Hi Bettina,
Thank you for your input regarding my issue. But my question here is that if theme support does not check the issue related to speed then why is that in the portfolio of the theme you have shown the performance optimizer with a GTmatrix rating 98%. I have used that CSS optimizer but it does not work and the performance according to GTmatrix is very low. Is this performance optimizer plugin of the theme also not covered in support?
PS: I have the latest theme version and latest WordPress setup. No third-party plugin except for “Code Syntax Block” is used. I have tested the website without that plugin as well the results are the same.
Regards,
Vikrant

After some testing, I find that by deactivating the “SiteGround Optimizer” plugin, the problem with the TagDiv logo disappears… But this didn’t happen before version 11.1, any idea what could have changed?
Hi Calin, we are not using any child theme. To optimized you mean SEO plugin or Cache Plugin?
Hi,
This seems to be strange, our theme has that code added -> https://i.imgur.com/EHvDiD4.png and is no need by extra plugin for it.
Indeed when I checked your website, those are not there, maybe it is from an extra plugin that you are using for optimize the website, please make a test only with theme plugins. Also if you are using child theme, please test it with the parent theme.
Let me know the results!
Thank you!
I think this is not the right answer for his problem. It’s an internal problem.
Using groupby in sql statements in connections with a lot’s auf joins is not good
solution. Here is much to optimize in the theme-code.
The sql-quieres seams to be inefficient codes.
Can you please fix that with your team.
reproduce: create 100k Post / 30k taxonomy
– use the theme in version 11.1
– an than optimize the queries/theme with query monitor.
Thx for help.

Hi,
The Core Web Vitals is apply on all devices, (desktop, mobile, amp), usually, the fervent problems are on mobile and desktop, the amp version most of the time do don’t have problems because is a quick preview from google (it is not actually on your website).
And yes, you can achieve it without amp plugin, all you need to do is to optimize your website.

Hi garimanag,
Unfortunately, your screenshots are not working.
We also have live website with images and we do not have those problems, now indeed maybe are not the bet optimize and the website page speed depends on more elements, for page content, ads, external resources …
First, I want to make sure that I was able to inform you of all info about the mobile versions that our theme can have.
1. Responsive version, this is by default when you install the theme and you do not use mobile page or mobile theme plugin.
2. Mobile page/template this allows you to create with tagDiv Composer and cloud a different layout and set different elements for mobile and iPad/tablet and it will overwrite the responsive version.
3. Mobile theme plugin, this is a light theme version for mobile that will overwrite the mobile page and responsive version if enabled.
So when you have a mobile page/template this will be used instead of a responsive version, but if you also have the mobile theme enabled, this one will override both of them.
How to combine them? Yes, this can be possible, for example the mobile page/template will apply only on that page or cloud template that is assigned. But what to do if you want to use a mobile theme plugin too? If you use mobile theme, in Gutenberg editor it is an option to disable the mobile theme in current post/page, if you use the option, then it will be use the mobile page/template (if is assigned) or the responsive version.
So in your case you can disable the mobile theme on the homepage -> https://i.imgur.com/NX57q4t.png or if you do not want it at all, disable the plugin or use it only for amp -> https://i.imgur.com/Grlz5Ee.png.
Here is also a video that explains all those -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpGkOnJeNZY
Hope this will help you!
Hi CHKSN,
If I understand correctly, for you the mobile theme plugin is displaying on desktop, if is so, then indeed this is from the cache plugin that you are using, some for theme do not have support for mobile themes, some of plugins that do have are: WP Super Cache plugin, WP Rocked plugin.. Please make a test without cache plugin and see if the problem persist or not, if the problem is solved, then you need to check if your cache plugin have mobile theme support.
Also if you want, we can take a look at your website, for this please make a full backup and contact us at contact@tagdiv.com, provide wp-admin and cPanel access, also include the link of this topic in email.
Thank you!

Can you suggest a single plugin that is more useful and performs the best? We are considering purchasing with a plugin that will optimize images, optimize the database, and pass the speed test. I can’t do business with the site day and night.

