Hi all – thanks very much for your advice here. I followed your advice here and I’d like to review the results:
1) I would suggest using an image optimization plugin to optimize all images – I installed the WP-Optimize plug in that saved over 200 MB, per their logs.
2) setup Cloudflare CDN or re-enable Jetpack Photon – I have enabled Jetpack site accelerator (the new version of Photon). Is there any benefit to also enabling Cloudflare on top of this?
3) Make sure WP Super cache plugin settings are correct – confirmed
4) Use plugins like Autoptimize – installed
After performing all these tasks, I re-ran the PageSpeed Insights report and it still looks like I’m being penalized for items that the above processes have fixed. For example on the home page on desktop :https://www.screencast.com/t/dOQwdfG58KXs, these images have been reduced in size but are still showing up on the PageSpeed reports as an issue.
Further – on the home page for mobile there’s still images that I optimized and shrunk in size, but are still showing up on the test: https://www.screencast.com/t/dOQwdfG58KXs
I also understand that my home page has a video element that is slowing down my page, however after the above work I looked at another page that does not have video – https://www.pinkluggageabroad.com/riad/. On this speed test, the desktop report recommends I lazy load offscreen images which I’ve done via Jetpack – https://www.screencast.com/t/pzzLUPMn. The mobile report has the same lazy load recommendation and has issues with these images, which I have optimized – https://www.screencast.com/t/en9PBfEVZH7i.
I really would like to improve these scores and I appreciate your help. Thank you again.
Hi tagDiv team,
Currently I in dilemma to choose the best cache plugin for my site.
I don’t know your theme not suitable with W3 Total chache plugin.
While my hosting provider use W3 total cache plugin to make their CDN work well..
I already ask them if they have setting with WP super cache. but unfortunately,they don’t.
My question is, do you have setting for W3 total cache plugin? or, what should I do?
1. As you find optimizing images manually tricky/time consuming, I would suggest using an image optimization plugin to optimize all images on your blog.
2. After you optimize all images, you can setup Cloudflare CDN or re-enable Jetpack Photon. Cloudflare/Jetpack photon will surely help your blog to serve images faster.
3. Make sure WP Super cache plugin settings are correct.
4. You don’t need Shareaholic as the theme comes with inbuilt share buttons.
5. Use plugins like Autoptimize or Fast Velocity Minify to optimize scripts on your blog.
I hope you will find this helpful.
Hi,
Please make sure that you’ve set the W Super Cache as in our guide from here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/
Also if you are using Cloudflare (CDN), make sure that is set as in our guide too -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/cloudflare-cdn/
Let me know the results!
Thank you!
Hi,
Usually the mobile theme appear on tablet when you are using some cache plugin and cloudflare.
We recommend to use WP Super Cache -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/ and we recommend these configurations for cdn -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/cloudflare-cdn/
Thank you!
Hi,
We’ve tested only with CDN and theme plugins without any other plugins and this worked without problems.
Thank you!

Hello!
Indeed there is an issue and we have fixed it. All you have to do is to remove and re-install the tagDiv Cloud Library and everything will be fixed. Also, the plugin can be downloaded from here: http://cdn.tagdiv.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/td-cloud-library.zip
Thank you for your understanding!
ok, Thanks for replay. I already done it.
I’ ve created new block with modules based on your td-plugin-api.
Downloaded from your website:

Thanks a lot!
I have the same problem since the last update. desktoppages are shown as AMP page. i do not use CDN in WP Super Cache.
Hi Calin,
The configuration of WP Super Cache is exactly as explained on https://tagdiv.com/wp-super-cache-plugin-install-and-configure/
And I do not use any CDN.
I noticed that, if I removed “td-ht-fast-news-menu” in Extra class, then it would load faster but looks really bad (black with a standard font) before to look normal (white with the right font).
Hope they’ll find a way to solve this.
Thanks
Hi,
This problem should not appear if you are using only the WP Super Cache plugin and if the CDN is configured as in our documentation, I’ll make a note for our developers to check this situation.
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi!
In the segment where there are 4 columns side by side, it looks all fine and good at first but as you scroll down the column to the far right jumps, and places itself on top over the column to the far left. See screenshots, hard to explain. Would really appreciate a solution for this. Thanks.


Hello,
After upgrade to new version we can see a lot of database queries from theme’s plugins at open front page of site. It behaviour execute some big latency for front page visitors. Could you plese help us with this behaviour?
Site address: https://7info.ru

CDN: Cloudflare
WP Super Cache: Installed and active
Wordpress version: 5.2.4
In attachment you can see files from wp_debug pages with total queries list, wp_plaugin queries and wp_contest queries.
Best Regards,
7info admin team
Hi,
No, you can use both, but we recommend to use the CDN as in our documentation, in this way there should be no problems.
Usually this problems appear from cache, from what I can see not everything is working normally -> http://prntscr.com/pxf9v7
Thank you!
OK – we don’t use CLoudflare so I’ll see what settings our CDN has that are similar.
Also, just to clarifyu, are you saying that by using a CDN we should not use WP Super-Cache ?
Hi,
Please make sure that the CDN is set as in our documentation -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/cloudflare-cdn/ also please make sure that you do not have other cache plugin activate because this can provide conflicts.
Thank you!
So I setup WP Super-Cache following the documentation but once this is on we start noticing that the desktop starts showing the mobile amp. Although when you then start navigating around the menu it does start showing the desktop pages as expected. It looks as though something in the WP Super-Cache is wrong or perhaps our CDN. We use a CDN service from the hosts of our website called WPX Hosting.
We need some help to check over our AMP / Mobile and Super-Cache settings as I can’t see what is wrong.
That is Because I Just Disabled Both Plugins…
When I Check Page Speed Score after Enabled Two Plugins it Got Reduced Too much.
When Disabled, it increased.
So, I Simply Disabled.
Google Adsense was another reason for page speed low score, I remove ll ads scripts…
just to check the Speed and all.
