Title: Gateway Timeout Error Last modified: April 11, 2017 --- # Gateway Timeout Error * [stircrazi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stircrazi/) * (@stircrazi) * [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/gateway-timeout-error-2/) * Hey Daniel, [@danielkanchev](https://wordpress.org/support/users/danielkanchev/) * I am hoping you can help me out with this timeout error message. See below. * Over the past three weeks I have run into the following error message when clicking on my dashboard links (plugins, pages) in my WordPress site, bodywearformen.com: 504 Gateway Timeout Gateway Timeout The gateway did not receive a timely response from the upstream server or application. I reached out to Siteground (ticket # 2190283) who completed a scan, noticed that the w3 total cache plugin was constantly trying to load information over and over, so they deactivated the plugin and removed its configuration. That did not fix the problem. They recommended that I install their plug in, SG Optimizer, but even that continues to time out when I try to install it. I basically cannot do anything in my site now without this error message, please advise on how to fix this problem.  * Hope you can help me get this resolved.
