I have installed XAMPP on my computer in order to locally edit and modify a Joomla homepage. When I want to save my edits in Joomla, it takes a very long time. I guess the problem then is that it takes a long time to update the SQL database. Can I increase speed? Now, it is so slow that I chose to edit the pages directly online, but I would like to do it online.
I only want to work locally on my computer with Joomla (XAMPP).
In the XAMPP Control Panel I start Apache and MySQL, I have tried with the Svc alternative.
I am a newbie to XAMPP.
Note: I am often timed out in the phpMyAdmin. Can I change the setting so I am not timed out and have to log in again?
