    I have few items in gd_place, I try to edit an icon for a place, the edit screen loads for a few mins then crashes the browser.

    From here:
    wp-admin/edit-tags.php?taxonomy=gd_placecategory&post_type=gd_place

    Crashes Firefox, IE, Chrome

    The link loads tinyMCE and it just kills the browser. Anyone else experiencing this? Right now I can’t edit the Category Icons associated with the place.

    To be specific this one pop ups a message and then if you hit ignore it kills the browser:
    wp-includes/js/tinymce/wp-tinymce.php?c=1&ver=4104-20140822:3

    Hi,

    do you have any plugin installed othe than GD and addons? In case, I’d try to disable them all to see if one of them is creating a conflict.

    Let us know,

    Hi Paulo,

    The only plugin that was active was “Varnish” which I disabled, still no go. The page loads slowly then crashes the browser.

    Hi,

    TinyMCE script is heavy and tends to slow down any page using it, but in this case it appears that the server doesn’t have enough resources to use it.

    What kind of hosting plan are you using?

    It takes 30+ seconds before even starting to load the 1st page elements.

    I’ve never seen this error before, I think that simply using a better performing server would solve it.

    Let us know,

    Thx

    This is the feedback I got from the provider “DreamHost.com”

    It’s not a standard feature of the taxonomy interface to use TinyMCE,
    which means the issue may lie in the way the Custom Post Type is calling
    it. However, as this is custom code, we’re really limited in our ability
    to debug why it acts the way it does. It does look like WordPress is
    running out of PHP memory. How much does GeoDirectory claim you need to
    run their plugin?

    hi Gamer,

    the fact that it is unusual, doesn’ìt mean it shouldn’t work.

    It works on any other website I’ve tested with our plugin on a great number of servers, which means they are giving you very little memory to excute your scripts.

    Are you on a low end shared hosting?

    If yes, that is the reason why it doesn’t work. I’d suggest moving to a faster hosting provider or upgrade your account with them to at least a decent VPS.

    Thanks

    It is a VPS hosting specially made for wordpress. So now you’re tossing the ball to the other end. No problem, I’ll play this tennis game.

    Given that it works for any other website I’ve tested using our plugin, I can say for sure it is a specific hosting problem.

    Otherwise this forum would be flooded with simlar thread, but if you do a search you will see that this is the only one.

    The fact that a VPS in unable to use TinyMCE on any given page (who cares where I’m trying to load it), it means that the server is faulty.

    If they are unable to fix it, possibly moving you to a server where you have a minimum of ram and cpu available, I suggest to move to wirenine.com or BlueHost. I know for sure that on their cheapest shared plans, TinyMCE works on that page flawlessly.

    Thanks

    That’s the only way to diagnose this issue. I’ll get a a/c on a different provider and setup there to see.
