Title: Slow Loading Last modified: August 31, 2016 --- # Slow Loading * Resolved [TamerDesigns](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dribgib/) * (@dribgib) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slow-loading-40/) * This plugin makes my site load EXTREMELY slow when used with Buddypress * 18 seconds on initial load – then 1s additional for the remaining styles/plugins/ etc. (used network tab in chrome dev) * Goes away immediately after disabling the plugin – 2-3s load times. I’ve tried disabling all styles, javascript, text editor, etc. within USP – nothing changes the load time. * Any ideas here? Working with multisite and SSL functionality on a complex buddypress site. * Everything works 100% though – great plugin just need to fix the speed issue. Something’s snagging and the console isn’t telling me anything. * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-submitted-posts/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-submitted-posts/) Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) * Plugin Author [Jeff Starr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/specialk/) * (@specialk) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slow-loading-40/#post-7047348) * The plugin does not support Multisite.. most likely there is an issue with looking up options and whatnot using regular WP tags (just guessing). No performance issue on regular WP. * Thread Starter [TamerDesigns](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dribgib/) * (@dribgib) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slow-loading-40/#post-7047353) * so weird – I started deleting files in the backend to see if I could isolate if it was a particular file causing the issue. Needless to say it ended up not working – but when I refreshed the page a final time (after restoring everything)– it now works fine and loads fast * Odd eh? * Plugin Author [Jeff Starr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/specialk/) * (@specialk) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slow-loading-40/#post-7047357) * Yeh, so you are saying that it works on Multisite? * Thread Starter [TamerDesigns](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dribgib/) * (@dribgib) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slow-loading-40/#post-7047364) * Oh yeah it sure does! * I also found the snippet causing the hangup – when I comment this out – it works * in corefunctions.php * function usp_auto_display_images * Thread Starter [TamerDesigns](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dribgib/) * (@dribgib) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slow-loading-40/#post-7047366) * Can i leave that commented out? I don’t need auto display images * Plugin Author [Jeff Starr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/specialk/) * (@specialk) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slow-loading-40/#post-7047374) * That’s awesome, I’ll have to retest with Multisite and maybe reclassify it as compatible. * For the auto-display images, that function should fire only when the option, “ Images Auto-Display” is enabled in the plugin settings. So optimally you would just set that option to “Do not auto-display submitted images” (i.e., disable) and done. In general it’s not a good idea to modify core files of plugins, themes, or WP itself. * Thread Starter [TamerDesigns](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dribgib/) * (@dribgib) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slow-loading-40/#post-7047387) * True that – and it is unchecked – but for some reason works well when I comment it out. May want to take a peek at it if you’ve got free time. * Appreciate the support – solid plugin. * Plugin Author [Jeff Starr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/specialk/) * (@specialk) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slow-loading-40/#post-7047388) * Thanks, will definitely investigate next update – on the todo list. * If you have time to rate the plugin, I would appreciate it. * Thanks again for the feedback, will help to improve the plugin. * Thread Starter [TamerDesigns](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dribgib/) * (@dribgib) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slow-loading-40/#post-7047400) * Yep – will do – bought your pro version too * By chance do you know where that code exists in the pro version files? I know you can’t support if I modify but same issues with the pro version – need to find that snippet :p * Plugin Author [Jeff Starr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/specialk/) * (@specialk) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/slow-loading-40/#post-7047401) * Thanks, I appreciate it. * For help with Pro, please contact me directly via Plugin Planet: * [https://plugin-planet.com/](https://plugin-planet.com/) * (scroll to footer for contact form) * The reason is that the forums here at WordPress.org are for free plugins only.
