Thanks… wordpress short code needs the quotes to stay as quotes…

Our host provider (Network Solutions) has been providing suggestions as to how to speed up the site without the plugin. Nothing has worked.

I have notied that regular html pages are fine.
And also the phpadmin application that is used to browse/maintain the underlying MySql database also runs extremely fast. Phpadmin is written in php and accesses the MySQL database… WordPress does exactly the same thing phpmyadmin is fast. WordPress is slow.

There must therefore be some setting (perhaps a maximum limit to used memory?) that is affgecting the wordpress blog and which is not set so low for phpadmin. Does anyone know if this sounds reasonable as an explanation? If so then it could form the basis of a request to Network Solutions to get them to do something that would make things better.

Thanks for the responses everyone.

Donncha, thanks. I’ve now raised a problem call with the host provider to look into it. I also let them know I get error messages when I try to upgrade the plugin to a newer version. Once we get that working we’ll reinstall the whole thing from scratch. (the plugin was already there when the wordpress site environment was purchased and created. evidently they did the set up incorrectly in their install routine)

I didn’t see a debug option. Do I have to edit the code to turn that on?
