My Plugin Is SLowing Down The Site

  • Hey

    I developed a plug-in that serves 3 purposes:

    1.) Create the admin panel of an ecommerce shop we are setting up for wordpress

    2.) Create the order pages and order response pages

    3.) Create interaction with a calendar script (3rd party) so when a wordpress page is loaded, I can read the data and interact with it so events can be loaded for the visitors to view.

    Should I be creating 3 separate plugins for these items? I feel that with this one plugin, the site comes to a crawl. Without it, it loads quickly.

    I am afraid to install wp super cache and I just wonder how I can figure out how to either optimize my code or if the front end (blog portion) should be ONE plugin and the back-end (admin) should be another, since the admin takes up a bunch of queries.

    I will post code upon request but I didn’t want to do that without permission.

    Thanks

    One thing I noticed. One of the files requires curl commands
    because I have no other way of using a dynamic include (Where I can include a file with querystrings, this host doesn’t support it)

    I wonder if that is what’s causing the delay, as with this plugin, it’s probably loading those curl commands each time. I wonder if creating a way to block out these functions if it’s not a certain page that they request would help…
