Hi,
I just received an email from my hosting and they told me that my website is using too much bandwidth. could this be a theme problem? I have the latest version of newsmag installed and I think all the plugins are up to date too.
Check system status panel in the theme control panel.
Make sure enough memory allocated to WordPress.
Consider simplifying number of modules used, types of queries, etc.
Consider turning some stuff off, like flyout “yuo might like,” “related posts” at bottom of pages, and use just ONE module/block type on sidebars; remove modules from footer, etc.
Make sure you’re using PHP 5.6x vs 5.4x, as 5.6x has opcache which helps.
If none of that does it — you can stop using pesky Visual Composer; and try the BETA TagDiv Composer (see sticky post top of forum) — which is simpler page builder and which we’re now using across our news network and no longer use VC for anything (as it is often the resource culprit every third version!).
