In many cases there is anywhere from a 3 to even as long as 10 second delay after clicking the like button before it actually physically materializes(like button changes and green notification pop up saying you liked it).
Is this just how your forum script is normally?
Hi @stevenminix,
There is no such issue on our test website, it works fast. It can be tested here: https://wpforo.com/community/
wpForo is designed to be very fast and work with small and large databases. However, there are many factors that may slow wpForo. Please follow this FAQ topic to get more info: https://wpforo.com/community/faq/forum-is-slow/
I have already done all of the steps in the "forum is slow" forum. Still many actions see delay and slow speed. rest of my site is super fast and I am running on a dedicated server
