I keep seeing messages saying people’s blogs are slow once they upgrade, but no one ever posts how they resolved the issue. Anyone?

Did you find anything out? I’m having the same problem. I think it’s WP.

I am having the same exact problem on my blog and there seems to be no solution out there I can find.

Can’t delete in bulk.
When I save it takes minutes to complete – if it even does because most of the time I get “Connection Timed Out.”
When I save or edit a post my entire blog will go down for about 1-2 minutes with “Connection Timed Out” and then will come back up.

Some people are saying it may be wp-cron, but I installed Crontrol and I don’t see many cron jobs at all – and nothing that would cause this kind of problem.

To get comments to email, go into pluggable-functions.php
———> CHANGE TO THIS <—————-
———————

$admin_email = get_settings(‘admin_email’);

if ( ” == $comment->comment_author ) {
$from = “From: \”$blogname\” <$admin_email>”;
if ( ” != $comment->comment_author_email )
$reply_to = “Reply-To: $comment->comment_author_email”;
} else {
$from = “From: \”$comment->comment_author\” <$admin_email>”;
if ( ” != $comment->comment_author_email )
$reply_to = “Reply-To: \”$comment->comment_author_email\” <$comment->comment_author_email>”;

}

$message_headers = “MIME-Version: 1.0\n”
. “$from\n”
. “Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\”” . get_settings(‘blog_charset’) . “\”\n”;

if ( $reply_to )
$message_headers .= $reply_to . “\n”;

$notify_message = apply_filters(‘comment_notification_text’, $notify_message);
$subject = apply_filters(‘comment_notification_subject’, $subject);
$message_headers = apply_filters(‘comment_notification_headers’, $message_headers);

@wp_mail($user->user_email, $subject, $notify_message, $message_headers);

return true;
}
endif;

AND THIS
———————

if ( !function_exists(‘wp_mail’) ) :
function wp_mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers = ”) {
if( $headers == ” ) {
$headers = “MIME-Version: 1.0\n” .
“From: ” . get_settings(‘admin_email’) . “\n” .
“Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\”” . get_settings(‘blog_charset’) . “\”\n”;
}

return @mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
}
endif;

I got it to work by changing around some of the code in pluggable-functions.php!

Wohoo!

Feel free to email me if you are having the same problem. [email protected].

Thanks for all your comments!

Skippy – I have the subscribe-to-comment plugin sending me emails from within the subdomains just fine.

When I reply to any comments I get an email from travel@meetjustin with the subject that begins with [Travel.MeetJustin.com].

I am hosting with Yahoo which I know limits php emailing but I was able to get around this on other blogs with some changes to the pluggable-functions.php.

I am hosting with Yahoo and since they just started the whole WordPress quick install they have provided a plugin called “Customizable Permalinks.” I don’t know if it will work outside of yahoo though.

Thanks for replying Skippy.

I just checked my mailError.log on the server and sure enough there were errors.

Result: 9
2005 Dec 29 19:27:07 From address not in member domain. Message not sent.

How would changing the Blog Address (URI) affect this? When I change it back to the non-subdomain URI the emails go out fine.

Any ideas?

I am having this same problem. I went through everything step by step and found that my problem stems from changing the “WordPress address (URI)” and the “Blog address (URI)” under the options tab in the admin section.

As soon as I change those from “http:\\www.meetjustin.com/Travel” to “http:\\travel.meetjustin.com” (the subdomain is point to the \Travel folder on the server) emailing ceases to function.

After I change those options the emails stop, even when I change them back to the original settings.

Is there something I could change in the php that would fix this??

Problem solved for me – I love this forum!

The option count trick worked for me – thank you!!
