Hi @OnlyCBD,
We have conducted a thorough analysis of your website’s loading speed using prominent testing tools such as GTmetrix (https://gtmetrix.com/) and Google PageSpeed Insights (https://pagespeed.web.dev/). Based on our findings, we are pleased to provide you with tailored recommendations that aim to enhance your website’s loading time and overall user experience.
1. **Reduce The Images on Your Homepage**: Please try to optimize all the your images using Imagify(https://wordpress.org/plugins/imagify/) or Smush it(https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-smushit/) plugin.
2. **Reduction of Initial Server Response Time**: One of the GTmetrix test results highlighted the need to reduce the initial server response time. Further details on addressing this issue can be found here: https://gtmetrix.com/reduce-initial-server-response-time.html.
3. **Disabling Unused JavaScript**: If there are outdated plugins on your website that you no longer use, consider disabling the JavaScript script that loads on all pages to enhance performance. More information is available at: https://prnt.sc/jf1jbYzVaSPB.
4. **Optimization of Font Awesome Icons**: If Font Awesome icons are not utilized in your menus, you may disable the option to enqueue this library: https://prnt.sc/e48NCm3CPeCi. Should these icons be used in Elementor widgets, Elementor will automatically manage the loading of the necessary library.
5. **Activation of XStore Ajaxify Option**: We recommend activating the XStore Ajaxify option for Elementor widgets located outside the initial viewport seen by visitors upon accessing your site. You can read more about this feature here: https://www.8theme.com/topic/speed-performance-is-low-how-can-speed-up-the-site-template/#post-384938.
6. **Code Implementation for Testing**: Further enhancements can be explored by implementing the code described in the following discussion: https://www.8theme.com/topic/367470-ticket-wishlist-pagespeed-back-up/#post-367575.
7. **WP Rocket Plugin Settings**: For optimal configuration of the WP Rocket plugin, please refer to the settings outlined here: https://www.8theme.com/topic/speed-is-too-slow-can-you-check-why-as-i-tried/#post-386858.
We trust that these recommendations will significantly improve the speed and functionality of your website. Should you require any further assistance or clarification, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Best Regards,
The 8Theme Team
