MS Banner not loading initially?

[Rick Junkin]

The Mooney badge and MOOONEYSPACE.COM do not load initially when I open the web site. When I refresh the page the banner displays properly. Is anyone else seeing this behavior? Not a big problem, just weird.

I'm using Safari 18.0.1 on a MacBook Air running macOS Sequoia 15.0.1.

I have not seen that specific behavior yet, but I do notice that the entire site is running substantially slower for the last week or two.  When I click for "next unread post" it is now taking 5 to 10 seconds.

I did an update/patch to the site software yesterday and today started seeing some odd things.  I did a cache flush on the forum system and it seems to have fixed the odd things I was seeing.  Hope this helps with the other odd things you all are seeing!

I'm still seeing the same banner behavior on my MacBook, iPad and iPhone running the most recent OS and iOS versions. Possibly a Safari browser issue with the latest update.

EDIT: Yup, I tried Google Chrome and it works as expected. Something changed in Safari that is causing the banner to not load until the web page is refreshed.

Safari is always a problematic browser for many sites.  I told my wife to ditch that for Chrome years ago and she's never looked back.  Doing tech support for websites for many years that was always one of my first questions "what browser are you using?" and if "Safari" was the answer I would have them try Chrome or any Mozilla based browser and almost always it fixed quirky type things with sites.
