Old URL for background times out

    Two years after moving our website from a temporary server to a production server, users began complaining that our homepage “runs and runs” before timing out- of course the temp server was taken offline. The production site is: https://www.stgabschool.org/wp_root/

    Firefox reports that a background image from the old site is being called during the homepage load (“View Page Info”). I’ve reviewed all the settings in our Modularity theme, the header & footer, and anything else I could think of- not finding a hard-coded URL to the old server.

    Any suggestions as to where I might find the old URL hiding?

  • Perhaps this — see style.css file:

    #top {
    background-image: url("https://stgabschool.org.temp.nuvox.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/headerimg1.jpg");
    color: #666666;
    height: 150px;
    margin: 0 auto 1em;
    padding: 0 0 0.5em;
    position: relative;
    width: 990px;
    z-index: 30;
}

    Thanks- that’s exactly where it was!

    Can’t imagine why the original developer hard-coded that, but I’m embarrased that I missed it.
