We recently activated the Newspaper theme this week with our content and noticed it loads VERY slow when we put in our advertising script code. Do you have any advice on how to speed up the loading time or is this an issue with the ad scripts?

Hi,
Well you have a bit of work to do as your site is not optimized: https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.wrestleview.com%2F&tab=desktop
Please follow this guide to improve your speeds: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/
As a note on the speedbooster plugin: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/tinymce-advanced-and-other-various-disabling-speed-boster/
Thank you!
Bogdan,
Thanks for pointing out those suggestions.
Earlier today we did the following and got these results:
* Tried the wp bootser and it didn’t help. I disabled it.
* I added the code in the .htaccess file, it helped a bit.
* We have WP Super cache enabled and configured.
The website is still running slow. Would you suggest fixing leverage browser cache, enable compression, eliminate render-blocking JS and CSS? It would see the images (which we have compressed) are causing slow load times for only the main page.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Hi,
Unfortunately we cannot help any further beyond the guide we provided. Page speed is a very personal thing that is affected starting from the host that you use, all the way down to the content of the site. Speedbooster will move all the render blocking js and css to the footer but only if you edit the code and add the other render blocks in it;s code as the guide suggests. Also speedbooster has a compatibility function that is mentioned in the topic I suggested above. If you do not remove the function, speedbooster will deactivate itself when an incompatible plugin is found.
If you require further improvement that the guide cannot provide, we suggest getting some hired help as this is a very personal thing and there is no general rule that can apply to all sites and we cannot provide any custom work at the moment.
Thank you!
