    Hello, forgive me for my dumb question but I am not a programmer. I am having issues with my scheduled actions running slow with many of them timing out or failing. These are image uploads when someone visits the site and a product that hasn’t been looked at before. Basically we import the product but not the image right away…as it comes later. In looking around found this plugin. Do I simply install the plugin and it will start to work on its own or do you install and then have to run commands or change code?

  • Hi @adviceassistant – Action Scheduler is actually already packaged into WooCommerce. If you upload the standalone Action Scheduler plugin it will basically keep things the same, unless there’s a newer version that hasn’t been fully updated in WooCommerce core quite yet.

    If you’re seeing a lot of timeouts, that’s typically related to an issue with your site’s max_execution_time. While increasing that through your hosting provider may provide some relief, it’s ultimately just a bandaid.

    The real key here will be finding where that timeout is stemming from, which is almost always either a plugin or theme conflict. Do you happen to have any errors in your PHP error logs (you can ask your hosting provider about these) around the same time these timeouts are occurring? Keep in mind that you may be looking at different UTC +/- timezones.
