Admin-Ajax issue

  • We are having some significant lag in load time for our client’s site and traced the problem back to instagram.js specifically the call to admin-ajax. It’s causing the site to load very slowly. This query is un-cached and directly uses system resources. Is there a fix for this that we can apply?

    Hey PDidee,

    The admin-ajax call is used to get the cached data to create the feed on the page. Even though this increases the overall load time of the page, the content other than the Instagram feed loads faster.

    We are considering alternatives to how this works though for users concerned about the total load time of the page. As of right now there isn’t a way to change this.

    @pdidee If you are using WP Rocket or similar caching plugins you can defer the loading of JS and that should ease up the initial admin-ajax load. At least that did the trick for me.
