Hi James,
Just taking a quick look at the Currency Switcher plugin and it looks like the problem is the number of products you’re passing in. The plugin uses php’s include() to render the output for each price. This is a pretty normal practice (P3 does it, too) but it doesn’t scale to 1,000 prices well.
I can’t be 100% certain without running an xdebug profile, but php’s include() is known to be slow. It has to read the file (which means permission checks, file system access) and then parse it and convert it to object code and execute it. Using a recent version of PHP or an object cache (like XCache, APC, Zend Optimizer+, etc.) may help this.
Hope this helps! Good luck!
Hi Kurt, thanks for the info but i am not very tech savvy so i think i am going to need to bring in a professional. i have run P3 a few more times and the currency switcher does not always have the same impact… Very confusing but thanks for your input
Hello James! @james-longly
Thank you Kurt! @kurtpayne
Let’s think together. Plugin works only for products that are currently displayed on the page (it does not matter how many products in the store total) I think you do not displays all 1,000 products on one page:). If the conversion price plugin queries the database only once(for all products on page), then using this hook woocommerce_get_price and doing simple math(it’s very fast).
Make sure that you use only one plugin for conversion of prices. Maybe you use some sort of plug-in, which competes with Woof code
Hello
Some notices, Woocs uses recount on the fly without requests to the data base as all data loaded into the memory by get_option function which calls only one time. So I have an idea about competitive script only.
Install please https://wordpress.org/plugins/query-monitor/ this plugin and with it help you will see which script takes resources …
Hi,
thanks @pavloborysenko and @realmag777 but i am afraid i don’t understand what you are talking about as i am not a technical person – i am just the website owner trying to work out why it is running so slowly. i installed the query monitor plugin but i dont know how to interpret the information it gives me.
As i said before i think i am going to need to employ an expert to look into it for me
here are the warnings the query monitor gave me btw
