And that\u2019s precisely why many leading <a href=\"https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/global-companies-that-use-wordpress\/\">brands and companies are using WordPress<\/a> to power their websites in the first place. That being said, even this powerful CMS can experience occasional problems, happening for one reason or another. One of these issues is the WordPress admin dashboard becoming too slow, making it difficult for users to manage their content and access important settings. Some of the reasons why this problem may occur include using an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fixrunner.com\/update-php-version-wordpress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">older PHP version<\/a>, having an overloaded hosting server or an overwhelmed WordPress database, having too little WordPress memory, using plugins that consume too much processing power, and the list goes on.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]Luckily for you, however, the issue of your dashboard loading too slowly can be easily fixed if you are willing to try out a few different strategies \u2013 which is exactly what we\u2019ll show you how to do in this article.<br \/>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]Without further ado, <strong>here are some of the different methods you can implement in order to take care of your slow admin dashboard<\/strong> and to be able to manage your WordPress site quickly and effortlessly:[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;22px&#8221;]<ul class=\"qodef-unordered-list-item qodef-toc\">\n    <li>\n\t        <div class=\"qodef-ul-title-holder\">\n            <span class=\"qodef-ul-title-content\"><a href=\"#use-the-latest-php-version\">Make Sure That You\u2019re Using the Latest PHP Version<\/a><\/span>        <\/div>\n            <\/li>\n<\/ul>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;5px&#8221;]<ul class=\"qodef-unordered-list-item qodef-toc\">\n    <li>\n\t        <div class=\"qodef-ul-title-holder\">\n            <span class=\"qodef-ul-title-content\"><a href=\"#increase-the-limit-of-your-wordpress-memory\">Increase the Limit of Your WordPress Memory<\/a><\/span>        <\/div>\n            <\/li>\n<\/ul>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;5px&#8221;]<ul class=\"qodef-unordered-list-item qodef-toc\">\n    <li>\n\t        <div class=\"qodef-ul-title-holder\">\n            <span class=\"qodef-ul-title-content\"><a href=\"#find-the-plugins-that-may-be-slowing-your-site-down\">Find the Plugins that May Be Slowing Your Site Down<\/a><\/span>        <\/div>\n            <\/li>\n<\/ul>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;5px&#8221;]<ul class=\"qodef-unordered-list-item qodef-toc\">\n    <li>\n\t        <div class=\"qodef-ul-title-holder\">\n            <span class=\"qodef-ul-title-content\"><a href=\"#try-limiting-the-wordpress-heartbeat-api\">Try Limiting the WordPress Heartbeat API<\/a><\/span>        <\/div>\n            <\/li>\n<\/ul>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;5px&#8221;]<ul class=\"qodef-unordered-list-item qodef-toc\">\n    <li>\n\t        <div class=\"qodef-ul-title-holder\">\n            <span class=\"qodef-ul-title-content\"><a href=\"#optimize-your-wordpress-database-from-time-to-time\">Optimize Your WordPress Database from Time to Time<\/a><\/span>        <\/div>\n            <\/li>\n<\/ul>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;5px&#8221;]<ul class=\"qodef-unordered-list-item qodef-toc\">\n    <li>\n\t        <div class=\"qodef-ul-title-holder\">\n            <span class=\"qodef-ul-title-content\"><a href=\"#limit-the-amount-of-content-displayed-in-the-wordpress-admin\">Limit the Amount of Content Displayed in the WordPress Admin<\/a><\/span>        <\/div>\n            <\/li>\n<\/ul>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;5px&#8221;]<ul class=\"qodef-unordered-list-item qodef-toc\">\n    <li>\n\t        <div class=\"qodef-ul-title-holder\">\n            <span class=\"qodef-ul-title-content\"><a href=\"#upgrade-your-hosting\">Upgrade Your Hosting<\/a><\/span>        <\/div>\n            <\/li>\n<\/ul>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;80px&#8221;][vc_widget_sidebar sidebar_id=&#8221;new-top-picks-banner&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;80px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"qodef-h4\"><a id=\"use-the-latest-php-version\"><\/a>Make Sure That You\u2019re Using the Latest PHP Version<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]While WordPress is built using the PHP programming language, PHP itself is constantly evolving. So, the PHP version used on your WordPress site may not necessarily be the latest one. Also, it\u2019s needless to say that aside from providing more security and stability, the latest PHP version can also come with overall performance enhancements, allowing you to handle more requests per second than the older versions, among other things. So, if you\u2019re using one of the older PHP versions, there is a chance that your admin dashboard may be working slower than you\u2019d expect. Therefore, <strong>it might be best that you update to the most recent version<\/strong> to help speed it up.