Title: Plugin spawns post requests constantly Last modified: December 19, 2023 --- # Plugin spawns post requests constantly * Resolved [incodeservice1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/incodeservice1/) * (@incodeservice1) * [2 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-spawns-post-requests-constantly/) * Hi, we use the plugin on our website but from the last days it appears spawns post requests constantly, exhausting all the RAM provided by the hosting service. This is an exemple: * ```wp-block-code 4.138.64.204 ghazalparis.com - [19/Dec/2023:15:52:44 +0000] "POST /en/wp-json/mailchimp-for-woocommerce/v1/member-sync?auth=ba09421297bb665fb71a345f319d3a57 HTTP/2.0" 499 0 "-" "MailChimp" | TLSv1.3 | - 6.818 6.817 - 0 NC:000000 UP:-DT 35.196.249.1 ghazalparis.com - [19/Dec/2023:15:52:45 +0000] "POST /en/wp-json/mailchimp-for-woocommerce/v1/member-sync?auth=24e64e6d7902c5dbd5a48d410ee38806 HTTP/2.0" 500 89602 "-" "MailChimp" | TLSv1.3 | 1.114 1.173 1.173 - 0 NC:000000 UP:-DT 34.139.177.101 ghazalparis.com - [19/Dec/2023:15:52:45 +0000] "POST /en/wp-json/mailchimp-for-woocommerce/v1/member-sync?auth=24e64e6d7902c5dbd5a48d410ee38806 HTTP/2.0" 500 89602 "-" "MailChimp" | TLSv1.3 | 0.136 0.136 0.135 - 0 NC:000000 UP:-DT 34.138.64.204 ghazalparis.com - [19/Dec/2023:15:52:45 +0000] "POST /en/wp-json/mailchimp-for-woocommerce/v1/member-sync?auth=24e64e6d7902c5dbd5a48d410ee38806 HTTP/2.0" 500 89602 "-" "MailChimp" | TLSv1.3 | 1.739 1.799 1.798 - 0 NC:000000 UP:-DT 34.138.64.204 ghazalparis.com - [19/Dec/2023:15:52:45 +0000] "POST /en/wp-json/mailchimp-for-woocommerce/v1/member-sync?auth=3c3bf51e049216ec902b88403a56de4a HTTP/2.0" 500 89602 "-" "MailChimp" | TLSv1.3 | 1.105 1.105 1.105 - 0 NC:000000 UP:-DT 35.196.249.1 ghazalparis.com - [19/Dec/2023:15:52:45 +0000] "POST /en/wp-json/mailchimp-for-woocommerce/v1/member-sync?auth=4f9f0208b118d0762cdac4074e9e784c HTTP/2.0" 500 89602 "-" "MailChimp" | TLSv1.3 | 0.770 0.770 0.771 - 0 NC:000000 UP:-DT 34.75.225.48 ghazalparis.com - [19/Dec/2023:15:52:45 +0000] "POST /en/wp-json/mailchimp-for-woocommerce/v1/member-sync?auth=24e64e6d7902c5dbd5a48d410ee38806 HTTP/2.0" 500 89602 "-" "MailChimp" | TLSv1.3 | 1.194 1.194 1.193 - 0 NC:000000 UP:-DT 34.139.177.101 ghazalparis.com - [19/Dec/2023:15:52:45 +0000] "POST /en/wp-json/mailchimp-for-woocommerce/v1/member-sync?auth=24e64e6d7902c5dbd5a48d410ee38806 HTTP/2.0" 500 89602 "-" "MailChimp" | TLSv1.3 | 2.894 2.954 2.953 - 0 NC:000000 UP:-DT 34.139.177.101 ghazalparis.com - [19/Dec/2023:15:52:45 +0000] "POST /en/wp-json/mailchimp-for-woocommerce/v1/member-sync?auth=24e64e6d7902c5dbd5a48d410ee38806 HTTP/2.0" 500 89602 "-" "MailChimp" | TLSv1.3 | 0.885 0.885 0.884 - 0 NC:000000 UP:-DT 35.196.249.1 ghazalparis.com - [19/Dec/2023:15:52:45 +0000] "POST /en/wp-json/mailchimp-for-woocommerce/v1/member-sync?auth=24e64e6d7902c5dbd5a48d410ee38806 HTTP/2.0" 500 89602 "-" "MailChimp" | TLSv1.3 | 1.130 1.191 1.191 - 0 NC:000000 UP:-DT 34.138.93.88 ghazalparis.com - [19/Dec/2023:15:52:45 +0000] "POST /en/wp-json/mailchimp-for-woocommerce/v1/member-sync?auth=24e64e6d7902c5dbd5a48d410ee38806 HTTP/2.0" 500 89602 "-" "MailChimp" | TLSv1.3 | 0.007 0.008 0.008 - 0 NC:000000 UP:-DT 34.75.225.48 ghazalparis.com - [19/Dec/2023:15:52:45 +0000] "POST /en/wp-json/mailchimp-for-woocommerce/v1/member-sync?auth=24e64e6d7902c5dbd5a48d410ee38806 HTTP/2.0" 500 89602 "-" "MailChimp" | TLSv1.3 | 0.007 0.007 0.008 - 0 NC:000000 UP:-DT ``` * The hosting provider suggested we ask the plugin developers, do you have any idea why this happens?

I’ve reached out to one of our developers to look directly into your store to see if we can provide further insight. Thanks for your patience. * Plugin Support [Jordan Rich](https://wordpress.org/support/users/builtbyjordan/) * (@builtbyjordan) * [2 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-spawns-post-requests-constantly/#post-17296842) * We recommend completing a plugin/theme conflict audit. As this may uncover any issues that could be causing the excessive use of server resources. I’ve included some directions on how to accomplish that below: 1. Verify that you are using the latest version of the Mailchimp for WooCommerce plugin. 2. Switch to the default WooCommerce theme and deactivate all plugins except WooCommerce and Mailchimp for WooCommerce. Then, test the scenario again, preferably in a staging environment. 3. Test for conflicts by following the guide provided by WooCommerce on fixing theme and plugin conflicts. You can find the guide here: [WooCommerce: Fixing Theme and Plugin Conflicts](https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/how-to-test-for-conflicts/) 4. Review any log errors in the plugin’s logs tab or enable the Remote Diagnostics setting so that the plugin engineers can investigate further. 5. If you use a caching service like Cloudflare, add an exclusion path for the Mailchimp for WooCommerce plugin to prevent caching conflicts. Set the exclusion path at the server level by creating a rule for the “URL Path” such as `/wp- content/plugins/mailchimp-for-woocommerce/`. 6. If the problem persists, try uninstalling and reinstalling the plugin from scratch. * Plugin Support [khungate](https://wordpress.org/support/users/khungate/) * (@khungate) * [2 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-spawns-post-requests-constantly/#post-17310145) * Hi there, we just wanted to check back with you to see if this was still a problem and you were able to work through the previously recommended steps to resolve.
