Usually, a sub-optimal PHP codebase, lengthy and inefficient database queries, and large files that take time to load cause a sluggish WooCommerce backend.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But other reasons exist, such as heavy and unused plugins, object caches, database queries, content delivery networks (CDNs), and hosting service quality.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Old PHP versions<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WordPress backend can slow down on PHP versions older than PHP 7. In fact, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/about\/stats\/?_ga=2.184565999.734278842.1681199040-1661805851.1681199039\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">53.6 %<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of WordPress sites today run on PHP 7.4. That\u2019s because PHP 7 and above can process requests faster using less number of servers while catering to many visitors.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/PHP-Versions-Used.jpg\" alt=\"PHP Versions Used\" width=\"833\" height=\"593\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-21495\" srcset=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/PHP-Versions-Used.jpg 833w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/PHP-Versions-Used-742x528.jpg 742w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/PHP-Versions-Used-150x107.jpg 150w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/PHP-Versions-Used-768x547.jpg 768w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/PHP-Versions-Used-600x427.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 833px) 100vw, 833px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But there are still some sites with versions as old as 5.2. You should check which version you\u2019re running to see if you need an upgrade. And updating to PHP 8 or above would be ideal as it\u2019s much faster than PHP 7, with simpler syntax and robust security features.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Less memory<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PHP memory limit can also be a significant cause of a slow backend. A lower limit means a hosting server doesn\u2019t allocate enough RAM and processing power to execute specific PHP scripts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While a memory limit protects against malicious attacks and faulty programs running in an infinite loop or with memory leaks, it can still hinder plugins that legitimately require more computing power.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Heavy admin interfaces<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your WordPress admin pages can have many hidden scripts and files running behind the scenes. You can view such files from Chrome\u2019s developer tools and check for Coverage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You will see a list of JavaScript and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) files that the page loads. It will also display the size in bytes allowing you to assess which files use the most memory.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WooCommerce admin pages will be slow if many Javascripts run and the overall interface is heavy and has many events, listeners, and DOM modifiers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Plugins and cache<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WordPress users depend on several plugins to optimize websites and add more page functionality. However, such plugins can slow down the WooCommerce backend as they may have flawed code and other inconsistencies that can interrupt normal operations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, caching plugins can harm WooCommerce&#8217;s backend speed if you don\u2019t configure them correctly. Developers often use object caching plugins to store database query results and retrieve them quickly when re-executing queries. But they can backfire and, instead of offering faster speed, can slow down WooCommerce pages due to misconfigurations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, unused, heavy theme plugins can take up database storage space to store specific files, leading to a slow WooCommerce backend. Furthermore, WordPress constantly checks for updates for such plugins, generating many unwanted HTTP requests and reducing backend speed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Translation plugins are also a common cause of a slow WooCommerce backend, as they use much processing power. Admins use such plugins to display pages in multiple languages if they have a customer base in various locations speaking different languages.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plugins creating additional interfaces, parameters, and metaboxes can also make WordPress admin heavy and slow.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Slow database queries<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Longer query execution times are a significant cause of a slow backend. In particular, WooCommerce involves working with product lists, orders, posts, table joins, metadata, etc. As an admin, you can view and edit these elements on your screen. For example, a typical Orders page looks as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/image1-2.png\" alt=\"Orders page in WooCommerce\" width=\"863\" height=\"752\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-21497\" srcset=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/image1-2.png 863w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/image1-2-742x647.png 742w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/image1-2-150x131.png 150w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/image1-2-768x669.png 768w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/image1-2-600x523.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 863px) 100vw, 863px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14px;\">Image Source: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/woocommerce.com\/document\/managing-orders\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14px;\">WooCommerce<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you can see, the page displays several elements, such as the Order number, Date, Status, Total bill amount, etc. Loading so many objects together causes WordPress to execute a time-consuming long query that leads to a sluggish backend.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, queries can take longer to execute due to a lot of clutter accumulating in your database through spam, objects in the trash, post revisions, etc., resulting in a slow WooCommerce backend.