Hi Guys,
This seems an odd one but my load times for items in the top navigation on the home page seem a lot slower than all the other stuff on my site, obviously once they’re cached it makes it quicker but they seem to take anything from 10 to 30 seconds to load the page.
I’ve optimised the site and the server to death with caching and htaccess changes etc and while these have had a noticeable effect on site speed of the site in general the one thing that always remain is the apparent difference in load time between the items from the home page navigation and posts from the content areas.
Maybe this is to do with how I have set up the menu items?
Let me know your thoughts
Hi
I am not sure at what items are you referring, as you don’t have a mega menu on your site and the ajax pagination in blocks works fine. If you still have this issue, please provide more details also some screenshots pointing the issue will help a lot, but meanwhile try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches, browser cache too and test again.
Thanks!
You are correct, I don’t have a mega menu
When I clear all of the caches and click any of the pages in the main nav they seem to take a lot longer to load than the posts I click
Load times for a post are typically around 2 seconds
Load times for a page are typically between 4 – 5 seconds in some cases between 8 and 11 seconds on my most recent test this afternoon.
why do you think this might be the case?
Hi
I’ve checked your site and noticed that the server response time when the index file is delivered is almost 9s: http://screencast.com/t/0yFoOW4Dz that’s why appear that delay until the page is loaded. Check in error log if there are any error related to this issue, also try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer and test again.
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks!
