Its on a fast server (with nationalnet) but loading too slow (7 secs.) My host told me that the cause of the slowliness is the plugin i use for the image galleries (nextgen gallery plugin). I cannot delete this plugin because the database is already so huge. So i need someone to take a look at this plugin and make it faster.
But the main problem is that the wp-admin got very slow too which makes working with it a real pain in the ass.
can you do that kind of job and how much do you charge? (i think php knowledge is necessary for that)
