WooCommerce Common Errors

**

When managing the Products on WooCommerce via LitCommerce, you may encounter some errors related to the WordPress connection or the WordPress Security Restrictions.

This article provides general troubleshooting steps to help address these issues.

Connection Instability


You may encounter the following error message when creating the Listing from the Sales Channel to WooCommerce.

This means the connection between LitCommerce and your WordPress site is not stable. It might be caused by the Maximum Execution Time and Memory Limit on your WordPress settings.

To optimize the connection between LitCommerce and WordPress, you can set these settings to 300 seconds and 256M respectively using one of the following methods:


1. Editing the php.ini File


Step 1: Locate the php.ini file (commonly found in the root folder or a directory like /etc/).

Step 2: Open the file for editing and add or modify the following lines:


max_execution_time = 300
memory_limit = 256M


  • max_execution_time: Sets the maximum time (in seconds) a script is allowed to run.
  • memory_limit: Defines the maximum amount of memory a script can consume.


Step 3: Save the file and reload the webserver.

2. Modifying the .htaccess File (for Apache server only)


Step 1: Locate the .htaccess file and add the following lines:


php_value max_execution_time 300
php_value memory_limit 256M


Step 2: Save the file and reload the webserver.

3. Updating wp-config.php


Step 1: Open the wp-config.php file.

Step 2: Add these lines before the end of the file:


set_time_limit(300);
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M');


Step 3: Save the file and reload the webserver.

4. Contacting Your Hosting Provider


If the above methods don’t work, contact your hosting provider and request the following adjustments:

  • Maximum Execution Time: 300 seconds
  • Memory Limit: 256MB

  1. Log in to the Cloudflare dashboard ↗, and select your account and domain.
  2. Go to Security > WAF > Tools.

  • Select Allow.
  1. For Zone, select whether the rule applies to the current website only or all websites in the account.
