    Because every page involves a lot of database lookups and string processing.

    @FahadAlt Actually yes, the installation I was referring to has a plug-in for literally everything.

    @TechnoTrumpet for WordPress its preferred to have max 3-5 plugins so it won’t be slow.
    Use only the plugins that you really need.

    Am not sure what plugins you need, but I would recommend to not use too many.

    If you are building a Wordpress from scratch .. I recommend to use Advance Custom Fields. It helps you to customize the whole website with nice interface for the user, and you won’t need so many plugins for slider, social icons, image gallery or anything because you customized on your needs.

    @FahadAlt Sadly, I am not the admin, I only update the info. I wish I could decrease the use of plugins.

    @TechnoTrumpet won’t hurt to suggest a max number of plugins to management.. it will effect the performance of the website

    @FahadAlt Yeah, that would cause a major redisgn of the entire site. The web dev we are working with isn't very nice when it comes to pricing. That might be a $400 project. The association behind the website simply doesn't have that budget. The front end isn't bad, I was mainly complaining about the back end.

    @TechnoTrumpet don’t know what to say, but they should consider the backend too

    @FahadAlt I think the main reason they don't is the server is on their network, it isn't quite as noticable.
