Just for a point of reference on our test site under development, with 1.7.2, and no caching or tagdiv/optimizer plugin enabled. This is neither a complaint, nor solution, just an indicator of another look at “speed” on a “typical” review article page online, based in U.S.
Test article page
http://ga-ga.com/785/discwatcher-watching-films-at-home-spring-2013-a-good-day-to-die-hard/
Google Page Speed = 96 / YSlow 73* (desktop; not showing mobile results)
Page load time: 6.46s
Total page size: 2.19MB
Total number of requests: 106
*NOTE: huge number of “errors” due to GOOGLE ads/cookies/etc. with embedded YouTube video and two AdSense ads (top/right) and social media crap. Unrelated to theme.
PAGE HAS: 3 large images in article; two content blocks right side with 3 thumbnails each (6 images) and the 2 related content items below story. Total 11 images plus gravatar, and 2 logos.
14 images, 2 ads, youtube video; Google Page Speed “96” — not too shabby!
Main issues have to do with Google elements, and social media stuff. One javascript file could be compressed; YSlow hates the @style load of CSS via child theme (sigh). Images could be slightly more compressed (option to set compression level via functions file?).
For those looking at Google Page Speed vs “load time” or “payload” … ALWAYS test your “page speed” with AdSense stuff removed or you will always get upset with any WP site ranking/rating/testing. In our case, the above “96” with Google Page Speed is pretty amazing, frankly. 6 second load time, not so much (anything over 4 sec would be considered “bad” these days), but caching plugin and CDN may help with that immensely. Yslow pretty much “demands” a CDN for top speed ranking.
Our goal is 3 sec. max time for a page like that (avg 2.6 sec would be acceptable based on how some of our other sites work) and if/when I get to that, I’ll share our method of optimization, if anybody will want to know.
— PLUGINS:
* all jetpack OFF
* WP-Optimize (speed up your DB by optimizing it!)
* Akismet with site license
* Limit Login Attempts (a must!)
* Regenerate thumbnails
* WordPress SEO by Yoast
* bare minimum tagdiv provided plugins (e.g., animated GIF resize)

Thanks, dude. That did the trick.
Hello,
The image size should be at 1170px to full cover
Thanks
Hello,
To hide the featured image on some particular posts put that post as Gallery post format http://screencast.com/t/5CwL9zre6p
I am not saying to change link on logo, talking about direct image link option,
Means we can paste direct image link for logo/background.
Sorry but i don’t understand your question. Please can you be more specific.
Thanks
On mobile devices the logo overaps with the ads

If you use style 3 the link for the logo is here: http://screencast.com/t/hp1LEjwD

That didn’t seem to do the trick either. Are the dimensions of my header picture just not big enough? I believe it is currently 1100 px wide
Hello,
Menu color can be changed easily via CSS like
.sf-menu li a {
color: white !important;
}
but you have to change the color for images to is in \images\sprite\eements.png

Hello,
Try with important
.header-style-3 .td-grid-wrap,
.header-style-3 .container-fluid {
padding: 0px !important;
}
Thanks
Hey, thank you for great theme, but found few problems, whope will get in upcoming updates.
You had provided options to change header, menu background color, but no option to change menu font color.
And provided option to upload logo, background image, but also link option also needed, so we can insert logo / background image links.
I did that, and it didn’t seem to change anything?

Use from Theme customizer -> Headers style 3 and upload instead of logo you image header.
Use at last an 1074px width image.
or
Edit in /parts/header folder the file (logo_ad.php or header_style 2 and 3) and add you banner there if you want some custom header.
Thanks
1. My favicon has uploaded but does not appear
2. I would like a bigger option for a logo (which takes over the entire ad space on the right side)
3. I installed the Demo and I then set up my custom homepage to look like the demo but when I enter my websites name .com, I only see the demo and not my posts and all other featured why?
4. I just uploaded the theme do I have to manually upload any updates on filezilla? Where do I see the updates?
5. I uninstalled the entire theme and am totally confused as to how to get the theme looking like I want…
I am frustrated since I spent two hours getting the theme to look how I want and then in the end I had two different layouts, how I made it and the demo…
I really need some help with this since I read all the instructions and followed them, I am not sure why this is happening at all
Where is this “logo_ad.php file” located?
So how can I use a bigger banner logo instead of this small one?
I do not want the ad next to the logo (at the moment)
Hello,
I too tested the floating menu and it works. We are working to fix the logo.
Radu form tagDiv
