as a registered user you have some advantages like free downloads, comments and posting on our forums, depending upon this site's configuration and options.
OK, but you didn't actually state that's what you done. You'd be able to see that from manually browsing through that database. These sort of problems are very hard for anyone to assist unless they have good local knowledge of your site.
Hence why it's very important to say exactly what you've attempted to do to resolve the problem
OK, so next question would be, did this problem suddenly start happening? Or was it a gradual slowdown? If it was sudden then you need to think what you done on your site around that time. It could be something like adding or removing topics, or changing a load of permissions etc
It looks like the problem is with your topic 178, I have no idea how many stories you've got attached to that topic. I'm guessing a lot, but the support staff here will need some idea of numbers to progress any further

Sorry about that ...
It has been going on for some time now. The site has been active since Oct 2006 and it was put on this NEW server about three months ago.
There are only 11 stories attached to topic 178
Topic 177 has 10 and it takes 3.8 seconds.
Topic 176 has 10 and it takes 1.8 seconds.
It is almost as if it has something with the main page.
I took the "News" off the main page and went directly to topic 178 and it took 5.92 seconds
I put "News" back on the main page and that topic takes 6.41 seconds.
Do you think this could have anything to do with the HTML code in the stories.
All stories in topic 176, 177 and 178 have the same kind of code.
My process is to open our articles in Adobe InDesign copy the text and past it into an OpenOffice doc. Then make all the text Arial. Then copy it and paste it in the WYSIWYG..
Here is a sample of the HTML that goes into a story...
FYI I have been doing it this way since I started the site
Code:
<p> <font><sup><font><font>Fr. Matthias Gaudron</font></font></sup></font>
</p>
<p>
<br>
</p>
<p> <font><font><font>The fact that the Church today is in crisis is almost undisputed. We are all familiar to some extent with this reality. Fr. Matthias Gaudron originally published this Catechism in order to both solidify our understanding of the principles behind the crisis and as an aid to help those who do not see the gravity of the current situation. We will provide a brief chapter each month in traditional catechetical format: Each question is followed by a succinct response, and then by a series of more detailed questions and answers that justify and elaborate the general answer. </font></font></font>
</p>
<p>
</p>
<div>
</div>
All the code doesn't display in this forum... there are a lot if div and span and style tags
Most of the topics, e.g. 259, came from straight/pure HTML and were put in the DB via an excellent script written by dmcl1

If you don't want to use MDPro 1.080 try to install a new fresh installation of MDPro 1.076 in a subdirectory
