has something changed recently i have not changed any settings most time i ever waited was about an hour before now

thank you

It looks like your transaction has already confirmed, but this transaction only used 56 sats/byte which is low for the current level of network congestion. At the current moment, miners want about 180 satoshis/byte which is, unfortunately, quite high. I'd recommend using the Dynamic Fees slider and moving it more to the right to speed up confirmations at the cost of higher fees.

Unfortunately the network is cluttered with a lot of unconfirmed transactions at the moment (81k from the time of writing this post) and as result, even transactions with normal fees tend to receive confirmations a bit late than usual.

The only way for you to get rid of this issue for future transactions, is to use a fee higher than usual or better look at this website and use the appropriate fee: http://bitcoinfees.21.co/#fees
Posting your transaction link could also help in identifying the issue (which most likely is a lower fee than recommended).

Most likely it will get confirmed (although will take a while).
