Doesnt work with some themes

Hi @mtj2k,

Sorry to hear of the problem you are having.

Could you please share me the page link where you are facing the problem so that i can troubleshoot it?

Make sure you are using the latest version of MarketPress plugin.

Kind Regards,

Some themes are designed to work specifically with their ecommerce plugin such as the woo themes or the ready ecommerce themes. Trying to force one of those types of themes to work with MP Lite is probably not a good idea. Although I have tested MP LIte with a couple of woo themes without enabling the woo commerce part and it worked ok. But I believe there is an overhead cost to doing so. Plenty of themes around that MP Lite will work with. Suggestion is to GTMetrix or pingdom.com test some for speed before using them because there is a certain amount of slow down with MP Lite enabled. It would be great of WPMUDev would test the plugin and speed up the parsing order of the calls and set a cache header expire too or make it easier to set those.

Hi @flyfisher842,

Thanks for posting on the forums.

Could you please tell me are you facing performance issue with certain types of themes or with all themes including default WordPress theme?

Also please tell me whether this happens with specific pages or all so that it will help us to troubleshoot it.

Hey there @flyfisher842,

We’d love to sort out any theme issues you might have found. If you’ll just let us know more specifics we’ll gladly investigate.

This thread’s now marked as resolved as we haven’t heard back in a bit. But just let us know how we can further assist here.

We’ll be happy to help. ??

Thanks!

Not necessary to sort anything out. But I appreciate the offer. As I said some themes such as the Ready eCommerce themes are designed to work specifically with their own shop cart plugin. Some of the woo commerce themes are more oriented toward the woocommerce cart plugin.

I have testes MP Lite with both ready ecommerce themes and it just does not work as well as with regular WP themes. Plain vanilla or eCommerce ones. Same with some of the woo commerce ready themes.

Often the image settings in MP Lite conflict with the image settings in the themes is what I have seen in my testing.

I am going to use MP Lite with Virtue a woo commerce ready theme. Because this theme has an easy to use admin setup compared to some others I tested. The home page slider appears to allow, if not unlimited, a large number of images in it.The thumbs appear good compared to my twentyten theme test and text is crisp. Found the Virtue in in of Raylene’s reviews.

Another one I tested and liked was Weaver II.

All this said, go ahead and close this thread out.
