  • Hey all, this is what fixed it for me:

    Put an .htaccess file in the root directory of your WP install. Open the .htaccess and replace any code in it with this:

    <head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
</head>

# BEGIN WordPress

# END WordPress

    Let me know if that helped!

    Ok guys and gals I got it figured out.

    I had a test site setup before the backend got slow. This install was blazing fast on the back-end.

    The test site is using WP 2.8.6. The root folder of the WP install had an .htaccess file in there where 2.9 (the install with the slow back-end) did not.

    Out of curiosity, I copied the .htaccess file from 2.8.6 into the root of 2.9 and BAM -NO MORE SLOWDOWN on the back-end!

    While searching this past week for the solution, a few people and suggested to through a .htaccess file in the root with some code (forget what it was, but it wasn’t what is in the 2.8.6 .htaccess.)

    So anyway, here is the code that is in the .htaccess which fixed my slow back-end problem:

    <head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
</head>

# BEGIN WordPress

# END WordPress

    Hope that helps others!

    Well, came in this morning and now it is two different components that are slugs: admin_notices (takes 60secs to load) and load_feed_engine (120 seconds)

    In reply to: 500 Server Error

    I was able to get around the 500 error by bumping up the timeout setting to something crazy.

    However, even though the page will now eventually load correctly, it takes forever (~120 seconds).

    I’ve had a few wordpress sites running on my server for over a year without this problem. Just recently I created another site but used a much newer WP install (~2.8). I upgraded to the latest one and still have the problem.

    It could be a coincidence, I’m not trying to railroad WP, but thought I would throw that out there.

    WPTuner revealed that ‘admin_init’ is the component that’s taking its sweet time: https://imgur.com/iMrF3.gif

    Does that help pinpoint anything?

    The site is hosted on our own boxes. I have two other wordpress sites running and have never run into this problem (although they are older versions of wordpress (2.6ish?)

    I believe the only difference on this site is we put the wordpress content on one box which reads the mysql database from another box.

    Although from looking at the .gif it seems that the SQL performance is fine.

    Also, I’m not the IT guy here so I only have limited access to the servers (and try to understand the syntax the best I can). However, any ideas you guys have I’ll be able to pass along.

    Thank you!

    Same issue here.

    I was using 2.8 and upgraded to 2.9.1 and still have the problem.

    The site works fine, it’s just on the back-end where it takes forever to load certain pages.

    For instance, I can click ‘add new’ (post) and the next page comes right up. However, if I click ‘plugins’ it takes over 60 seconds to load (I was getting FastCGI error 500 pages, but after bumping up the timeout to something ridiculous it works, just painfully slow)

    The only clue I’ve gotten so far is from using WPTuner. For the long loading clicks I get a yellow highlighted, “(marker)admin_init with a (%Time) of 99”.

    So admin_init seems to be the culprit, but what is it? I’m going to keep searching, but I thought I’d post this up incase anyone can help.

    Thank you!

    In reply to: New Plugin: Role Scoper

    Hi all, I’m having some trouble with role-scoper 1.0.1 and 1.0.0 (however, 0.9.27 works fine).

    As soon as I activate the plugin, I get a white page with this error:

    WordPress database error BLOB/TEXT column ‘group_name’ can’t have a default value for query ALTER TABLE wpcdgitest_groups_rs MODIFY COLUMN group_name text NOT NULL default ” made by activate_plugin, do_action, call_user_func_array, scoper_activate, scoper_db_setup, scoper_update_schema
    WordPress database error BLOB/TEXT column ‘group_description’ can’t have a default value for query ALTER TABLE wpcdgitest_groups_rs MODIFY COLUMN group_description text NOT NULL default ” made by activate_plugin, do_action, call_user_func_array, scoper_activate, scoper_db_setup, scoper_update_schema

    Sorry for the lack of formatting, but that is how it kicks out in firefox.

    Here are my server settings:

    * Operating System : WINNT
    * Server : Microsoft-IIS/6.0
    * Memory usage : 14.26 MByte
    * MYSQL Version : 5.0.27-community-nt
    * SQL Mode : STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION
    * PHP Version : 5.1.6
    * PHP Safe Mode : Off
    * PHP Allow URL fopen : On
    * PHP Memory Limit : 128M
    * PHP Max Upload Size : 10M
    * PHP Max Post Size : 8M
    * PHP Max Script Execute Time : 3600s
    * PHP Exif support : Yes ( V1.4 )
    * PHP IPTC support : Yes
    * PHP XML support : Yes

    I’m using WordPress 2.7.1

    What changed from role-scoper 0.9.27 to 1.0.0 that would make it throw like this?

    Thanks!

    Another thing to add:

    I extracted my imagerotator.zip into, “…/wp-admin/uploads/imagerotator/*zip contents*”.

    And even though I pointed to that exact path in the settings, it still would not work.

    I had to dump all the contents into the root of “…/uploads” for it to work.

    Any theme will work, all you need to do is get a good gallery plugin like Nextgen Gallery https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/nextgen-gallery/ and load up your pages.

    Another thing to do is set the thumbnail sizes to be very large in the gallery plugin.

    I have this exact problem. One morning for no apparent reason my main loop page says, “Not Found. Sorry, but you are looking for something that is not here.”

    I reverted to the stock version of the theme and have the same problem. It even does this when I load up other themes with a loop index.

    No settings were changed on the backend. Would this have something to do with the mySQL database being messed up?

    Please help!

    Hot damn, that is exactly what I needed. Thank you!

    Is there any way to list all of the images, ie [tags=0] or [tags=*]?

    I saw the [slideshow=0] trick, is there a way to do that for galleries? I tried [gallery=0] but it didn’t work.

    Thanks again!

    I have a problem where the admin can view private posts, but not private pages.

    Anyone ran into this?

    Edit: I’m using WordPress 2.6.1

    Scratch that previous post. -I still have the problem.

    Admin can view private *posts*, however, cannot view private *pages*.

    What is the deal?

    (@rad_thundercat)

    Figured it out:

    I had two users setup as admin. As soon as I knocked the other one out, everything worked right.

    I am trying to figure this out as well.

    I want to give my ‘blogroll’ bullets for each link.

    I can see “.widgettitle, .widgetwidget_links, and #linkcat-2” in the source, but I can’t find any of those digging through the style.css.

    Anyone know?
