    After using your theme, my site became incredibly slow—so slow that I actually got scolded by my boss. I’ve tried everything to optimize the site, but even with minimal functionality, it remains sluggish; it won’t even load on mobile devices. I’m hosting with Hostinger and using your theme, yet no matter how much I optimize it, the loading speed remains painfully slow.

    Hello @jiajia,

    Please note that website performance optimization is a complex process that involves various aspects of your site, including plugin configuration, image optimization, caching, server performance, and more.

    To demonstrate the potential of our XStore theme, please refer to the following example:
    https://pagespeed.web.dev/analysis/https-woocommerce-1476984-5641372-cloudwaysapps-com/ev9tp94xax?form_factor=desktop
    As shown, our theme can achieve a score of 80+ on mobile and 90+ on desktop, which is an exceptional result for an e-commerce theme.

    We kindly recommend reviewing the following points for your website:

    – Optimize all images (use modern formats such as WebP and ensure proper compression)
    – Configure a caching plugin (for example, WP Rocket)
    – Ensure your server is optimized for WordPress and WooCommerce
    – Minimize the use of heavy third-party plugins

    All these factors have a significant impact on website speed and overall performance.

    For speed optimisation, please review our dedicated article that covers the most important theme settings to configure:

    Please note that performance optimization is beyond the scope of our support, in accordance with Envato’s support policy.

    We have tested your website using one of the popular testing tools (https://pagespeed.web.dev/), and the loading time and performance scores appear to be good:

    Could you please clarify the specific issues you are experiencing? Are they related to section loading, products, posts, or particular pages? Kindly attach some screenshots or videos to help us better understand your request and assist you accordingly.

    Best regards,
