• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey. If your responses match the persona we are looking for, you'll receive a link to schedule a call at your convenience. We look forward to hearing from you!
  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Is it only me, or does anyone else find the "Please Wait Loading" box annoying.
 
Loading

I still prefer the normal method, but hey, maybe its just me ;)

Really really annoying. It's nice conceptually, but in practice I freakin' hate it.

They probably do it so you can't click on something before the whole page loads (so JavaScript doesn't screw up). I run into that in my own web-applications. People are often clicking before the whole thing loads.

I like it. :)

Not sure why the left frame likes to be greyed out too though...
 
Its noce at first, but then just gets annoying. It should be an option to turn it on or off, as it has no purpose other than to look good.
 
Hey Joel,
I'm pretty sure it has it's use. Probably to not allow you to click on anything until the page fully loads to prevent JavaScript errors in the page.

I'd love to find a way to turn that stupid thing off. Depending on your server speed and connection, I've noticed it definitely slows down the page load time. I mean, if the page is white and the browser is working, I KNOW that it's loading - I don't need to be told that.
 
It never goes away!!

Maybe this is just me, but I'm using Firefox 1.0 and that stupid "Please wait, Loading ..." thing never goes away!!!
 
Just checked it out on a PC with IE and the "please loading" thing is nice and slick there ... albeit still annoying, but it is 100% broken on Firefox (and probably any other Gecko browser like Netscape).
 
I had the same problem on Firefox but for some onknown reason it went away. Very strange. Has any body heard from Swsoft on a fix for this..ie. remove it or add an option to turn it off?
 
Its not a matter of if you like it or not...it is if it actually works on a wide variety of environments.

Swsoft has said that this will become and option in the next patch.
 
It works fine for me in the latest Firefox on WinXP and in latest Mozilla on FC2.
 
Hmmm ... bizarre. I thought I was running Firefox 1.0 (on Mac OS X, dual 2GHz G5) - and the about firefox said as much, but I just re-downloaded 1.0 and now it works. Bizarre.

OK, I'm much less annoyed now :)
 
Wow, so SW-Soft does read these forums after all. 7.5.1 has been released and allows you to disable the please waiting screen. Well done guys.

How? Where?


Thanks
 
Dear friend;

In my opinion these "feature" it's good, maybe a well known internet user things it's stupid but my clients (and i have some) are evry impatient and stoping them to clic and do strange things while loading...It's good

And btw us some of them thinks that it's nice :)

I think disabling it only it's fine for well known admins but for a domain user it's better to leave it enabled...

I think we have to understand SW-Soft, they think to make better the software, and of corse some people will think that some features aren't fine and others fantastic, but we don't have to despreciate it, maybe i think these is fine and other will think the contrary but we have to respect the others...

And of corse we have to respect sw-soft developers, they are humans and they can do little bugs..Now i'm talking for other threads in the forum...Seams that some people are very inteligent.....

But in the same way, i think sw-soft has to make a bugs page, a page where the sysadmins can take a look before upgrade, and if a little patch apears, put it there, if we have more info, and if these info it's official, i think we can have more tools to avoid problems, and these will distingue SW-soft and Plesk as better product, i recomend to sw-soft to explain any problem, them are normal...I don't want to them fall in a "microsoft policy" like, where all it's fantastic and the flowers are beautifull...We are humans, not animals, we can talk and we have to respect the others...

Best regards to all the people

Should checking the "Disable lock screen" option disable this loading thing? Because it doesn't for me. So i'm still stuck when using firefox.
