I’m looking for any advice to improve my Cumulative Layout Shift rating?
Website – https://www.anoopcnair.com/
I have already gone through https://gtmetrix.com/cumulative-layout-shift.html but not sure how the NewsPaper theme can help to improve the rating.
I know it will come to the auto advertisement by AdSense. How to improve the experience of this ?
Hello !
The main “issues” from what I can see here: https://www.screencast.com/t/69vUQZDM0F your autoptimize setting seem to be not so precisely made. Also it seems that you are using a lot of fonts, we recommend using 1-2 maximum fonts.
Thank you !
Hello – Thank you.
What is the recommended setting from the Theme’s perspective, please?
How to stick with one font? any tips
Hello !
We do use autoptimize but it is pretty hard because a standard setup will not work. You have to tweak each setting in order to make it fit your website. We only recommend using WP Super cache at the moment.
Thank you !
Ok. Thank you.
So, does that mean if I use WP super cache, it would be easy to standardize the font size etc?
Hello !
Please note that there is no relation between a cache plugin and your web design. You need a good caching plugin to keep your site cache-free. That will make it run better.
For the fonts, it seems that you are using pretty much, I would suggest you using the website manager and set 1-2max fonts. You can see the website manager once you open your tagDiv Composer: https://www.screencast.com/t/BqckHolMuY
Thank you !
Hello – Unfortunately I can’t find any fonts there on website manager https://snipboard.io/RpXHAt.jpg
Am I missing something
Hello !
Can you let us know what demo are you using ? That can be found in your system status bar here: https://www.screencast.com/t/Wiz6xqvVqj2
Thank you !
I have not installed any demo. This is live website and I don’t see the option that you highlighted in the above screen capture
Hello !
That means that you are using the fonts from Theme Panel – Theme Fonts. By default the fonts used are Roboto and Open Sans.
Thank you !
Does that mean I should not have this issue?
Hello !
It means that there is no problem if you don’t see the fonts there. It is ok.
Thank you !
I think we discussed above that the https://www.screencast.com/t/69vUQZDM0F and mentioned that lots of fonts could create problems. I’m a bit confused now.
Hello !
I am sorry for misunderstanding your issue.
Those 3 things that I pointed are the ones who eat the most resources. 2 Are from Autoptimize plugin, which I said that you should check Autoptimize settings in order o reduce the loading on them. And the Google Syndication ad.
This is what you need to address in order to the lower your cumulative layout shift rating at the moment.
Thank you !
Ok Thank you
