 * Hi Esmi,
 * I didn’t have a php5.ini file so I added on with a single line:
 * memory_limit = 64M ;
 * I used php5.ini since I understood that I need that since my server is running
   php 5.2. However, the site and dashboard still seem to move very slow.
 * Do you have nay more ideas? What do you think about the fact that upgrading to
   3.3.2 made it very fast for a day or two and then it became slow again? I think
   that it maybe has something to do with all the old plugins that I deactivated..
   is that possible?
 * Thanks

 * Hi Esmi,
 * Thanks for trying to help. I will try and edit the php.ini file. From your answer,
   I didn;t understand if there is some possibility of re-installing a totally fresh
   instance of WP (i.e., no plugins, no changes), and then somehow put back all 
   posts, my costumed theme etc.
 * Thanks,

 * Hi Esmi, this is the reply I got:
 * _Thank you for your reply. I understand you are concerned about the amount of
   memory for your PHP. You can adjust this amount in your php.ini or php5.ini file
   but your plan is typically limited to about 64MB. Keep in mind with shared hosting
   plans the resources, such as memory, are shared and there for can be limited.
   If you need more memory than this for your site, you will want to upgrade to 
   a Virtual Dedicated Server or Dedicated Server._

 * Hello Esmi,
 * I haven’t got a reply from my host yet, but I wondered if you can answer a layman
   question:
 * Is it possible to copy the whole wp-content dir into my local computer, and then
   delete all the WP directory, re-install WP from scratch, and then replace the
   empty wp-content with my local wp-content?
 * will that still retain all the posts, comments etc?
 * Thanks a lot!

 * Hello Esmi,
 * Thank you for the suggestions. I have tried all 3 and sadly they didn’t help.
   I tried the twentyeleven theme, reseted the plugin folder and uploaded the wp-
   admin and wp-includes from a fresh download, but the average loading time for
   the site and the dashboard remained long (15-20 seconds).
 * I want to mention another thing that might help: a few days ago, after I had 
   slow response for a day or two, i upgraded WP from 3.2 to the latest 3.3.2, and
   for a few hours the site and backend were very fast. Then, after a day or two,
   it returned to be very slow as it is now.
 * Please, if you have any other idea, please tell me, I am kind of desperate here…
 * Thanks,

 * Hi,
 * you can see this here:
 * [http://www.rachelife.com/2011/11/12/%D7%9B%D7%93%D7%95%D7%A8%D7%99-%D7%90%D7%A0%D7%A8%D7%92%D7%99%D7%94/](http://www.rachelife.com/2011/11/12/%D7%9B%D7%93%D7%95%D7%A8%D7%99-%D7%90%D7%A0%D7%A8%D7%92%D7%99%D7%94/)
 * Of course, the blog is in hebrew so you might not be able to read it 🙂
 * Anyway, scroll down to the end of the post to find the sociable icons, if you
   hit the FB one, you get a new window, but then the info of the post becomes gibberish(
   the title somehow remains ok)
 * Thanks,
    Ohad

 * Hi,
 * So FB automatically looks for all the images and the page? it’s not something
   your code is doing to create the list for FB?

 * Hi Webjunk, thanks for responding so fast!
 * I did install the wp-mail-smtp plugin, and indeed after configuring it I was 
   able to send a test mail to my email account from the plugin.
 * However, the 3 newsletter plugins still seem to not be able to send me any emails,
   is there a chance that they are still not using the SMTP, although I installed
   the wp-mail-smtp? how can I force them to use it?
 * Thanks a million,
    Ohad
