What happened to the Who's Online box? The one on the left that would show who is currently online? It's gone...at least for me.

Like Gunnie said, Jim's probably upgrading the code related to that feature. I sure hope it's back pretty soon!
Otherwise, I don't know who to annoy with many private messages! #:-)

Geese...I didn't know you guys loved it so much.

Actually I am trying to figure out what is slowing the load times of the homepage. And in doing so I thought I would take this feature off-line to see if there was a noticable difference.

I am going to be working on some code to "flatten" some of the homepage items, basically allowing them to be loaded as plain HTML and not dynamically. Then every 15 min or so the HTML would be updated if any changes had taken place. Will probably try to do this on all center page items on the homepage.

I will restore the Front Gate block once I see if it's making any real change in performance.