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]Of course, before you go ahead and update your PHP version, you should see if there\u2019s a need to do so in the first place by checking out which PHP version you\u2019re using on your site. To do this, you should <strong>head to <em>Tools &gt;&gt; Site Health<\/em><\/strong>. Once there, <strong>in the <em>Status<\/em> tab, you should see a list of things that you could improve<\/strong> in order to enhance the performance of your WordPress site. If there\u2019s a need to update your PHP, you should see a message that says something like this:[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;50px&#8221;]<div class=\"qodef-single-image-holder   qodef-has-border \">\n    <div class=\"qodef-si-inner\" >\n                                    <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"969\" height=\"649\" src=\"https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Site-Health-Status.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Site Health Status\" srcset=\"https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Site-Health-Status.jpg 969w, https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Site-Health-Status-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Site-Health-Status-768x514.jpg 768w, https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Site-Health-Status-620x415.jpg 620w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 969px) 100vw, 969px\" \/>                        <\/div>\n<\/div>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;38px&#8221;][vc_column_text]Now, if it turns out that you need to update your version of PHP, then we highly suggest that you perform a backup of your WordPress site first. You can either <a href=\"https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/how-to-backup-wordpress-database\/\">back up your WordPress database manually<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/wordpress-backup-with-updraftplus-plugin\/\">create a backup using a plugin like UpdraftPlus<\/a>. This will help ensure that you have the option to switch back to the previous website version and prevent any potential data loss in case something goes wrong after the update.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]Aside from performing a database backup, you should also make sure that you <a href=\"https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/how-to-update-plugins\/\">update your plugins<\/a> and themes as well so as to avoid having any compatibility issues later.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]Now, while most hosting providers will allow you to update your PHP version, you should know that different providers also offer different ways to do this. We recommend that you check out the page that contains links to <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/WordPress\/servehappy-resources\/blob\/master\/tutorials\/hosting-specific\/tutorials-en.md\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hosting-specific tutorials<\/a> and find the hosting you are using to learn how you can update your PHP version.

This is especially the case with big-scale websites that have multiple processes running at once.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]Therefore, to solve this issue, you can try increasing the standard PHP memory limit (of 32 MB) by <strong>accessing and editing your wp-config.php file<\/strong>. First, you need to access your file using the word processor software, like Microsoft Word or Notepad, for example). Then, add the following code into the file:[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<pre class=\"EnlighterJSRAW\" data-enlighter-language=\"generic\">define(\u2018WP_MEMORY_LIMIT\u2019, \u2018your memory limit number\u2019);<\/pre>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]The \u201cyour memory limit number\u201d within the code stands for the memory limit you want to use to increase your PHP memory limit (like 128 or 256, for example).[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]Once you save your file, make sure to upload the edited wp-config.php file using the File Transfer Protocol (FTP), like FileZilla. For more information on <a href=\"https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/how-to-use-ftp\/\">how to use FTP<\/a>, we suggest that you check out our article on the same subject.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]With all this being said, there are some hosting providers that may not allow you to increase the PHP memory limit on your own. If this is true for your hosting provider, make sure to contact them and ask them to do this in your stead.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;68px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"qodef-h4\"><a id=\"find-the-plugins-that-may-be-slowing-your-site-down\"><\/a>Find the Plugins that May Be Slowing Your Site Down<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]While using too many plugins may cause your website to work slower than you\u2019d like it to, the number of plugins itself is not necessarily the issue. However, if you have plugins that are resource-intensive and therefore put too much strain on your WordPress system and its processes, then you might want to consider weeding them out. But first, you need to figure out the plugins that may be the culprit. This can be easily done using the free plugin called <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/query-monitor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Query Monitor<\/a>. The plugin itself puts a very little impact on the page loading time as well as memory usage, and it will allow you to find out which plugins may cause your admin dashboard to be slow.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]After installing the plugin, you simply need to <strong>click on the Query Monitor settings and find <em>Queries &gt;&gt; Queries by Component<\/em><\/strong>.

