Title: Certain words causing post timeout Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # Certain words causing post timeout * [dannyra](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dannyra/) * (@dannyra) * [16 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/certain-words-causing-post-timeout/) * I have a blog post that a couple combination of words causes the post to hang and timeout. Below I pasted my post and will bold the areas that cause the post to hang. It took me a long time to figure out where the issues were. If anybody has any suggestions please let me know. After the initial issues I upgraded to 2.9.2 and I’m still having the same problem. I also disable the only 2 extensions I have installed. Re-tweet and google analytics. * When designing any space, it is a good idea to consider the family and friends who will be sharing the space with you. At Hickory Furniture Mart, we provide you with the resources you need to find the right pieces for the space you are designing. However, it is up to you to determine how the space will function. Each piece of furniture you select can help you to make entertaining not only easier, but more comfortable as well. * For example, if you are looking for dining room furniture in NC, our showrooms can help you find pieces that offer several options. A round table creates a more intimate setting and is conducive for great conversations. Purchase an ** extension table** with leafs to give you more seating options. This is always a good investment and you are always ready for any additional company that may drop in. On the other hand, if you wish to accommodate the entire family you will want to consider a longer, rectangular table. A long dining **table becomes** the focal point of any room, and makes it inviting and efficient for all your family affairs. The amount of space in your home is important to factor here, so take that **into consideration** when determining how each area will function. * One of the biggest design questions our customers often face revolves around the living room. Customers many time struggle with layout, unsure if they should go with a specially configured sectional or a sofa, love seat combination. However, at Hickory Furniture Mart, we ensure you have enough options to meet every style of entertaining you plan to do. When visiting us, consider these furniture-shopping tips: * Buy enough seating for the space. A sectional is less formal, but offers more seating. * Consider purchasing ottomans and footstools that turn into extra seating when you have a large group over. * In some cases, you may need a custom made piece to fit your precise room dimensions and meet your design needs. If you are not finding what you are looking for, be sure to ask our knowledgeable sales team about custom hand-crafted pieces. Our furniture galleries and showrooms at Hickory Furniture Mart will provide you with the finest selections for each room in your home all in one place. You can make entertaining easier for yourself by choosing styles that give you more flexibility, convenience and comfort for your family and guests. Plan a trip, and let our expert sales teams and design centers assist you in selecting the appropriate furniture for your entertaining needs today!

None of them was ever proven to be an issue with some form of “reserved words”.

So I did a clean install on my original domain. Removing the tables and all the files first and still had the same issue. * I’m on a shared host so there isn’t a lot I can do as far as increasing the available memory for php scripts to use so I’m trying to get some ideas off the hosts forum. * Thanks for your help and if you have anymore ideas please let me know. * Thread Starter [dannyra](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dannyra/) * (@dannyra) * [16 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/certain-words-causing-post-timeout/#post-1456680) * One more thing I just found.

Myself and one other administrator still can’t. I moved the blog to another domain I have at the same host and we can post fine. But we still can’t post on the server we need to. * Thread Starter [dannyra](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dannyra/) * (@dannyra) * [15 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/certain-words-causing-post-timeout/#post-1456878) * Finally got to the bottom of the issues.

The firewall was causing timeout issues.
