WordPress uses the Heartbeat API to make frequent background requests to `admin-ajax.php`, which can overwhelm your server especially on shared or VPS hosting. This plugin provides a clean, user-friendly interface that lets you: – ✅ Enable or disable Heartbeat API – ✅ Adjust Heartbeat frequency (interval in seconds) – ✅ Control behavior per section: Dashboard, Post Editor, Frontend – ✅ Instantly apply changes without code Ideal for performance-conscious site owners and developers. 🛠 No need to write a single line of code. Everything is controllable through the WordPress admin. ### Features * Control WordPress Heartbeat activity from the admin panel * Apply settings independently for: - Admin Dashboard - Post/Page Editor - Frontend (theme side) * Choose from: - Allow (default WordPress behavior) - Disallow (disable AJAX polling) - Modify frequency (set custom interval, e.g., 60 seconds) * Built-in protection to prevent unsafe frequency (minimum 15s) * Lightweight and developer-friendly * Clean UI that follows WordPress standards ### About the Developer Created and maintained by “Abdur Rahman”, a WordPress developer passionate about performance, custom plugins, and helping businesses scale through fast and secure websites. 🔗 [Visit My Portfolio](https://devabdurrahman.com) Need a custom plugin?

The Heartbeat API is used by WordPress to send periodic requests (every 15–60 seconds) to `admin-ajax.php` for tasks like auto-saving posts, syncing data, and showing logged-in user activity. ### Why should I control it? Frequent AJAX calls from the Heartbeat API can cause high CPU usage and slow down your site, especially if you or your users keep multiple admin tabs open. ### Is it safe to disable the Heartbeat API? Yes, but some features like autosave or post locking won’t work. For most sites, it’s safe to disable or reduce the frequency in the Dashboard or Frontend. ### Will this plugin work with caching plugins? Yes! This plugin complements performance optimization tools like WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, or LiteSpeed Cache. ## Beoordelingen Er zijn geen beoordelingen voor deze plugin. ## Bijdragers & ontwikkelaars “Heartbeat Controller” is open source software.
