Fix for Slow Performance
After several users reporting slow performance related with FXtender Pro I've done additional debugging and found the problem to be related with FXtender update checker cron job (
jr_fx_update_check). It is strongly recommended that you disable the cron job:
jr_fx_update_check, to avoid slow performance on your website. This check is not needed as after
FXtender 1.3.0, update notifications are automatically displayed on the plugins page and updates can be applied automatically on the same page.
The fix is very simple:
1. edit the file fxtender-pro-jobroller.php
2. search for this line of code:
PHP Code:
add_action('init', 'jr_fx_schedule_update_checks', 99);
3. Delete it or comment it by prefixing the line with double slashes:
PHP Code:
//add_action('init', 'jr_fx_schedule_update_checks', 99);
To make sure the cron job is disabled, go to JobRoller > System Info and check that
jr_fx_update_check is no longer listed.
