Everweb 2.5 update issue

I am using the latest Mac OSX High Sierra. I updated Everweb 2.4 to 2.5 today and now every edit I do is met with a spinning beachball. I dragged 2.4 out of Trash and opened 2.4 and the edits are smoother but still get a spinning beachball occasionally ... and had a Preferences error alert (whatever that was). FYI |

Hi Michael, Sorry for the problems you are experiencing. Have you tried restarting your computer? Quote: and had a Preferences error alert (whatever that was). What alert did you get, I am not sure what you are referring to here. What did it say? ------------------------------- Paul EverWeb Developer |

| I have this problem too (spinning beachball with every edit). I am using Everweb 2.5.1 with High Sierra 10.13.3 Beta (17D25b). Rather annoying... | |

Hi Wim, Sorry for the problems you are experiencing. It could be an issue with the latest version of macOS since you are using a beta version Have you tried version 2.6? Have you tried booting in safe mode? https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201262 Let me know if this helps. ------------------------------- Paul EverWeb Developer |

| I have the impression 2.6 has less spinning ball time, and I have the impression it is even better in safe mode. However, it is still happening, though less obtrusively. | |

Hi Wim, Sorry for the problems you are experiencing. If you start a new project does it happen with it? I'd like to know if it is specific to your project or if it happens with EverWeb project. How long do you see the spinning beachball for? ------------------------------- Paul EverWeb Developer |

Now today the problem seems to be over. So yesterday I upgraded to Everweb 2.6, then I tried restarting in safe mode on my macbook retina and the spinning seemed to occur less often and for shorter time. Perhaps from 1 second per edit to half a second. Then I restarted the macbook in normal mode. I'm going to try all that on my mac mini to see if the spinning ball is gone there too. However, there is another variable in the game. I've been dragging some hires photos (4k: 3840x2160) to the web page and they were not converted to web resolution (which was the standard procedure before). So, I decided to create lores pictures for the web page and put the hires in external files with a link. Perhaps the heavy images caused the slowing down? |

The images you are importing are huge and way too big for website use. Images that size will not only slow EverWeb down down but will also make you page download too slow in the browser. A web page should download in less than 2 seconds or 4 seconds when downloaded on a device using a wireless cell phone network. Images should be no more than 1600px wide for full width use and about 1000px for full content width. Always reduce your image files to the actual width they will appear on the web page before importing into EverWeb. There's no point in importing a 1200px wide image if it is going to be displayed at 600px wide. ------------------------------- Roddy Website: http://everwebwidgets.com Contact: http://everwebwidgets.com/ewWidgets-home/contact.html NOTE: I am an EverWeb user and NOT affiliated with EverWeb!

| Yes, I have replaced the hires images by lores, but that doesn't change the spinning ball problem in everweb. I don't know why sometimes everweb suggests creating converted lores copies and sometimes it just accepts the hires images. | |

Quote: I don't know why sometimes everweb suggests creating converted lores copies and sometimes it just accepts the hires images. EverWeb will ask to optimize the image if it has a resolution higher than 144 DPI or if it is larger than 50MB, not if the width/height are large because when you use them on your website, EverWeb will export the appropriate image size. ------------------------------- Paul EverWeb Developer |
