Provides a method of turning the WordPress heartbeat off as well as change some settings. We use this plugin at RD because the heartbeat was clobbering site performance when more than one editor was logged into the CMS. In the future I plan to add the ability to adjust the settings.
<ul>
<li>Disables admin-ajax.php except on the posts, post edit & quick edit pages</li>
<li>Disables hearbeat autostart</li>
<li>Sets the heartbeat interval to 60 seconds</li>
</ul>
<h3>Arbitrary section</h3>
This is my arbitrary section. There’s really nothing special to add because this is truly a simple plugin with no settings or configuration. Turn it on and block the iframe content thieves. Much of this can also be achieve by working with a good hosting provider. If you are board then head over to my content site <a href="https://www.jafdip.com" rel="nofollow ugc">JAFDIP</a>.

Heartbeat Manager allows you to optimize your WordPress site’s performance by limiting or completely disabling the Heartbeat API calls.
The WordPress Heartbeat API uses AJAX calls (<code>admin-ajax.php</code>) to provide real-time information, such as when other users are editing a post or to show real-time notifications (like in WooCommerce). While useful, on many sites, especially E-commerce stores with high traffic, these frequent calls can put a significant strain on the server’s CPU.
This plugin allows you to granularly control this behavior via a simple settings card in Settings > Heartbeat Manager.
Key Features:
<ul>
<li>Backend Frequency Control: Increase or manage the “beat” interval while inside the WordPress Admin Dashboard.</li>
<li>Flexible Frontend Management: Choose whether to keep the Heartbeat API active on the public site or disable it completely.</li>
<li>Integrated Testing Guide: Includes a built-in step-by-step Vademecum in the sidebar to verify your settings via browser Developer Tools.</li>
<li>Lightweight & Translation Ready: Clean, lightweight code that is fully internationalized and ready for translation using the standard <code>levelnetwork-heartbeat-manager</code> text-domain.</li>
</ul>