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moreover, transients can develop in your database as WooCommerce temporarily stores time-sensitive items like customer sessions to help improve front-end performance. They can grow if you don\u2019t configure their expiration times properly. Transients with long expirations will also cause longer query execution times and slow down WooCommerce&#8217;s backend, causing admins much inconvenience.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7. Content delivery network and hosting<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A CDN consists of servers in multiple physical locations. Using a CDN, hosting services can duplicate your website\u2019s content on these servers. Once a user requests a page on your website, the server closest to the user\u2019s location will deliver the content accordingly. The technique speeds up response time and improves user experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/what-is-a-cdn.jpg\" alt=\"A CDN network\" width=\"1484\" height=\"832\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16972\" srcset=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/what-is-a-cdn.jpg 1484w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/what-is-a-cdn-742x416.jpg 742w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/what-is-a-cdn-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/what-is-a-cdn-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/what-is-a-cdn-371x208.jpg 371w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1484px) 100vw, 1484px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although a CDN improves front-end performance, it can harm backend dynamics if the CDN delivers your backend pages as well. While some hosting services automatically exclude backend pages from CDN, others don\u2019t.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Likewise, a poor hosting service can also slow down WooCommerce\u2019s backend. The factor is critical because a poor hosting service significantly limits how much you can <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">speed up WooCommerce backend<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. With a poor host, your backend will be slow even if you implement all the other fixes mentioned below.<\/span><br \/>\n<span id=\"easy\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7 easy tips to speed up WooCommerce admin<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The above list of causes for a slow WooCommerce backend should indicate easy fixes that you can implement to <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">speed up WooCommerce backend<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> quickly. Let\u2019s discuss them below before moving on to more advanced solutions.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. A better hosting provider<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first thing you should do is switch to a high-quality hosting service. A poor host can limit your ability to improve backend performance, even if you implement all the possible fixes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, several providers exist, but we recommend the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/hosting\/managed-wordpress-hosting\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10Web Automated WordPress Hosting<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which leverages the Google Cloud infrastructure to deliver superior performance.\u00a0 The tool has state-of-the-art AI-powered optimization features that guarantee an automated 90+ PageSpeed score, highly elastic scalability, and a high-performance cart.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/01\/Screenshot-2023-07-17-132745.jpg\" alt=\"10Web's Automated WordPress Hosting\" width=\"1457\" height=\"733\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-22370\" srcset=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/01\/Screenshot-2023-07-17-132745.jpg 1457w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/01\/Screenshot-2023-07-17-132745-742x373.jpg 742w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/01\/Screenshot-2023-07-17-132745-150x75.jpg 150w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/01\/Screenshot-2023-07-17-132745-768x386.jpg 768w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/01\/Screenshot-2023-07-17-132745-600x302.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1457px) 100vw, 1457px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It offers up to 8 CPUs and 32 GB RAM, ensuring 100% uptime using servers in one of Google\u2019s 12 data centers.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Removing redundant plugins<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the previous section, we discussed how unused plugins slow down WooCommerce&#8217;s backend. So a quick and easy fix would be to <strong>remove unwanted plugins.<\/strong> A practical way of doing this is to delete plugins you don\u2019t use one by one and see performance improvement after each removal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Further, plugins that perform frequent scans and real-time processes in the background can also reduce WooCommerce backend speed. Usually, plugins for generating sitemaps, graphs, building pages, etc., are common culprits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also check for plugins that use the<strong> highest computing power<\/strong>. As mentioned, heavy translation plugins fall under this category. You can use lightweight alternatives, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/polylang.pro\/\">Polylang<\/a> if you feel a translation plugin is necessary for your store.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Update the plugins you use and everything else<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another solution is updating the plugins you frequently use to ensure they have the <strong>latest bug fixes and optimizations<\/strong> to <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">speed up WooCommerce backend<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It\u2019s good practice to check for such updates and test new versions on a staging site before installing them in production.