Solved: Wordpress write post freezes
Posted by peanut on Friday Nov 7, 2008 Under techI had encounter this problem since the very first time I started posting on wordpress. It is really troublesome. When I try to write a new post, the page freezes, and sometimes need to wait up to few minutes to wait for the ‘write’ page to finish loading. Sometimes it even end up not responding and my whole computer freezes together with the browser.
It makes posting a new blog very hard. I tried to find solutions on the help page and couldn’t really get one few days back. But today, when I went searching again, I got my problem solved!
Now the ‘write’ page loads normally. No more freezes!
The thread is here. If you experience the same problem. Read it and hopefully it solves your problem as well. All you need to do is replace one of the wp-admin file to the new one that you can find by reading the thread I linked here. Enjoy!
P/s: I found out that the new .php file in the write post do not have comments enabled. So the solution is kinda half way to what I want as we of course want our readers to leave comments.
P/s: The even newer solution is by using the new google browser - Google Chrome. So far, it is working well for me, and no more freezes in ‘write’ post.

Final Solution! (11 Nov 2008)
Try to get your ‘write a post’ page loaded no matter how long it takes, let it run on itself. When finally it finished and everything is stable, scroll down the ‘custom fields’ and click to expand it. You will see a big list of your previous post that you imported and etc. Try to delete all of them. I know it takes a long time to sit and just keep on clicking delete but when it is all done, your ‘write a post’ page will be definitely faster!

Weird, never experienced that before. Hmm, maybe there is no problem with Chrome because Google claims it manages memory better?

according to those threads, it says that there is a false script running that couldn’t response fast enough. the solution given by one of the thread is by rewriting one of the php file in wpadmin. but the problem is the ‘write new post’ page do not have all those advanced functions, making the page load faster because of less script.
i think google chrome just ignore those script kot. it is loading nicely for me. but one problem about google chrome is you can’t type new mails in hotmail! they say the microsoft and google is bongok fighting each other. hopefully new version will come out and i’ll be permanently using google chrome =P
the browser is nice too! easy and clean.
