Given how the WordPress system works, the database gets larger with each image and in not the most efficient way. However, despite this, databases with thousands of images are generally still pretty good to go as long as the server they are on is built to support any system with 6 thousand products, whether it be WordPress or not. WordPress isn’t remarkably less efficient than other CMS platforms.
However, as Songquan and George said – it is 3rd party plugins that cause a large number of potential issues. Coding efficiently takes a great deal more effort than just getting the job done, and statistic gathering plugins (as mentioned) can be problematic and add unnecessary overhead.
I strongly recommend you keep your system running only with the base plugins you need for complete functionality and try not to use optimizers or statistic gathering systems – rely on Google Analytics for all your stats (just as you would a website before WP came around) and make your install lean.
In essence, WordPress is not an operating system – it is a content management system. Do not add a million different things to it to create a web-based smartphone. You can play with that sort of stuff on a separate WordPress install, but on your main one, lighter is better. Focus on marketing, SEO, the blog, and the product sales and presentation. That’s it.
Can you look at your system specs in the Symbiostock settings area and let me know what PHP version you are using?
Hey Matt – that is a weird error. I will look into it and get back to you.
Hi Angie,
SNI is a very standardized protocol and all the Symbiostock platform sites (even this one) use the same SSL system that your site will use. We’ve never encountered an issue yet. That warning not relevant to your day to day activities.
Also note that the SSL certificate will not successfully issue unless your domain points to the Symbiostock Hosting server, so make sure you update your nameservers and it has propagated before creating your free SSL certificate.
It is not yet certified compatible with PHP7. What that means is it probably will work, but we can’t guarantee it.
Hi Arik,
The problem with the processor is likely server related as that error message means that at some point the processor was run but hit some sort of fatal error that prevented it from continuing. This is 95% of the time because it ran out of memory or timed out. I just ran the link you sent and see that the script does not complete. If you click ‘enable error reporting’ in the system menu then run it, if you see any errors post them here and we can then diagnose further.
As for Symzio, once you get your processor running properly then we can see. Symzio only adds images once their thumbnails have been generated and if your processor is not running it’s possible the thumbnails have not been created. There are also other filters that exclude images.
That’s your issue – a majority of metadata reading requires exec access.
In your Symbiostock Settings System tab, do you have exec enabled?
Thanks for that Chris – I’m closing this thread as it is no longer relevant as the issue is rectified through plugins like the one you mentioned.
No worries – I don’t ever look at such things as being stupid. Everyone is at a different stage of experience when it comes to these things and it’s all a learning curve. 🙂
Do you have the debug variable enabled in your wp-config.php? The unexpected line output is not a problem and happens during activation at times if your debug variable is enabled (maybe even if not but has no bearing on operation).
Those other warnings also have no bearing on operation and are just warnings.
Try disabling the debug variable and work with the plugin as normal. If you experience any issues let us know.
Hi Matt,
Adding Symbiostock should pose no issue. This is not a tried and tested feature, however adding Symbiostock does not alter or change non-Symbiostock products so you can add it, test it, and disable it at your leisure if indeed any issues arise. Also note that if you do encounter any issues, post them here and we will prioritize rectifying them although I do not anticipate many problems.
Problem appears to have solved itself Stephanie. These things happen?
I’ve reduced your limit to the normal ones again with the assumption that this was just a temporary hiccup.
Thanks for letting us know.
