profiler-what-slowing-down

I installed Profiler – What’s Slowing Down Your WP to identify performance issues on my WordPress site. Unfortunately, it caused far more harm than good. After running the plugin, my entire website went down, showing a critical error. I had to manually access my hosting account, deactivate all plugins via FTP, and then reactivate them one by one to restore my site. Took me more than 1hr of work! It’s supposed to help optimize your site, but instead, it creates more problems than it solves. If you value your website’s stability, I strongly recommend avoiding this plugin. Look for alternatives.

This crashed my website and caused a fatal error in front-end and back-end. It took me 2 hours to fix it back. I am a web developer so I did it myself but what about other users, they might get in big trouble. Don’t use this plugin. It’s waste of time and you will get your website in trouble.

When it ran the first scan I got the result, but it caused a critical error on the website. I had to manually deactivate plugins, then disable this plugin. It crashed the Woocommerce installation. Take backups before use, like I did!

Pros: it works Cons: if it’s not the matter of plugin — you’ll never know what’s causing 26K of queries at your WP
