Dears,

I would appreciate your advise. I recently purchased WP Rocket plugin to remediate ongoing problems with pages speed. It worked nicely on one site but on the other one effect is close to zero. Page still has E/F ranking in GTMetrix and 44/55 in PageSpeed Insights.

Would you be able to recommend the best way moving forward? I am sharing WP Admin access in the PC

Please, contact administrator
for this information.

Dear @Namaste,

We kindly ask you to first ensure that all system requirements are properly configured. Additionally, please review our article on optimizing WP Rocket settings for use with the XStore theme, which can be found at the following link:
https://www.8theme.com/documentation/xstore/troubleshooting/how-to-improve-wp-rocket-settings-with-xstore/

Once you have completed these steps, we also recommend updating both the XStore theme and the XStore Core plugin to their latest versions.

Should you still require further assistance after implementing the above recommendations, please do not hesitate to reach out. We will be happy to investigate the issue further at that time.

Best regards,
Jack Richardson

Dear @Namaste,

We hope this message finds you well.

Upon reviewing your website, we noticed that certain settings within the WP Rocket plugin are currently disabled. To help enhance your website’s performance, we kindly recommend reviewing and enabling the following key features:

– Remove Unused CSS: https://docs.wp-rocket.me/article/1529-remove-unused-css
– Load JavaScript Deferred: https://docs.wp-rocket.me/article/1265-load-javascript-deferred
– Delay JavaScript Execution: https://docs.wp-rocket.me/article/1349-delay-javascript-execution

Additionally, we observed that your website has approximately 30 active plugins. We suggest reviewing and deactivating any unnecessary plugins, as having too many active plugins may negatively impact your website’s loading speed and overall performance.

Should you need any assistance or further clarification, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Best regards,

Dear @Namaste,

We hope this message finds you well.

It appears that the WP Rocket plugin has removed some custom CSS code from the first section of your website. To resolve this issue, we recommend assigning an ID to the first section and then adding this ID to the safelist. You may refer to the following screenshot for guidance:

For more detailed information, please consult the following article from WP Rocket’s documentation:
https://docs.wp-rocket.me/article/1718-troubleshoot-remove-unused-css-issues

Kindly note that website speed optimization falls outside the scope of our standard support services. However, if you would like personalized assistance from our development team, we invite you to submit a request through our Customization Panel:
