello Since I bought it, my World Anvil has been very slow, which is keeping me from working. No matter where I click, it always takes 10 to 60 seconds until the desired page opens. (Often it simply doesn't react at all.) I also keep getting error messages saying that something went wrong, but it doesn't tell me what. Kind regards Lort_Luca

Ditto for me! Lagging appears to be site-wide, pretty much every time I click on something. It's especially bad on the category edit page - which has been brutal, as I'm trying to reorganize a world at the moment. I've spotted the error messages mostly on article editors whose tabs have been open but unused for a while (usually overnight). In addition to those things, certain icons/buttons won't load properly for me - to the point of being unreadable or barely visible, making the site very difficult to navigate. I'm on a Macbook Pro and have tried multiple browsers (Chrome, Brave, Safari). I've done all the standard troubleshooting (turn off extensions, clear cookies, updates, etc.). No improvements thus far.   I doubt it's related to the fact that you recently bought a subscription. (I've been using the Master tier for nearly 3 years). I suspect the new UI is the culprit. World Anvil has never been the speediest website, but fast enough, and with so many great world-building tools, I think it's 100% worth the subscription cost. You just picked an unlucky time to start a paid subscription.

Hi, I'm closing this since the website is now back to its expected performance.
