Can you please enable debugging mode, Please add following lines to wp-config.php just before where it says: /* That’s all, stop editing! Happy publishing. */
define( ‘WP_DEBUG’, true );
define( ‘WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY’, false );
define( ‘WP_DEBUG_LOG’, true );
Then try to reload the optimization tab again
A debug.log file should be created inside wp-content folder,which should contain error information in it, Please share the file with us.
Hi Harshad,
I should have replied earlier since I figured out that after I deactivated W3 Total Cache, it worked as expected and even after this, I could turn on W3 Total Cache again and I still could optimize the DB. I’m now only struggling with the question – myself – if and what plugin for cashing I will use in the future .. WP-Optimze or W3 Total Cache?
I’m still not convinced about the cache function of WP-Optimze since I had a very long logon time as admin with WP-Optimize and it’s cache function enabled.
@angeliquevancampen What id you do a Preload from WP-Optimize > Cache > Preload, does it helps to fix the issue?
Hi Harshad,
I’ll give it today – just wake up – a try with your suggestion and hopefully that did the trick. Personally, I hate to use too many plugins. When I could use WP-Optimize completely, then that will have my preference. What said, I’ll report back how that goes.
Hi Harshad, it seems it’s faster now, or to be honest, very fast, so that issue I thought I had is gone.
Perhaps not the best question if I may ask here; I’m struggling which one I should go for “WP-Optimize” or W3 Total Cache” for the cache function?
Harshad, is there perhaps a tutorial or document that offers me in respect to the cache function of WP-Optimize the recommended settings for an optimal working WP-Optimize cache?
