I need to remove the venue dropdown from the admin area entirely—it’s causing 1-2 minute loading times in the admin area because of trying to dump too many things into Chosen.
How’s it going? We met a couple of years ago at WordCamp Atlanta and I really enjoyed the talk you gave!
Sorry to see that you’re experiencing load issues due to this feature! I see that you’ve got another ticket open for that so I won’t dig into that here.
As a temporary fix, you can prevent that dropdown from loading in the admin with this snippet.
Let me know if this helps or if you have any further questions.