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should also update everything else before start-up to ensure optimal speed. For instance, upgrade to the latest WooCommerce store and WordPress versions, use the latest theme version, and install the most recent extensions to take advantage of all improvements and bug fixes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Only after this step should you move on to the following fixes for boosting WooCommerce backend speed.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Object caching<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We mentioned how object caching could slow down the WooCommerce backend if you don\u2019t configure it correctly. Object caching can be a great help as it lets you quickly retrieve database results and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">speed up WooCommerce database queries<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. But the feature works by using the server\u2019s memory to execute tasks, and wrong configurations can unnecessarily burden your server.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To do object caching, you must use the <strong>right tools<\/strong>, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-redis\/\">WP Redis<\/a>\u00a0or other Redis-based plugins, to perform object caching. The Redis platform is a NoSQL in-memory database that lets you store and access data faster than traditional SQL databases.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, you can choose a <strong>host that offers an out-of-the-box cache solution.<\/strong> In this case, you don\u2019t have to configure object caching manually, so there are fewer chances of error.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, it\u2019s best to temporarily disable object and database caching until you find a suitable caching plugin or a better host.\u00a0 It will help increase backend speed by putting less load on the server and prevent issues due to incorrect manual configurations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"colored-block blue_icon\">\n    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/10web-blog\/images\/shortcodes\/\/blue_icon_block_icon.png\" class=\"colored-block-note\" alt=\"Note\">\n            <h4>Related Article<\/h4>\n\t        <div class=\"colored-block__content\"><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/what-is-the-best-cache-plugin-for-wordpress\/\">Find the Best WordPress Caching Plugin with Our Top 5 Picks<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Minimize dashboard functionality<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WordPress and WooCommerce dashboards have several elements and features you don\u2019t need. For example, you can <strong>remove the order count<\/strong> if it doesn\u2019t give valuable insights regarding your store, helping <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WooCommerce speed up admin orders search<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also <strong>disable unnecessary widgets<\/strong> in WooCommerce and WordPress and <strong>disable image regeneration<\/strong> that happens in the background.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6. Fast WooCommerce theme<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using heavy themes can slow down WooCommerce&#8217;s backend. So it\u2019s wise to choose a <strong>lightweight theme<\/strong> with all the necessary visuals and interactive elements to ensure an optimal user experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But choosing such a theme is challenging as thousands of intuitive and visually appealing designs are available on the market, and each can have a particular feature you want. This, however, doesn\u2019t mean you should choose the fanciest or an all-in-one option, as it can significantly compromise front-end and backend speed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can select <a href=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/fastest-woocommerce-themes\/\">free themes<\/a> like Shoptimizer, Divi, Neve, etc., and other popular options with all the necessary e-commerce features your site needs. Of course, you can always upgrade to the paid version to get more functionalities as your business develops.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The reason for using a free theme at the start is to allow you to experiment and see its results.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A pro tip is to enlist all the functions you require for your e-commerce store. You can then search for an appropriate free theme that meets most of your requirements if not all.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7. Removing bloat<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Deleting unused plugins only sometimes solves the problem. That\u2019s because there can be other elements on your WooCommerce admin panel that are slowing it down. For example, long scripts, heavy and dynamic styles, cart fragments, extensions, etc., can all cause the site to bloat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The quickest way of removing them is to use plugins like Disable WooCommerce Bloat, which disables several elements such as the password strength meter, status meta box, marketing hup, the Elementor dashboard widget, and much more.\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span id=\"advanced\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8 advanced tips to speed up WooCommerce admin<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The following will explain a few advanced techniques to <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">speed up WooCommerce backend<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. However, you must only try these if all the above tips and tricks fail.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Enable OPCache<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OPCache guarantees to speed up WooCommerce backend without the risks attached to object-based caching. <\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"tenweb-quote\">\n\t<\/p>\n<p class=\"quote_content\">OPCache is an OPCode caching mechanism that translates PHP scripts into a server-readable format whenever you load a page with PHP files.<\/p>\n<p><\/div>\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It works by checking whether the server cache memory contains the PHP script. If the script is missing from the cache, the server parses it and compiles it into OPCode.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OPCache then stores the OPCode in the server\u2019s cache, so the next time you load the same PHP script, the server doesn\u2019t have to analyze the entire code, leading to faster loading.