• Hello

    I make use of the Types plugin for a long time and I’m sure it’s one of the best plugins I’ve seen and used on all sites that I have developed. I need to ask you some important thing I was asked about: I used Types recently in a project for a website which has a high volume of visitors per month, and after they put the project online, the site’s owner came to say me that the Types plugin “almost knocked her website database” and said also that “Types are consuming server resources in a excessive way and left their WP admin too slow”. I was really angry with her because I know Types plugin for a long time and I’m sure what they are saying has no basis. So I would like to ask you if you have ever received any complaint around Types “eating” much performance from a server or some stuff like that. I will not disclose that information to them, but I want to make sure, just for my satisfaction as a web professional, that I hadn’t guilty for their server misconfiguration. In summary, I would like to have your opinion about what the people are saying about their experience using Types.

    I appreciate your attention and give you congratulations for the excellent work you have done and continue to do in Types.

  • I would be interested in some infos thereabout too. Intuitively I think the resource question can be tackled by system configuration and caching, but if anybody has some information… bump 🙂

    Types basically creates Content Types

    The ONLY what can happen is:

    1. You use MANY fields or the Fields have MANY options, then max_input_vars or/and PHP execution time and MEM limits should be increased.
    (It wont make the site or admin SLOW but preset issues in saving content)

    2. If you use Relationships (Child and parent relations) with MANY posts and MANY relations (MANY) then it might slow down the backend a bit, as it needs to query and fetch the related posts so to populate the related fields.
    But it wont knock out anything

    I suspect, if it “knocks” out some Database or Server, then the memory or execution time is the issue, and other issues listed here:

    Please let me know here, if anybody finds other issues
