ParticipantThanks Andrei,
This is what I’ve found:
Most of the lost connection issue took place when using Visual Composer, AND when trying to set an image as a featured image or in visual composer. It happened other times, too, but those seemed to be the big triggers, repeatedly.
I found one obscure post on a forum that mentioned the Heartbeat API that was tied into WordPress 3.6.X. I used a Heartbeat API plugin named “Heartbeat Control.” I just turned off all the sync settings wear WordPress was trying to keep posts (and other pages) in sync with the server by making backups. I haven’t had an issue with a lost connection since (about 4 days now). It still slows way down when using Visual Composer.
I am not on a managed hosting system and am wondering if that would help the speed of my site and backend work.
If you know a better way to fix the latency issue with Visual Composer, please let me know. I do not understand why it slows down so much when selecting media. My media is generally saved for web (optimized) and the slow issue always happens when media is being selected.

ParticipantI have narrowed down the Lost Connection issue to Visual Composer. When I turn off JavaScript in my browser’s preferences, my site runs really fast! But, VC doesn’t work. I read that the code below can be added to the child theme functions.php file, but that did not help me, either.
add_action(‘admin_head’, function(){
$user_page = get_current_screen();
if( $user_page->post_type == ‘post’ || $user_page->post_type == ‘page’ ) {?>
<script type=”text/javascript”>
jQuery.ajaxSetup({
beforeSend : function(xhr, setting) {
if( setting.data == ‘action=wpb_single_image_src’ || setting.data == ‘action=heartbeat’) {
xhr.abort();
return false;
}
}
});
</script>
<?php}
});

This issue is really bogging everything down. Any help in how to fix it would be so appreciated.benyamindavis
ParticipantRestorah Life WordPress 411:
Username: b3ny@mn_d@v5
Password: !D!e4yaFL2et3ZCWNWWhen I am trying to make updates to a page or post, I will get a “Lost Connection” message at the top of the page. Then, it can take anywhere from a few seconds to 10 minutes to get that page to reload. The front end will be stuck, too, and will not go to a new page or reload a page. I’ve talked to my hosting company (Aplus.net/Deluxe for Business) and they say it’s the WordPress install or database. I’ve searched for help in other forums and I don’t really see a solution. I am wondering if you have seen this before with your template or with WordPress. I will gladly work with you any way I can to get this resolved, as it makes something that should be a few seconds job turn into an hour of frustration.
This happens on Posts and Pages, but will happen anywhere really. Feel free to create a new page and work with the backend builder. I get it a lot there.
Thanks for ALL your help!
Per the Rev Slider suggestion: If I have the site set to be boxed at 1200 px, Will the Rev Slider settings for full width still run to the edges of the browser window, being responsive and allow for the boxed theme settings to still function properly?

ParticipantI’m sorry, but I have one more question:
Do you know of a reason why I would be continuously getting a “Lost Connection” message, or my site would be dragging very slow at times? It’s not all the time, only when I make a few updates. Then, it slows to a crawl or stops working for a few minutes. I’ve checked with my web host and they cannot see a problem from their side. I’ve seen some forums that suggest it could be WordPress code.
I was wondering if you have seen this and if you know of a solution.
Thanks again!
