Slow pageload/Fatal error when editing Content Type.

I get this, and in my case it's caused by having node reference fields to nodes with node reference fields. The token tree thus lists field tokens for nodes that are referenced by nodes that are referenced by nodes, quickly growing out of control.

More discussion here: #1252840: Node references + Entity Tokens creates HUGE Token Tree UI table HTML

For my site I fixed the problem temporarily with http://drupal.org/project/token_tweaks and setting a maximum depth of 2 for the token tree.

For automatic_nodetitles it would be really nice if the token system could provide a tree for just the current node type, and not for all possible node types. That would speed things up quite a bit.

Or perhaps we could add hook_tokens_alter() to automatic_nodetitles to strip out tokens for node types other than the one we're editing?

I'm not sure this issue has been resolved. #3 is a good suggestion. Disabling auto_nodetitle means I can actually access the Manage Content type page.

After installin the module, when I try to edit a type (I can still manage the fields and displays, not the main edit), I've a fatal error, so I had to disable the module. I would like to go one step further, and desinstall it, but I can't. It's a real drag...

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 2986337 bytes) in /home/web/drupal7/includes/database/database.inc on line 2168

One more thing, now that I have disabled the module, each time I display a block, I have this error:

Notice: Undefined variable: source_fields in ddblock_form_alter() (line 1090 of /home/web/drupal7/sites/all/modules/ddblock/ddblock.module).

Which is probably connected to the fact that I still have the mapping option visible on the block (c.f. attachment).... Not very clean...

And now that I've cleared the cache, I have one more error:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in form_select_options() (line 2674 of /home/web/drupal7/includes/form.inc).

i'm currently having this issue too, tokens slowing the page load.

I took a (ahem) 'pragmatic' approach and commented out the lines in #1 above.
I figure, I can live without the token generation help. In the event I will ever need it again, it will be when I am making a change on my local machine - in which case I can un-comment the lines again.

  // Display the list of available placeholders if token module is installed.
  // if (module_exists('token')) {
  //   $form['auto_nodetitle']['token_help'] = array(
  //     '#theme' => 'token_tree',
  //     '#token_types' => array('node'),
  //   );
  // }
  $form['auto_nodetitle']['token_help'] = array(
    '#markup' => t('Token help for auto_nodetitle has been commented out in code, for performance reasons (drupal.org/node/1115324).'),
  );

#10 works for me. I have finished editing the title with tokens, so I don't need the list to load every time.

BTW for those who have the same problem; the code in #10 is in modules/auto_nodetitle/auto_nodetitle.module on line 181

Some friend give me this better tip.
To preserve function, but avoid slow loading of all available tokens, you can change the "theme" form field formatter to:

(for current stable version, in line 181)

   if (module_exists('token')) {
     $form['auto_nodetitle']['token_help'] = array(
-      '#theme' => 'token_tree',
+      '#theme' => 'token_tree_link',
       '#token_types' => array('node'),
     );
   }

Please try and merge the attached patch

I can confirm the #12 works for me.
Thanks very much!

I can confirm the #12 works for me too.
Thank you very much sir_gon !

RTBC. I think #12 is ready to be committed.

This has been RTBC for a year, please commit. =)

This module has had no changes in 6 years and appears to be no longer supported. Try Auto Entity Label instead.
