Hi all,
I hope you can help me out with this, because it's really irritating. When I have simple:press activated, my plugins.php admin page in wordpress loads painfully slowly, to the extent that it's very difficult to do anything with my plugins. I have no idea why this might be, and it's fine when Simple:Press Forum is not activated. I'm using Wordpress 2.5.1 and Simple:Press Forum 3.1 or whatever is most recent (don't have time to check on my plugins page cause it won't load ;)). I really like the plugin and it would suck to switch, so if anyone has any ideas about why this would be happening, please let me know.
Thanks a lot,
Kath

could you please provide some additional detail… this is not something we have heard of before… do you have lots of users? lots of groups/forums? many permission sets?

…and does this happen ALL the time? yesterday, today, this evening? Is it constant?
Like many plugins, it does phone home but that should only slow maters of there is a problem with my server…

I don't have very many forums, users, permission sets or posts. (1 group, 5 forums, 26 users)
And yes, it's very consistent right now. Whenever Simple:Press Forum is activated, the plugins page takes a really long time to load, to the extent that I will have to leave it alone and do something else. It started probably two or three versions of Simple:Press Forum ago, when I had wordpress 2.3.2 (I think) installed. I've since installed wp2.5 and wp2.5.1 and upgraded simple:press to the most recent version. Still have the problem.
Exactly what happens (or what I can see of what happens) is that the page starts loading and loads the first plugin and up to the “activate” link for the second plugin. Then there's a hang up of several minutes (haven't timed it) and then it loads up to the simple:press plugin, and then eventually the simple:press plugin row and the rest of the page loads. I don't have the problem when I don't have Simple:Press activated, and I do have it when I only have Simple:Press activated.
Is it possible that some of the security settings I have on my server might have something to do with it? If so I am not going to be able to do a lot about it, it's a university server. Would it be all right for me to comment out the 'phoning home' part of the code and see if that fixes it (don't know enough PHP to pick that out on my own, but if you could let me know where it is …)
Also, it's only the plugins.php page that's slow. The forum and all forum management pages are fine.

Yes - comment it out you must. My guess is that it is a timeout.
You want the file: sf-admin-header.php which you will find in the /admin folder.
Line 14:
add_action('after_plugin_row', 'sf_check_plugin_version' );
just comment it out.

You're welcome. I guess your IT guys have really battened down the hatches there.

I was also encountering a slow plugins page and found this solution to work; preventing Simple:Press from phoning home.
I'm running WordPress and Simple:Press localized with WAMP, so this could contribute to this particular issue.
Thanks!
