Hello, we have this error popping up in the Health site console, how do we fix this?

Auto-loaded parameters are configuration settings for plugins and themes that are automatically loaded each time a page is loaded in WordPress. Having too many auto-loaded settings can slow down your site. There are 5563 pieces of automatically loaded settings (size: 2 MB) in your site’s settings table, which can cause your site to slow down. You can review the settings automatically loaded into the database and remove any that are no longer needed by the site.

Dear @Goostaf,

We hope this message finds you well.

It appears that the wp_options table in your database may have grown too large. We kindly suggest logging into your PHPMyAdmin to review the table’s size.

Additionally, it may be helpful to remove any unusual or unnecessary plugins that could be contributing to the issue.

As an alternative solution, you could consider increasing the size limit of autoloaded options. You can find more information on this topic in the following link:
[Autoloaded Options Issue in Site Health](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/autoloaded-options-issue-in-site-health/)

Should you require further assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Best regards,

Do I understand correctly that this is your table in the 1st place? I see a topic you have with cleaning methods, can this be done from us?

Dear @Goostaf,

We hope this message finds you well.

Yes, you can proceed with the following steps:

1. Add the code below to the **functions.php** file located in your child theme:
```
update_option('et_header_builder_fonts', array(), 'no');
```
2. After adding the code, refresh your website.

3. Once the website has been refreshed, return to the **functions.php** file and remove the code.

Please note, we strongly recommend backing up your database before proceeding with these changes to ensure the safety of your data.

then the code above doesn’t need to be put anywhere? Isn’t it something to do with fonts? We have it added locally, maybe we did something wrong.

Dear @Goostaf,

We hope this message finds you well.

Please be informed that the code referenced in the link below may potentially remove the custom fonts:

[Link to Screenshot](https://prnt.sc/3eaUb_Sof1-O)

To address this, you may want to consider removing some custom fonts to reduce the size of the wp_options table. Alternatively, you can use the following code to increase the maximum autoloaded option size:
```
add_filter( 'wp_max_autoloaded_option_size', 'my_max_autoload_option_size' );

function my_max_autoload_option_size( $size ) {
    // Reduce the threshold for large sizes to 100K (Default is 150K).
    return 100000;
}
```
We hope this solution proves helpful.

I’m sorry, I do not know what to choose, I thought local fonts on the contrary speed up the site, but it turns out that it is on the contrary becomes heavier? The second code if I put, something will change on the site? Will it become slower or faster?

Dear @Goostaf,

We hope this message finds you well.

We would like to inform you that the wp_option table has grown significantly in size, which may potentially affect your website’s performance.

To address this, we recommend continuing to use the font via CDN to help optimize your site’s speed and efficiency.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Let’s do it again, please, we’re not clear on what to do. In this thread you recommended us to connect fonts locally: https://www.8theme.com/topic/is-it-possible-to-make-fonts-local-on-the-server/#post-393021 to optimize the site, now it has caused a base growth problem and is negatively affecting the site, do I understand correctly? Maybe then it’s easier for us to use google font as before and that will solve the problem? Or do we need to put your code in function after all?

Dear @Goostaf,

We hope this message finds you well.

In our opinion, we would like to recommend that you load Google Fonts via a CDN, as was done previously. Additionally, we suggest utilizing the WP-Rocket plugin to enable font preloading for optimal performance.

For your convenience, please find the relevant documentation below:

– [Optimizing Google Fonts with WP-Rocket](https://docs.wp-rocket.me/article/1312-optimize-google-fonts)
– [Preloading Fonts with WP-Rocket](https://docs.wp-rocket.me/article/1317-preload-fonts)
– [Best Practices for Font Preloading](https://wp-rocket.me/blog/font-preloading-best-practices/)
