Too much positions in order

Hello Abui,
Are you on shared hosting? The wordpress memory limit does not help when you are on shared hosting and other processes are eating up memory. I have not tested with large orders like that. Memory use of the PDF engine is unfortunately not something I can control.

You could try and run the P3 profiler and see if that gives you information on which are the heavy plugins on your install. WPMU might be part of what causes the heavy load.

Let me know what you find!

html output works with this in funktions.php

add_filter( 'wpo_wcpdf_output_html', '__return_true' );
add_filter( 'wpo_wcpdf_use_path', '__return_false' );

Yes, it’s not the HTML that causes the issue, it’s generating the PDF that consumes memory. P3 profiler is free and can be downloaded here: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/p3-profiler/

I profiled my WordPress site’s performance using the Profile Plugin and I wanted
to share the results with you. Please take a look at the information below:

and now?
thanks!!

Now you have a better overview of what plugins are affecting your site load. I don’t see anything strange, so I cannot say what the issue is here. Again, it could be the fact that you run Multisite (how many sites are under this install?), and/or your hosts available memory. You can set the WordPress memory limit very high but if there’s no memory available then that doesn’t help… Especially for multisite.

At this point I’m not sure if I could help out further.

On a sidenote, the ‘out of memory’ reports that it’s out of memory at 66.75MB (69992448 bytes). Your ‘default’ load as per P3 is 43.06MB, so there’s relatively little room for the PDF engine. Also, the 66,75 doesn’t correspond with the 256MB wordpress limit. I recommend contacting your host about this issue.

Hi Ewout,
I’ve moved to a “bigger” server and need for the PDF generation with 70 positions 300 MB memory.
So it works now!

Great! Thanks for the feedback – enjoy!