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can enable OPCache through the WordPress OPCache plugin or cPanel in the PHP Extensions menu. But you must check if your host allows you to do this, as not all providers let you change cache configures easily. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10Web WordPress Hosting<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, however, lets you control these settings with ease.<\/span><\/p>\n\r\n<style>\r\n  #ctablocks_inline_71{\r\n          background-color: #2a2f30;\r\n        color: #ffffff;\r\n    border-radius: 6px;\r\n  }\r\n\r\n  #ctablocks_inline_71 p{\r\n    color: #ffffff;\r\n  }\r\n  #ctablocks_inline_71 .button{\r\n        background-color: rgb(34,179,57);\r\n      color: #ffffff;\r\n    border-color: #22b339 !important;\r\n  }\r\n  #ctablocks_inline_71 .button:hover{\r\n    background: rgba(34,179,57,0.82);\r\n    color: #ffffff;\r\n    opacity: 1;\r\n  }\r\n        #ctablocks_inline_71 .ctablocks_content_info p {\r\n        padding-left: 36px;\r\n      }\r\n      #ctablocks_inline_71 .ctablocks_content_button {\r\n          margin-left: 37px;\r\n      }\r\n  @media screen and (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 1260px) {\r\n      #ctablocks_inline_71 .ctablocks_content_button {\r\n          margin-left: 37px !important;\r\n      }\r\n  }\r\n  ;\r\n<\/style>\r\n<div id=\"ctablocks_inline_71\" class=\"ctablocks_container inline_type\r\n        \">\r\n\r\n  <div class=\"ctablocks_content clear\">\r\n    <div class=\"ctablocks_content_info\">\r\n      \r\n            <div class=\"title-wrap\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t            <h4>WordPress hosting that's fully automated<\/h4>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n              <p>Host on 10Web's high performance infrastructure and enjoy all the benefits of a secure Google Cloud Partner hosting and website building with AI. <\/p>\r\n          <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"ctablocks_content_button\">\r\n              <a href=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/ai-website-builder\/\" class=\"button\" data-gtag=\"sign-up-blog\" data-buttontype=\"sign-up\" data-gtag=\"cta-71\" data-buttontype=\"cta-inline\"\r\n\t        >Get Started for Free<\/a>\r\n                    <span class=\"button-desc\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/cta-blocks\/assets\/images\/check.svg\" class=\"check\"><span>No credit card required<\/span><\/span>\r\n      \r\n    <\/div>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Database cleaning<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WooCommerce database optimization<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can significantly speed up WooCommerce backend by removing unwanted data. WooCommerce databases accumulate several data elements, such as product pages, tags, reviews, data from plugins, orders, payments, inventory, etc.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, you can <strong>start by removing old revisions<\/strong>. Revisions occur whenever you save a draft, update, or publish a page on WooCommerce. They help by keeping a backup of older versions so you can revert to the original content in case of unexpected issues. Also, WordPress <strong>creates a new copy every 60 seconds by default.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With time, the number of revision items can increase and create database clutter leading to a slow WooCommerce backend. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wp_post<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is the table where WordPress adds a row for every new revision.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can avoid revisions hampering your backend performance by deleting them through various plugins. <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-sweep\/\">WP-Sweep<\/a> is one option that helps you <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">improve WooCommerce database speed<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cleaning up revisions, auto drafts, deleted, unapproved, or spammed comments, duplicate meta, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Alternatively, you can restrict the number of revisions you want to keep in the database. You can quickly reduce the revisions limit through the wp_config.php file, where you can specify the number in the following code snippet:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><code>define(\u2018WP_POST_Revisions\u2019, 10)<\/code><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this case, the number of revisions is 10. You can also set it to \u201cfalse\u201d to disable revisions altogether.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similarly, transients also pose a problem to WooCommerce&#8217;s backend speed, as discussed earlier. You can remove them through the <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/delete-expired-transients\/\">Delete Expired Transients<\/a> plugin, which deletes old transients instantly and removes orphaned records.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, in the latest WooCommerce versions, you can clear all customer sessions under the Tools menu.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/image2-2-e1684308875962.png\" alt=\"Cleaning customer sessions in WooCommerce\" width=\"1050\" height=\"334\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-21499 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/image2-2-e1684308875962.png 1050w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/image2-2-e1684308875962-742x236.png 742w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/image2-2-e1684308875962-150x48.png 150w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/image2-2-e1684308875962-768x244.png 768w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/image2-2-e1684308875962-600x191.