 * **Update**
 * It does actually work using WP-Mail-SMTP plugin.
 * I have set up contact form to send to both our company email address and my person
   gmail address and this is the results.
 * There seems to be an hour delay from sending the message to it being received
   by our company email address.
 * The Gmail email address receives them instantly.
 * Any idea why the delay to the company email address ?
 * Thanks

 * I have got it working sort of.
 * installed pluging “WP-Mail-SMTP” and set it up to send from email that is a company
   email.
 * Tests work and emails are received, but only in Gmail.
 * So it works when sending emails to a gmail account, but not when sending to out
   company email address. ?
 * Strange.
 * Any ideas ?

 * Hello,
 * you are correct.
 * It excludes everything and makes a package about 174kb ?
 * Any idea why it excludes root files like wp-admin ?
 * Not sure how to go about getting around this ?

 * just to update.
 * I have done a pre zip check and it shows:
 * Pre-Zip Size: 792.51MB 28,081 Files, 3,227 Folders
 * It looks like it is trying to back up all my websites as they are in the root
   of the other main website.

 * well today was the fasted times that they have loaded. Normally they take over
   60 seconds to load.
 * its silly.
 * today bizwin took seconds and pmb took over 20 seconds.
 * then I tried another one [http://www.forklifttraining1.co.uk](http://www.forklifttraining1.co.uk)
   and that took over 2 mins to load up.
 * and [http://www.rpgarageservices.co.uk](http://www.rpgarageservices.co.uk) took
   about 3 seconds ish
 * Do you think its something to do with the hosting server ?
 * there is no pattern that i can see.
 * >  Are you getting any info from elsewhere that this is slow, or is it something
   > that you’re aware of?
 * Its me thats aware of it. And I have tried them at different locations on different
   machines and still get issues ?
 * I was gonna try another hosting company server and see if the same happens ?

 * I am sorry that i am replying to an old thread but im having similar issues and
   cant find any other threads that relate.
 * I have two sites both running the same theme and hosted on same shared hosted
   server. one is a sub domain and one is an addon domain.
 * My issues is the same issue every day. I try to go onto the websites and they
   both will not load up for over a minute, sometimes longer.
 * Once they are up and loaded they seem to work fine for the rest of the day. I
   have tried different pcs and phones and different mates internet and still the
   same issue occurs. I have spoken to the hosting company who checked them and 
   said they are both fine.
 * [http://www.bizwin.co.uk](http://www.bizwin.co.uk) and pmbtraining.com.bizwin.
   co.uk
 * Any ideas ?
 * Thanks

 * > If you’re using the forum as your front page, why to just use regular forum
   > software like phpBB or SMF?
 * I understand, but its much easier to use the existing wordpress template and 
   just add a plugin.
 * I have no experience with phpBB or SMF and I am not a coder, so making these 
   BB’s look like my wordpress website will be alot of unecessary work.
 * Thanks for the reply tho.

 * after a bit of swearing and testing, it seems that there is a bug with the pluging
   and static pages.
 * If you try make the plugin page the static Front page then you cant do anything
   with the pluging. So I have had to make another page static.
 * Any idea whats causing this and if there is a way to make the forum page the 
   static font page.
