# WordPress Admin running incredibly slow

 * Basically the title says it all. Front end of the sites are fine but doing anything
   in the admin is impossible. Also, after this problem started in the last day 
   or two, I created a new site which is now giving me a “you must enable cookies”
   error and won’t let me log in.
 * The problem is similar to here: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/woocommerce-extremely-slow-after-wordpress-42-update?replies=60](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/woocommerce-extremely-slow-after-wordpress-42-update?replies=60)
 * But it started before I began to add in Woocommerce. Yes, I’ve disabled and re-
   enabled my plugins (which never fixes anything to everyone who suggests that)
   and I’ve tried disabling and re-enabling the new site.
 * Doing any admin work on my site is effectively dead and I’ve spent two days working
   on this which seems to be a WordPress problem at this point. Anyone else having
   this problem and have any solutions for it?

 * It running a audit on network resources, it appears that admin-ajax.php stalls
   out at 30 seconds. I haven’t no idea if this is normal behavior but it would 
   seem not and it certainly doesn’t happen on the front end.

 * Someone posted in another forum about a solution that didn’t initially solve 
   the problem but now does:
