my site got really slow and it started consuming a ton of memory, I had to turn off the module because my host kept shutting down my processes. Do you guys or someone else face this problem?
Howdy 7iber,
We have worked very hard to make our plugin as performant as possible, while still implementing the huge array of options our users want. Virtually every release we take a scrutinizing look at performance and see if there is anything more we can do.
It sounds like you might simply require a more powerful server. Or, often times web hosts will allow you to increase the memory limit on your current server. Here are some helpful links regarding this:
- Here’s is how to upgrade WordPress’ memory limit, right from the WP Codex.
- Here is the PHP reference for modifying your php.ini memory limit. Sometimes this is necessary as well. Not all hosting plans allow you to edit the php.ini file, so you would need to consult with your provider on how to do it and if you need to switch plans. You might even ask them what the maximum allowed memory is for the current plan, and make sure you are already there.
Keep in mind that WordPress is a powerful application, and our Calendar only adds to that power. Often times the cheapest hosts out there simply will not accommodate these, especially once you start having a lot of posts or events.
There is one other thing to try, that might help things allow. Try pasting this snippet in your theme’s functions.php file. If your server has a low limit set on joins, then this can sometimes fix that bottle neck.
Does that all make sense? Please let me know if you have any more questions, or if the above was able to help you resolve the issue. Thank you very much!
