Hello,
I am running a site that has almost 200K posts and adds about 100 posts a day. I am facing slow query issue. I am a non-developer and am planning to implement the plugin but am a bit hesitant. Is there a serious issue that I can comprehend if I implement the plugin as I am unsure of the options (settings) to be selected, etc. and the site should not get negatively affected.
I was suggested to implement ‘Index WP MySQL For Speed’ but it came with a note.
The below is the communication I received, so you are well aware of my situation.
If you are looking to create indexes for the database to see if that helps we would recommend the following: https://wordpress.org/plugins/index-wp-mysql-for-speed/
Please note that we don’t recommend adding this plugin directly to a live website without first testing it on a sandboxed installation.
Also….
Here are the tables where you can consider adding indexes:
- wp_posts: This table stores information about your posts, including post type data that Rank Math queries for sitemap generation.
- wp_postmeta: Rank Math may also query post metadata, so optimizing this table can help.
- wp_term_relationships: If your sitemap includes taxonomy data, optimizing this table can be beneficial.
The below is my site server setup
