Search Results for 'cache'

Theme loads very fast if you optimize your web server and optimize WordPress, which has nothing to do with the theme. There are many tutorials online with info on how to optimize your site for WP faster loading.

Once your system is properly optimized for speed, you can also add extra features such as caching, and consider using the included WP Speed Booster (may conflict with some oddly coded plugins).

You may find the theme documentation very useful for speeding up the theme on your particular system here:

Scroll to BOTTOM of the above page for info on using W3 Total Cache with this theme, specifically 🙂

Hope that helps!

Make sure you upload only the main theme files; don’t install the “all files” zip from ThemeForest… that has docs, psd files, plugins, etc.

You want to install the smaller of the two files on Themeforest, if you’re installing via theme panel with .zip.

BEST WAY TO INSTALL WP THEMES:
Ideal way is still to
1) unzip theme folder “Newsmag” on your HD
2) upload via FTP/SFTP to your /wp-content/themes/ folder
3) upload the plugins unzipped to /wp-content/plugins/
4) switch to default theme from your old theme
5) turn off *all* running plugins
6) clear your cache(s), turn off caching (!),
7) activate the Visual Composer plugin
8) activate the new Newsmag theme
9) launch the theme panel
10) reactivate only the plugins you 100% need to make sure they work (some plugins WILL NOT WORK properly with WP 4.01 until you update the plugins!).

Clear the cache in your WEB BROWSER FULLY and restart web browser; this clears any CSS/Java used by your previous theme admin, and theme, so that you see the new CSS/JS properly (seriously, this is cause for huge number of “my new theme doesn’t load right” or “admin panel doesn’t have any boxes!” errors).

If you’re running WordPress older than 4.0 be aware there is a very serious cross-site scripting vulnerability (e.g., WP 3.9.2). You should be running WP 4.0+ to use this theme properly.

This is standard practice for switching to a brand new theme and good habit to get into doing it this way to ensure you clear cobwebs on old, and cleanly move to new.

Hope that helps! 🙂

You have a lot of plugins installed and your server response its so slow.

Use pagespeed recomendations to fix some easy problems (Y) And install quick cache.

Hmmm, now without the cache it loads unformatted first and then loads the CSS. Looks odd and clunky.

Also how do you get rid of stars under the images on the front page. We do points and it’s showing 5 stars for stuff that isn’t 5 star reviewed.

OK I figured it out. Apparently W3 Cache doesn’t actually uninstall when you remove the plugin. Here’s the info I found on how to actually get rid of it, which solved the problem: http://www.shoutmeloud.com/how-to-delete-uninstall-w3-total-cache-wordpress-plugin.html

Hi Lucian,

I have taken your suggestion and deactivated all the plugins except visual composer again today and cleared the cache however I still had the errors. I even re-uploaded the theme as per your instructions to no avail. I have again deactivated the plugins and left them off so you may have a look. I can grant you access to the backend if you need it. Email me at tammy at icidici.com (spelled out to prevent spam) and I will send you a user name and password. I am roughly 5 hours behind you so I can have the email sent to you by early afternoon your time. This site is technically live so I cannot leave the plugins turned off for an extended period of time. I have also used one of the homepage templates that can be located at http://www.icidici.com/temp-2/ but again the slide does not work. Thanks for your help.

OK upgraded to 4.5 and flushed the Google pagespeed cache. Will know the next time I post an update if it worked…

Hi Lucian:

I’ve partially solved the problems. The plugin that what causing the strange behavior with WP Super cache so I removed it. But I still have the css problem with the aweber form that was working OK. Now on The home page and 2 more categories the CSS works fine, the others no. It seem to be some kind of cache problem.

Now about the images that were scaled instead of load as thumbnails I’ll copy some examples from the gtmetrix report:

The following images are resized in HTML or CSS. Serving scaled images could save 972.7KiB (71% reduction).
Some samples below:

http://www.mujeresdeempresa.com/wp-content/uploads/2003/08/saskia-sassen.jpg is resized in HTML or CSS from 624×351 to 198×111. Serving a scaled image could save 78.7KiB (89% reduction).
http://www.mujeresdeempresa.com/wp-content/uploads/2002/04/networking2.jpg is resized in HTML or CSS from 611×427 to 198×138. Serving a scaled image could save 68.9KiB (89% reduction).
http://www.mujeresdeempresa.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/puck_poster.jpg is resized in HTML or CSS from 640×381 to 198×117. Serving a scaled image could save 68.6KiB (90% reduction).
http://www.mujeresdeempresa.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/isabel_allende.jpg is resized in HTML or CSS from 745×483 to 198×128. Serving a scaled image could save 45.3KiB (92% reduction).

The following image(s) are missing width and/or height attributes.

http://www.mujeresdeempresa.com/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/images/icons/similar-right.png (Dimensions: 6 x 9)

Any ideas?

Thanks for your help.

I removed W3 Total Cache and the issue is back. Not updating mobile version even though the desktop version is fine.

Don’t use total cache… better to have some customizations with super cache and htaccess!
