Hi again,

I am still having a problem with pictures taking forever to load.

I reduced the size of the pictures I have embedded in the article, but size doesn't seem to matter here as none of the pictures are loading across all customer viewable FAQ's for at least 3 or 4 mins.. (it just shows the small broken picture icon) then suddenly all of them are viewable.

While waiting for a picture to load, I right-clicked on the broken picture link and it got me to log in as Admin and then I got a download prompt asking me did I want to save or view the file... I could download and view the file ok then.

I know there is a bug where if an internal article that contains pictures is converted to an external (public) one, the pictures are not viewable... I think I probably changed a few from internal to external (customer), but at least one or two were always external (customer), and their pictures are taking ages to load.

Logged on as an Admin I have no problems at all... all pictures are instantly viewable.

Strange.

Suggestions very welcome!  I'm getting lots of bad votes in the FAQ's due to non-existent pics! :(

Thanks

Emily

Re: [otrs] FAQ pictures taking longer to load for customers






Hi,

Thanks for your reply.  

I will try a reduction in image size, but I am based in the same office as the OTRS server and I am logging on as both Admin and Customer on the same pc and I experience the delay.

I'll see how the size reduction goes anyways,

Thanks

Emily

Hi,

350KB is quite big for web based images. That's almost 1MB just for
your images. If the customers are coming in over a WAN this could be
effecting things. You could firstly try to reduce them by saving them
with either jpeg or png compression.
