Site hangs when attempting to edit listing from fronted

I’ve disabled the spinning pre-loader (an Enfold feature), but no change.

The problem most definitely occurred after starting my last support thread linked above. Perhaps Guust is right and I shouldn’t have started a new thread, but we’re here now.

Here’s a breakthrough:
After testing with preloading-spinner disabled, I changed GD > Business Settings > Field: Category (taxonomy) > Category Display Type > back to “Multi-select” from “Ajax-chained”, then attempted to edit a listing from front-end. Problem persisted, but at least it loaded the page right away (however the blue status bar in Safari showed the page was stalled for about a minute or 2).

The real breakthrough was when I checked my Facebook page: (https://www.facebook.com/locallogicpr)
Low-and-behold, all my listings in all CPT’s had just been reposted! That just might explain the server delay. I scrolled down the FB page and there was a second set of listings from only my “Health and Wellness” CPT. The first lot timestamped “Just now”, second lot timestamped “17 minutes ago”, which would correspond to the 2 times I clicked the front-end “Edit this Post” link. Not sure why the second lot was just of 1 CPT.

I kept scrolling down and saw a third set from 8 hrs ago when i tested at my office–this time all the listings in all CPT’s were posted. Scrolling down more, I see another set of all listings from my all CPT’s from 12 hrs ago (again at my office).

Just before submitting this update, I tested clicking the front-end “Edit this listing” link again (I’m a sucked for an active FB page, lol), and nothing was posted. I’m assuming FB has some sort of posting limitation since I noticed the most recent group of postings was just shy of the whole alphabetical listing.

I have not re-imported any listings since about 24 hrs ago (see below), so I have no idea why my listings are repeatedly being posted to my FB page (aside from apparently being triggered by clicking on “Edit this listing”).

So back to the original sequence of events, after Guust changed the Category Display Type setting from Multi-selct to Ajax-chained (Re: https://wpgeodirectory.com/support/topic/map-icons-keep-reverting-to-parent-category-icon/), I did deleted all gd_business listings and re-imported to see if the icon problem was fixed. I did the same for a few other CPT’s but not all.

I hope you this lengthy post help you pinpoint the problem.
