Speed and errors

[mediaconsulting_com_ua]

The website has been working with theme X for more than a year and only now we drew attention to 2 problems.

1. Old posts in the blog time are loaded for quite a long. It is takes 1-2 minutes to load the editing mode with cornerstone.
2. Errors about too many redirects or plugin conflict or aggressive page cacheing occurs frequently during the loading of the editing mode or during editing itself. This error could occur 10-15 times during the publication of one post so it reduces the speed of autor’s work in times.
   Is there anything we can do to speed up the work of the site’s background?

Thanks in advance

Hey @mediaconsulting_com,

The issues you described most probably was caused by caching. Please check for the following first:

1. Ensure everything is up to date according to our version compatibility list at https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/troubleshooting-version-compatibility/195. Please follow the best practices when updating your theme and plugins. See https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/setup-updating-your-themes-and-plugins/62 for more details.

2. Clear all caches including browser cache then deactivate your caching plugins and other optimization plugins.

3. If you’re using a CDN, please clear the CDN’s cache and disable optimization services.

4. Test for a plugin conflict. You can do this by deactivating all third party plugins, and seeing if the problem remains. If it’s fixed, you’ll know a plugin caused the problem, and you can narrow down which one by reactivating them one at a time.

5. Remove custom CSS, Javascript and templates.

6. Reset your htaccess file by renaming it to .htaccess-bak. Then in WP Admin Menu, go to Settings > Permalinks and just click the Save Changes button.

7. Slow back-end mostly is caused by low memory setting. Contact your host to increase your allocated memory or do it yourself by adding this code in your wp-config.php

define( 'WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M' );
define( 'WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT', '512M' );

Thanks.
