I’m a bit weirded by this, as its clearly something WooCommerce needs to support. I should be able to associate the same products with the same categories. This is weird that you won’t offer basic support for wordpress core functionalities such as custom taxonomies. This is built in wordpress standards that your plugin is breaking,

It is “toy-types” slug. The taxonomy is a multi-level taxonomy. If the content has the same terms as the products, I want to show it.

I am just trying to add a taxonomy to the WooCommerce Products.

Specifically, I want to use the matching taxonomy terms to present products on my content type.

just sent, I hope they can solve this.

Here is a SFW example:https://pricelessgemstone.com/test-delete-me/

You can see it works here, but I can’t get do it on another page.

I’m not using a setting. I’m using Astra theme, and am using a spectra “Design Library” “Hero” where the image is on the right or left. I will suggest picking left. I then delete the image and put in image gallery. The image gallery works until I have more than one image, I set it to carousel, and then I set it to display one slide at a time, then it blows out.

I was able to solve this issue by fixing the pager, by shutting the pager on and off again. I then was able to fix the other errors, by duplicating each block within the pattern twice, then deleteing the first and last one. I did this because I didn’t know which one was the original, and I knew the duplicate post process would have to re-assign the keys. Sadly, we cant seem to change the page keys any other way.

To be clear, the issue I have is on a dedicated server. My websites use highly advanced spectra based webpages with many features. My problems arrive when I clear the cache on my website. Usually right after saving a post. This crashes my dedicated website, as the new cache forms. I have definitely tracked this back to over-usage of the database, and I have 100-200 calls to the database when refreshing the page cache. This takes 2-4 seconds for a page to load. If there are bots on my website, this compounds until the database can’t handle the load. I then see 500 errors.

I’ve done extensive troubleshooting on this. I’ve disabled all custom code, but spectra, and the situation continues. I have many, highly configured web pages with many spectra blocks on each one.

I’ve optimized the tables for WordPress, but haven’t touched the plugin ones. The errors I receive are across the board slow queries, until the stack is overcome, and the database catches up. The one query I provided isn’t the only duplicate queries happening, just one of them.

I’m also seeing a situation where WP_Options Transiants are deleted then add again, instead of updated. This causes a table wide indexing, rather than a row specific indexing.

WP Rocket also plays a role in this, as their Pre-Loading and Critical CSS pages cause a large number of pages to start rendering in response to a cache clear. I’ve also had Alexa bots crash the website after a cache clear.

I also see massive issues with Spectra. Cache helps, but when that clears the website often goes down trying to render the pages. Part of the problem is the huge number of duplicate database calls that spectra uses. These then bog my dedicated server down, and cause the 500 errors I’m seeing. I filed a ticket on this today, as I can easily find more then a few SQL calls that get called over 15 times on a single page. The calls are not optimized, and are queries that return entire records.

I can say for certain that this issue doesn’t happen on my server until I start using more and more of the Spectra features. Usually my biggest landing pages (which I have many) are the ones that cause this the worst. Each one is using the huge number of queries repeatedly.

I’m also using Astra + Spectra.

I have a dedicated, and I run many websites. Some with thousands of hits a day. This spectra website is one of my slowest, until it caches. Then its fast.

FYI: This error is probably an AJAX call that is crashing and presenting a 401 error. The wp-ajax page will return a webpage and not a valid json, causing the error.

Turning on PHP log will show the error, and what is causing it.

@graham167 Is this on your own website, or the www.ads-software.com website?

This happens to me, frequently, either when my website goes down or when the service with spectra is not available.