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1050px) 100vw, 1050px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14px;\">Image Source: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/usersinsights.com\/woocommerce-clear-customer-sessions\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14px;\">UsersInsights<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Check for plugins that result in sub-optimal queries<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Heavy themes, extensions, and plugins can significantly burden the database by generating lengthy queries to fetch relevant results. It is particularly problematic with sites that have an <strong>extensive product list<\/strong>. Removing them helps <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">speed up WooCommerce database queries<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, avoid using plugins that include a counter on your pages. For instance, counter plugins show the number of comments, reviews, posts, etc., which takes up a lot of processing power, especially if your site is large with a lot of user activity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can use monitoring plugins such as <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/query-monitor\/\">Query Monitor<\/a> to check which extensions or themes are causing trouble. They will let you view all the scripts, styles, and HTTP requests associated with a specific plugin or extension and calculate the loading time to see which consumes the most compute resources.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Switching off debugging<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WordPress has standardized debugging options that track PHP errors, warnings, and notices, and enabling debug mode slows down WooCommerce&#8217;s backend. So it\u2019s best practice to disable the setting through the wp-config.php file. The code snippet below shows where the setting is present,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><code>define( \u2018WP_DEBUG\u2019, true)<\/code><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can set it to false and disable debug mode.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6. WordPress Heartbeat API<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The WordPress Heartbeat API allows your site to maintain a connection with the server and receive updates in near-real-time. <strong>The API is useful for front-end features<\/strong>, such as autosaving posts and generating login expiration notifications.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, the API works by setting up a time interval &#8211; <strong>usually 15 &#8211; 120 seconds<\/strong> &#8211; after which it sends a request from your site to the server for processing. The server returns a response in JSON format, and the site resends a confirmation signal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Though the API is great for front-end processes, it can slow down the admin&#8217;s page if it keeps sending and receiving requests in the background. You can avoid the problem by increasing the time interval through the functions.php files for your active theme or disabling the API using the Perfmatters plugin.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7. Refreshed Fragments AJAX request<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WooCommerce uses the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wc-ajax=get_refreshed_fragments <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to update user carts and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">speed up WooCommerce orders<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> without requiring them to refresh the page. The functionality improves user experience as visitors can see their carts dynamically update whenever they change it without reloading the page.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, the feature can slow down the WooCommerce backend, especially if your site is on shared servers. The remedy is disabling the function through Disable Cart Fragments &#8211; an easy-to-use custom plugin on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/disable-cart-fragments\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WordPress.org<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although the technique may compromise the personalization of the dynamic cart update feature, it still improves user experience by making the site run faster and smoother.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plus, you can enable the \u201cRedirect to the Cart page\u201d option under the Product option in WooCommerce Settings. Doing so will redirect the customer to the Carts page once they make any updates. With this, the user experience remains intact, as buyers can quickly see the updates they make to their cart on a new page.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8. WooCommerce screen options<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can use WooCommerce\u2019s built-in screen options to let <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WooCommerce speed up the admin orders index<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. They let you control <strong>how many Orders appear on a single page.<\/strong> You can use the option to decrease the number of orders per page, reducing the query size and leading to less loading time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also specify which columns to display depending on your requirements, as shown below:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/image3-3.png\" alt=\"WooCommerce Screen Options\" width=\"887\" height=\"475\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-21500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/image3-3.png 887w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/image3-3-742x397.png 742w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/image3-3-150x80.png 150w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/image3-3-768x411.png 768w, https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/image3-3-600x321.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 887px) 100vw, 887px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14px;\">Image Source: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/woocommerce.com\/document\/managing-orders\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14px;\">WooCommerce<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reducing the number of items per page and the columns to display will help <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WooCommerce speed up the admin orders<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> page and boost backend speed.<\/span><br \/>\n<span id=\"conclusion\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin-top: 100px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Conclusion<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WooCommerce backend can be challenging to manage, especially if you have an extensive product range with high consumer traffic.
