This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
You are experiencing very slow performance on your website, both on the frontend and in the WP-admin area, after publishing it. The performance issue is particularly severe in the WP-admin area.

Solution:
We recommend that you first address the optimization of WPML tables. This involves adding indexes and a primary key to improve database efficiency. For detailed guidance on how to do this, please refer to our documentation on WPML tables.

Please also consult with this check list.

Once you have made these adjustments, if the problem persists, it might be due to other factors that are not covered by this solution or might be outdated. We highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, please do not hesitate to open a new support ticket. You can reach us directly for further assistance at WPML support forum.

Hi,

Reference to our recent chat, please let me know when you're done with fixing of WPML tables (i.e. adding indexes, primary key as mentioned in the chat). And I'll try my best to investigate the issue further.

Regards.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

I'm trying to login to the site but after submitting credentials, it is stuck at the login screen - means browser keeps showing that it is still loading the page.

Can you please deactivate all plugins, including WPML and switch to a standard 2021 theme and let me know? So I can login and then can check further accordingly.

IMPORTANT: Please take full backup of your website and database beforehand.
