Background of the issue:
I am trying to make changes to some of the product pages on our site, which have several variations. We raised the php_sapi: litespeed time_limit to 30, which helped, but it's still super slow. We want to add another language to our site, which currently has two languages, but we are hesitant due to performance issues. Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link

Symptoms:
The site is unable to make changes to some product pages. Changes often do not get applied. The error log shows: PHP Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /home/ldchczz/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wpml-string-translation/classes/MO/JustInTime/MOFactory.php on line 36.

Questions:
Can you let us know how to solve the maximum execution time error?
Do we have too many settings turned on in our WPML?

Hello,

Welcome to the WPML support forum. Before passing this thread to my colleague, I would like to share some suggestions and possible solutions for the issues you mentioned.

Please temporarily increase max_execution_time to 120–180 seconds and check if there is any difference in the results.

Also, upgrade to the latest version of WooCommerce after a full site backup and ensure you are using the newest version of the plugins.

If the problem persists, please follow the WPML and WooCommerce Multilingual troubleshooting steps outlined in the linked article after a full site backup and provide us with your feedback.

Thanks!
