Hi @zrpr
It’s likely that the attribute filters might be causing an overload due to numerous attributes or products, or a conflict with another plugin or theme. Can you walk us through the steps done to encounter the error?
In the meantime, I also recommend deactivating all plugins except WooCommerce, and if the issue does not happen after deactivating all plugins, reactivate each plugin to see which might be having a conflict with it.
Please also share the following, so that we can better understand your site’s current environment.
- System Status Report: navigate to WooCommerce → Status. Select
Get system report and then Copy for support.
- Fatal Error log: Share a copy of any fatal error log found under WooCommerce → Status → Logs.

or
like this: /product-category/skin-care/hydrating/?filter_att-efficacy=anti-ageing,anti-allergy,moisturizing,prevent-hair-tangling,skin-repairing,transparent&filter_att-type=serum&query_type_att-efficacy=or&query_type_att-type=or

Hello @zrpr,

I suggest you check out Jetpack, it’s a fantastic all-in-one solution that helps protect your site from spam, brute force attacks, and much more. Plus, it also takes care of backups.
The best part? There’s no complex setup involved. All you need to do is install the plugin and activate the security feature.
If you need a bit more context, I’d recommend checking out this guide: https://jetpack.com/features/security/brute-force-attack-protection/.
