  • Hello!

    I have finally figured out what the issue is. It’s the pagelink field. Since we have about 1700 post and 35 pages the problem is that when you’re supposed to choose a link in the dropdown menu all of them are fetched and that’s what making the options page stop working. Is this a limitation that is common? Or is it my combination of fields that unfortunately breaks the page? Since it wants to get all these variables about 5 times over.

  • But the entries in the logfile for IIS are only what happens when the options-page is loaded, they never show otherwise. It’s only when loading that particular page that all the entries from the plugins shows up as far as I can tell.

    I haven’t got a test environment that’s totally similar to the production site unfortunately.

    I am not hosting the site anywhere, we’ve set up the server ourselves and have full access to it.

    When I changed the theme on the develoment site there was no difference in the page loading time.

  • Hello again!

    Since the last time I wrote here we have changed server from windows and IIS to ubuntu 12.04 with Apache 2.2 PHP5-FPM and now the options page is totally blank. It takes around four seconds and then the page goes blank, no source code at all.

    Any ideas as to why this happens?

    Thanks!

  • Why is it that some plugins slows down the options page? Plugin incompatibility? Due to any hooks or filters that are being used in both?
    Or am I out on a limb here?

  • I have gone through the plugins on my test site and found out the following:

    When I inactivate alla plugins except ACF and it’s add-ons, the page loads just fine in about 7-9 seconds. I found out that the All-in-One Event Calendar is the plugin that slows the page down the most.

    Also contributing to the slow load time is the plugins Collapsing categories, BWP Google XML Sitemaps and WP Facebook Open Graph protocol.

    Another observation is that when all the plugins are activated as before my troubleshooting, the amount of time that it takes for the options page to load is around a minute. Instead of up to 4 minutes as it was before I started inactivating and troubleshooting.

    Can the inactivation of the plugins itself have any effect on the load time?

  • Yes, we use repeater fields with sub fields and there is a page_link amongst them. There is also repeater fields with post_object in them. Is this something that could be a problem?

  • The issue with high server load only occurs on the Options page of ACF (domain.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=acf-options), it takes more than 4 minutes to load that page. There is about 36 fields there and so it shouldn’t be a server issue only.

    You don’t have any idea what else could be causing an issue like this?

    Thank you!

  • The thing is that the files on the production site and in the test environment are the same, both the category pages in the theme and the other files as functions.php so this is really weird. Could the database be the issue? As far as I can tell the issue came after an update that occurred some time before december 4th, that’s when I first noticed it.

    As to the options-page, the site does have about 40 plugins and I realize that this is problematic, but since the client that I’m working for needs pretty much all of them to keep all functionality I’m kind of in a bind.
