SE4.me is an unofficial, active support community for SocialEngine 4 users set up by the same people behind SocialEngineMechanic.com. Members of this community can post tutorials, discuss issues regarding SE4, track down bugs and post temporary fixes for such. Additionally, issues related to hosting and design are discussed as well while third-party developers can advertise their plugins that extend SocialEngine’s capabilities.

If you’re using SocialEngine4, you may want to sign up and be part of this community.

SE4.me is currently hosted by Arvixe and is using version 4.1.1 of SocialEngine.

Optimizing SocialEngine 4 Performance.

There’s always complains left and right about SocialEngine 4 being slow but the truth is you may have just have to turn Production Mode on. Go to the admin panel of your SE4 install, on the home page look at the lower right panel and you will see “System Mode” and underneath them you’ll have two buttons (Development and Production Mode). Click on Production Mode to speed up the performance of your SE4 site.

In addition to that, go to Settings > Performance and Caching to improve the performance further. You will see options under Caching Feature where the default is based on File-based which uses disk space for caching. You can choose either memcache or APC as they have a better performance over a file-based caching system.

Arvixe’s webhosting is optimized for SocialEngine4 and is highly recommended by Webligo as a webhost for your SocialEngine website.
