My site started running very slowly, and the animations were very choppy as though my computer was overloaded. So I tried with different systems and networks, and learned that it was definitely a problem with the site. Eventually I started getting 500 Internal Server errors.
Through trial and error I learned that the site would run smoothly if I disabled disabled “Boxzilla” and “Zen Menu Logic”, which is weird because I’ve had these plugins for months! I removed the plugins completely, and instead tried to use “Popup Maker”. I started using it, and the site was still working!
But after a few hours of working in Popup Maker, the same problem started to come back… the site was slow, the pages would never finish loading, and I got 500 Internal Server errors again.
Now, if I disable Popup Maker everything works well again.
Please, help me understand what’s wrong and how I can fix it. I’d really like to be able to use Popup Maker.
I’ll leave access to the site and FTP in the private content so that you may take a look, and hopefully identify/resolve the problem.
Thank you my friends!
I’d like to just emphasize that unlike a formatting question, or CSS, or something… this is really crippling my website.
I THINK I FIXED IT!
It’s working for now, but man I hope it stays that way…
For those who may be experiencing something similar:
I was creating pop-ups that with iframe tags that would load another page from the site. This seemed to create a memory leak or something that would cause the site stall. I am no longer loading pages in my pop-ups, and it seems to be working :)
