Major slowdowns in the WordPress dashboard

[beatricelucaci]

I’ve been experiencing major slowdowns in my WordPress dashboard for several days.

What usually takes 1 or 2 seconds, such as clicking on the plugins tab to display the list of plugins, was taking between 10 and 20 seconds, in other words, 10 to 20 times longer. And it was the same for any action I did in the dashboard.

I contacted my host who after analysis told me that by deactivating all the plugins, the slowdown disappeared and that the problem did not come from the hosting.

So I had to find the culprit among the plugins.

I deactivated them all by renaming the “plugins” folder temporarily. Then I reactivated them one by one.

It turns out that “Image Photo Gallery Final Tiles Grid” is the last plugin I reactivated and at that very moment, the slowness started again.
