Hello again 
I’m sure someone will know the answer here.
Question: can using the RPC host - “api.mainnet-beta.solana.com” for a minting website cause the specific problem of - the frontend minting button to be irresponsive?
I am at the stage of using “yarn build” to create a production build and using localhost:3000 to test the frontend site.
I am able to mint via the CLI (minted 5 times - using visual code) which works but the frontend mint button freezes after connecting a wallet - it does not even show a countdown timer till live mint date which is on the 22 April 20022.
I did a test run on the devnet using “api.devnet.solana.com” which worked with no problem occurring … I have been picking my brains since yesterday.
I have not received any common http error codes: “403, 429” that point to a rpc issue… the collection is only 2400 
- btw since I have minted 5 mints(CLI) before the go_live_date, would I need to update the candy machine to show 5 less mints in the config.json and .cache file? -
I have gone over the docs but no straight answers.
thanks
