Running Slow Again Since New Update

[Andrea]

Hello, I just updated to the new version and my site is running slow. I had this issue before and thought it was due to the theme I was using. I think it may be a combination of the theme and the PRO plugin.

Is there a way for me to reinstall the older version? Everything worked well with that one. I cannot seem to get into my admin at times to look at the specific version number so sorry for not being more specific.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Hey Andrea, who are you hosting with? That would be the first thing I’d take a look at. I know from experience that GoDaddy is usually super slow. So if you’ve got them you might want to consider switching web hosts. Another thing you should take a look at is how much memory is allocated for your site. You can check with your web host to find out and/or just try increasing it yourself: http://www.dailyblogging.org/wordpress/increase-wordpress-memory-limit/

Other things to take a look at are:

1. Other plugins.
2. Your theme and how clean/optimized the code is.
3. Consider using a caching plugin to help boost performance overall – I almost exclusively use this one: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/w3-total-cache/
4. This article goes over a few other things you can look at: http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Optimization

I doubt it’s anything with the plugin itself because it’s really gone through the wringer to make sure it’s optimized for speed and scalability.

I hope this helps and I hope you get the speed issues worked out.
