Thanks for the update @DeAnne!
I’m glad there’s some progress, despite persisting issues with performance 🙁 I would indeed recommend reaching out to your web host and such, that’s the best way forward on this (although if they share any specific details about our code that might be a factor, or specific error log notices and such, definitely open a new thread any time about that!).
@Allyson – Digital Ocean is a pretty great host, so I’m afraid that I don’t know much else about what could be the problem here. It seems like inherent limitations with our plugin and site performance are the main culprit here, and other code on your site like other plugins or your theme may be a factor as well.
Since this thread is DeAnne’s originally, I will close it up because her central issues are resolved.
For you, @Allyson, I would recommend contatcing the Digital Ocean support team and would also recommend deactivating every plugin on your site but The Events Calendar and seeing if this makes a difference at all.
If other specific issues arise, you can open a new thread here too 🙂
Thank you both for your patience here! I will close up this thread and wish you both the best of luck with your projects.
Sincerely,
George
