It’s absolutely ridiculous that you’re suggesting we hire your team (who botched the pagespeed to begin with) to fix the pagespeed issue we’re all seeing relating to unused plugins.
The style sheets are slowing EVERYONE WHO USES NEWSPAPER down, and you guys keep giving canned responses to ‘check out how to speed up your site here’, which doesn’t resolve the issue AT ALL.
We need a solution.
Hi,
That is not the only cache plugin that you can use with our theme, unfortunately for the moment is the only one that has been tested and we can provide a configuration for settings.
If you want you can try other cache plugins too, there are many topics on our forum about Autotomize, WP Rocket and other cache plugins, you can use any of them, but we can not help with the configuration for those plugins, sorry!

Good morning Calin,
Yes, I actually had that code in the wrong place. I have already eliminated it:
https://fotos.subefotos.com/10a5f70be7a029b913ca4e74721e2fb6o.jpg
But, the problem remains the same:
All posts have the same problem.
Is it a good idea to forget functions.php and use htaccess?

Hi I’m the developer of the website. I recommended this theme and Bluhost. it seems my guess was wrong.
PageSpeed Insights shows 15 🙁 I’m about to recommend the same theme for another client.
that will be my 3rd client with a newspaper theme. Now I’m worried to recommend because of the load time and mobile compatibility(Mobile plugin ).
I just need a fast loading site with mobile compatibility for the next client.
can you suggest/recommend how to make this fast loading site and hosting with the recommended plan?
Thanks

Hi,
Unfortunately, for the mobile theme plugin this is the only plugin that I know it is working correctly and is displaying the right version, I am sure that there are others too, unfortunately I do not know them, sorry!
Most of users use the Autoptimize plugin or others, but are use for the responsive version (they do not use the mobile theme plugin), if you want you can try this, here are some more guides for optimization without mobile theme plugin:

Thanks a loty @Calin,
I am trying these things out, but they seem to have no effect on my website. Maybe I’m doing it wrong (most likely I’m doing it wrong, actually).
How can I add rel=preload for this problem, in the funcions.php file? I’m reviewing Amit’s publications, I think they are very interesting, but for some reason they don’t work on my website.
I do it:
Removing Font Awesome
Removing Emojis
Removing other scripts
Mobile theme optimization
from de guide: https://www.infophilic.com/get-almost-100-pagespeed-newspaper-theme/
But I have the problem again, in may website soyungato.com (I never try the homepage, I only try articles/posts)

I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. I followed all the steps, but they don’t work.
Can you please help me?
Hi,
Those are icons and fonts that our theme is using.
What you can do to get better speed for newspaper.woff is to use for icons
rel="preload"
also you can use an woof editor. Here is a topic where Amit provided some more details about how you can do this -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/score-100100-pagespeed-with-newspaper-wordpress-theme/page/4/ (page 4 and 5).
Also about this https://tagdiv.com/premium-customization-services/ I do not know exactly what are the steps and what need to be done, therefore I can not say that it will provide or not a score over 900, what you can do is to submit a request there and a developer that is responsible with pages speed on custom work will answer to your question.
Hope this will help you!
Thank you for your understanding!

Hi,
What I mean above is that you have right now a very big page and if you set haft of the page content in another page you’ll get better results, or to set the content from that page in 4 pages for example if you have 100 sections then make 4 pages with 25 sections, this will improve the website.
Also what you can try is to find a way to optimize your website to load faster. here are some links that maybe can help:

Hope this will help you!
Thank you!
Thank you!
Sorry but Iam not sure to sent login to my site. Sorry for that.
Google Adsense automatic ads scanning my site. Mobile version is loaded as responsive even Iam using mobile theme. Same with Google PageSpeed Insights. Both loading and showing responsive version instead of mobile theme.
I watched my page using browser mobile simulation and it shows properly. Why Google loading my page as responsive and not showing mobile theme version?
I did get only ONE time the mobile theme visual on Google Ads settings but since then the responsive is showed only.

Hi,
This was just a suggestion to make the page for Business Directory smaller, now is not need to set each section in a new page, it will be a lot for improvements if you set the page in 2 or 4.
Also the hamburger menu is not working because you’ll need to wait until entire page will be loaded only after that this will work.
For php version we recommend to use php 7.3 but most of version of php7.4 are working too.
Also if you want to optimize your website you an try these guides from here:

There are two parts of my homepage that take more than 4 seconds to load.
This is actually a very bad thing for me. I would like to reduce this loading time as much as possible.
Can you tell me what these ads are referring to?
Can I remove something from the homepage to avoid it?

You can see this (live): https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?hl=es&url=https%3A%2F%2Fsoyungato.com
I see its a ¿icons? First of all.
Second, ¿td-multipurpose?
I’m looking for a way to fix this.
Can you help me?
Thanks, Jose

Hi!
I’m sorry that you are facing issues using Newspaper Theme. The page loading speed for both mobile and desktop depends on many factors and you can’t compare an empty theme like Twenty Twenty with a fully functional, features loaded theme like Newspaper that helps you create a website in a few hours.
We know that you requested us to optimize the page loading speed and our development team refused your invitation as your website is slowed down by the ads loading on your website. I’m sorry, we really wanted to help you, but we can’t optimize the ads as on each page load, the speed tests are waiting for the ads to get fully loaded. So, if in a specific moment, the ads server takes 10 sec to deliver the ads, your page results will display 10 sec delay added to the rest loading time.
The other recommendation was to use the Mobile theme, and now (after the last update) optimize the pages for mobile. You can find more about the new optimization for mobile in this article – https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-10-3-7-update-brings-customizable-and-fast-mobile-pages/ .
We are not deceiving customers. We are building a long term collaboration with our customers. You can see on our demos what page loading speed score can a website loaded with content can have. ca 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.
We can’t not provide a solution for you here, right now as we do not know what are the conditions on your website. You can make the following tests:
1. Activate tagdiv Composer and Standard Pack, install a standard demo and check the page loading speed, then disable the Standard Pack and activate the cloud template and install a pro demo. You’ll see that the speed will improve significantly. Also, you should consider creating the mobile optimized pages for each of your pages to improve the speed on the small screen devices.
2. Test your website in a page speed test la GTMetrix or Google Pagespeed Insights and check the loading time on the ads, fonts and tracking scripts – if there is something there that slows your website down, take action.
Our developers are constantly working on improving Newspaper Theme performance. If you need our help, please send us an email at bogdan@tagdiv.com, we’ll evaluate your client’s website and see if there is something we can do to assist you.
Thank you for your understanding!