If it sends too many requests at once, the CPU usage can increase, and in turn, this can significantly lower the speed of your WordPress admin. Therefore, we suggest that you try limiting the frequency of the Heartbeat API and its requests with the help of a plugin.<br \/>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]We suggest installing the <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/heartbeat-control\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Heartbeat Control<\/a> plugin by WP Rocket for this task. Having over 100,000 active installations, this plugin is certainly a popular and great choice for quickly managing the frequency of your WordPress heartbeat API. You can limit or completely stop the Heartbeat API activity. Alternatively, you can add rules for certain locations only (like disabling the API on your admin dashboard or page\/post editor only).[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;28px&#8221;][vc_column_text]After installing and activating the Heartbeat Control plugin, you should <strong>access <em>Settings &gt;&gt; Heartbeat Control<\/em> and then use the \u201cGeneral settings\u201d tab to either modify or disable the API<\/strong> from the specific area of your site.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;50px&#8221;]<div class=\"qodef-single-image-holder   qodef-has-border \">\n    <div class=\"qodef-si-inner\" >\n                                    <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"969\" height=\"546\" src=\"https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Heartbeat-Control-General-Settings.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Heartbeat Control General Settings\" srcset=\"https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Heartbeat-Control-General-Settings.jpg 969w, https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Heartbeat-Control-General-Settings-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Heartbeat-Control-General-Settings-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Heartbeat-Control-General-Settings-620x349.jpg 620w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 969px) 100vw, 969px\" \/>                        <\/div>\n<\/div>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;38px&#8221;][vc_column_text]If you choose the <em>Modify Heartbeat<\/em> option, you can simply move the slider and choose your preferred frequency at which the API will run requests (in seconds).[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;50px&#8221;]<div class=\"qodef-single-image-holder   qodef-has-border \">\n    <div class=\"qodef-si-inner\" >\n                                    <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"969\" height=\"613\" src=\"https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Modify-Heartbeat.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Modify Heartbeat\" srcset=\"https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Modify-Heartbeat.jpg 969w, https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Modify-Heartbeat-300x190.jpg 300w, https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Modify-Heartbeat-768x486.jpg 768w, https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Modify-Heartbeat-620x392.jpg 620w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 969px) 100vw, 969px\" \/>                        <\/div>\n<\/div>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;38px&#8221;][vc_column_text]Keep in mind, however, that disabling this API altogether may result in some unintentional content losses (due to a lack of auto-save).

Or, it might not necessarily be a bad hosting service, but rather that your site has outgrown it and needs a change. So, we suggest that you <strong>consider upgrading to a hosting plan that fits your requirements better compared to the one you\u2019re currently using<\/strong>. Also, make sure that the <a href=\"https:\/\/qodeinteractive.com\/magazine\/how-to-choose-wordpress-hosting-provider\/\">hosting provider you choose<\/a> puts an accent on having solid website speed and optimal performance overall. Some of our recommendations when it comes to WordPress hosting services include <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluehost.com\/wordpress\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bluehost<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.siteground.com\/wordpress-hosting.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SiteGround<\/a>, to name a few.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;68px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"qodef-h4\">Wrapping Things Up<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Every now and then, the WordPress admin panel can load too slowly, making it difficult for you to effectively use and run your website. That being said, this issue can be easily solved if you opt for using some (if not all) of the above-suggested methods. So, consider updating your PHP version, boosting your PHP memory limit, and optimizing your WordPress database, among other strategies. And if all else fails, consider switching to a better and stronger hosting plan to ensure optimal site speed and performance. By doing so, you will certainly be able to manage your WordPress site in a much more efficient manner.<br \/>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you having problems with a slow WordPress admin dashboard?
