    Hello, I am using Cloudflare and WP Rocket on my site and the times are ok but not great. I know great is hard with such a heavy front page with so many components etc however its the DOM size that’s really killing my speed and yet my DOM is not excessive. I noticed that you also have a speed function within the template and my question is this. What functions can I use from that which will work well with WP Rocket and Cloudflare? Its not really clear on what to do in reality. Please advise.

    What should be incorporated with your built-in speed option?

    Hello, Graeme,

    Thank you for contacting us and for using XStore.
    Your site is under maintenance mode, so we can’t check it without access.
    Depending on activated options in the cache plugin, settings in Theme Options > Speed optimization can be different.
    Currently, we can recommend to activate: Disable Old Browser Support, Disable Emoji, Disable Embeds, Disable Gutenberg Styles, Disable Theme Swiper JS (in case you are using Elementor), also Menu Cache, Ajax Search Results Cache, Static Blocks Cache, Remove Query Strings From Static Resources (when these 4 option is activation you will not see your changes for menu and content immediately, so if you are working on site still, temporary disabled these options).

    Avoid an excessive DOM size – read these posts about DOM https://docs.wp-rocket.me/article/1412-avoid-an-excessive-dom-size
    https://isotropic.co/avoid-an-excessive-dom-size-on-your-wordpress-website/ Edit your page > element settings and enable Ajaxify for some elements (not tabs and not for first elements on the page) . It should reduce the DOM structure. Also, you may try to reduce the DOM results on the page by reducing the number of sections of the page/elements in the footer or header.

    Kind Regards,
    8theme team
