My Website is using Newspaper Theme and there are other pages on the website also.
The images on my Newspaper posts pages (Home Page, News Page, Events Page) have suddenly become very slow to load – 20 seconds. The images on other pages on the site load quickly. (eg. https://www.hazelgroveweb.co.uk/visitors/hazel-grove-picture-gallery/ – https://www.hazelgroveweb.co.uk/hazel-grove-services-shops/)
Also I have 3 other websites using virtually identical settings – Themes, Plugins etc but different content and they are not experiencing this issue.
Slow pages:
https://www.hazelgroveweb.co.uk
https://www.hazelgroveweb.co.uk/hazel-grove-news/
https://www.hazelgroveweb.co.uk/hazel-grove-events/
https://www.hazelgroveweb.co.uk/hazel-grove-club-news/
Other sites using same theme etc.

https://www.poyntonweb.co.uk/poynton-events/
https://www.bramhallweb.co.uk/
https://www.cheadlehulmeweb.co.uk/
It’s strange that it’s just the one website that is having this problem and it happened recently after several months of no issues. Can you help me fix this?
Hello,
Upon checking the console, it appears that the website is unable to locate an image and is trying to load it from the following URLs:
I suggest verifying whether this image is set as a background under the mobile menu or search background in the EWSapper > Theme Pane > Background section. You can check here:
If the image is present, simply remove it and save the settings. Afterward, please clear all cache. This should help improve the website’s loading speed.
Once this is done, we can check if the website is loading faster and assess what further optimizations can be made.
Thank you!
