Internal Server Error – No limit on posts

Hi,

I noticed that if i provide an invalid parameter on p, for example https://www.agrinio-sports.gr/?p=invalid
i get internal server error. The reason is that the memory is being exhausted because it tries to load ALL the posts since day one and show them. No matter how i increase the memory, the issue persists. I even tried with 1GB limit just out of curiosity.
One of the files that is involved in the process is /plugins/td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/loop.php which loop through the files.
Is it possible to either limit the posts with paging, or just return a 404 in case the post provided in the parameter is not valid?

Thanks

Hello,

I am not sure i understood the suggestions on the link you provided. Can you be more specific about this solution and in which reply you are referring to as there are three different suggested solutions?
Also, is there a way to fix it without disabling the parameter? Such as paging the posts that are being queried?

Thanks

Hi Calin,

The problem persists even with the rest of the plugins deactivated. Can you please elaborate on how to achieve the redirect part you mentioned in case the parameter refers to an invalid post. Such as redirecting the user to the 404 page.

Thanks

Hello,

I just remembered that in the past, i had fixed the issue by placing the following PHP block in the index.php of the theme the following code but it’s not working in Newspaper. Can you please elaborate on where to place it in order to make it work for your theme as well.


$post_id = filter_input(INPUT_GET, 'p');
if (!empty($post_id) && get_post_meta($post_id) === FALSE) {
get_template_part('404');
die();
}
