    Could somebody help me with my PHP Link Directory script? It's running slow and I can't figure out why.

    It's not just the main section it's the admin panel too. I would really appreciate any help, thanks.

    Do you mean in PHPLD? Because I can't find one. I'm rather new to PHPLD but I followed the setup instructions correctly. I installed it once and it ran slow, then installed it again and the same problem. The server is a friends server and I have several sites on the server, so does he and they all seem to work fine.

    Your site did load a little slow. Could it be your web counter slowing down the site.

    Good luck

    No, I mean Apache server. Your friend would be the one to check the error log, but only for Apache servers.

    It could also be the script or even the server. What's the speed and memory of the server?

    I don't know to be honest, and he's not online to ask. I know i'm set to unlimited everything though so disk usage shouldn't really be a worry because there's only 59% used on the whole server and i've only used (this month) 4605.27 megabytes bandwidth. Everything else works fine it's just the PHPLD. Confusing huh?

    This may be worth a shot.

    There's a .htaccess file in the root directory of the script.

    Open it up and temporarily remove this code block:

    # URL rewrite rules
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
       RewriteEngine On
    
       ## Category redirect
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
       RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php [QSA,L]
    </IfModule>
    Code (markup):
    Now, test the site for speed to see if there's a difference.

    Thanks for the help I appreciate it. I've been offline for a day or so with computer problems. All fixed now though. I have tried removing that code but I can't see a difference in speed.