Thank you!
Hello,
The page speed is not related only to the theme that you are using, this is affected by plugins/content/ads/ external resources, etc.
I just checked your website and it looks that your images used on the map => https://www.screencast.com/t/YK8KTa7qT are not optimized, for example, you can use the EWWW Image Optimizer plugin, also, you can try other plugins like Autoptimize, but I am not sure if it works on the images from this map (you can contact the authors of the plugin and ask how you can set the height and width on images if you succeed then you will have a better score). Your website needs an optimal speed that’s why you need to make some settings also to help for the improvement.
Also, to increase the page speed you can check these similar topics for more solutions:

– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/a-few-tips-for-newspaper-x-speed-high-cpu-usage-issues/
– https://tagdiv.com/how-to-increase-page-loading-speed/
However, page loading speed can depend on many factors, and each website is unique from this point of view.
Let me explain some of these factors and maybe they give you some starting points for optimizing your website.
External factors: server speed, if you are using CDN or not, the external resources loaded by your website like ads, fonts, tracking scripts like Facebook Pixel, Google Analytics, Twitter analytics, Hotjar and so on.
Internal factors: the number of elements on the page, image size, image formats, if you are using mobile optimized layouts, console errors, if you are using the Standard Pack plugin on not if you are using PRO demo or a standard one.
Also, you can try to update on a staging website or subdomain the theme to version 11 and try our tool https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tnkVapqhIHc
Our tool is running only on normal pages and not for posts or categories for example.

Why is my website‘s mobile Google test slow?
Use PageSpeed Insights to test.
My score is only 20 points.
The newspaper 10 I bought last year.
You are now 11.
I tested your website just now, and the mobile terminal score is 90 points.
Can you help me analyze why my website score is so low?
I tried to enable your mobile speed optimization plugin.
But after enabling this plugin.
You need to edit the content of the mobile terminal separately, and you cannot use templates.
I cannot accept this.
So how can I optimize my mobile site?
Hi bilecikdostlari,
Indeed to optimize the website is not quite easy, we also use a few plugins for this (Autoptimize, Download
EWWW Image Optimizer, WP Super cache, CSS Analyzer from Newspaper theme), we use plugins cache, optimize plugins for images and so on.
Also for mobile version now we use the mobile page/template, but some users still prefer the mobile theme plugin. Both of theme provide better results then the responsive version.
Thank you!

Hi,
I. Indeed on desktop the best place is in sidebar, but for mobile version most of the time this is set at the bottom of article.
II. For the moment tagDiv Newsletter is the only one that our theme has, we hope to add more in the coming updates.
III. Yes, using a popup subscriber form is an idea, and normally, those should be optimized to not affect your SEO, but this depends on plugin that it is used.
Thank you!
Hello!
my website! Banglaseba
see the list of active third party plugins those i am using,
1- AMP
2- Easy Table of Contents
3- Jetpack
4- Rank Math SEO
5- Shortpixel Image Optimizer
6- WP Super Cache
I installed mobile theme manually. please see the attached screenshots.
https://imgur.com/Z376Y7Y
https://ibb.co/M5H0Hby
———————
If possible please let me know for image optimization which plugin should i use if not shortpixel?
and i like using rank math SEO.
kindly let me know if there is any problem from these mentioned plugins.
Ok, thanks for the response. That’s very unfortunate as we were about to launch a large site that heavily uses these elements throughout and discovered this while doing some optimization tests. We are going to have to go through the entire site redo all the images. I’d consider this a pretty significant issue/bug with the tagdiv composer. At least make users aware of this somehow.
This would be a much needed improvement. Either recognize and use the size image select from the wordpress image selector (thumbnail, medium, large, full, etc), or allow to select from one of tagdiv theme image sizes enabled.
Please put this on the priority improvement list. Once the site is handed over to the users they aren’t expected to have to precrop resize and compress every image before uploading and it’s going to be impossible to keep the site optimized.
Thank you. Great theme, but there have been some significant and expensive battles with it along the way.
Hello!
Due to the complexity of the theme the best option to have an optimized theme is to have shortcodes for all the elements. Unfortunately adding hooks to a template is not an option in here.
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi anweshak_10, most of the time this kind of problems are related to some extra plugins, it can be from cache plugin (usually is related to plugins that optimize the JavaScript code), please make a test without cache and optimize plugins and see if the problem is persisting. If there is no problem after testing, please check the cache plugin settings.
Let me know the results!
