Slow load

Hello @robinpettersson,

Regarding the speed optimizations, please follow the steps explained following:

GTmetrix Grade:
First, I should know where is the website server! So I always recommended the users using the CDN so that issue is fixed automatically! Mostly more than 60% in performance.

Page Details:
It shouldn’t have many heavy files, so sometimes “1.35MB” may is a large number, like this one: https://i.postimg.cc/YqfBxX9P/image.png.
I’ll suggest reducing file sizes!

Minifying Assets:
To reducing all assets file on websites, using minified tools, combine tools and cache plugins do all of them in one package. They should upload all images lighter.

Server Optimization:
TTFB; This is related to the host configurations, and users should use the compatible host with WordPress. (LINK).

Then above steps: You have to solve a series of problems that, for example, GTMetrix suggests.

PageSpeed tab:
The PageSpeed tab is the default active tab when you run a GTmetrix test. It grades your website against Google’s PageSpeed rules.

Performance tab:
Here you can find the problems caused by each loaded asset on your site with its description.

The Waterfall tab:
is a bit advanced, but it’s a handy tool to understand how the different parts of your site load and where there might be small bottlenecks that slow down your entire site.

I found another link for you that has useful content that can help you in this regard:

Hello and thank you for your reply.

Main problem is working in the admin area on the site. It takes about 5s just to browse to the plugins page (same on all admin pages). With MEC inactivated it loads in about 1s.

Any idea how to fix this?

Thanks,
Robin

Hello @robinpettersson,

Regarding the dashboard speed:

1- Please check the “TTFB” issue on the backend of your website:

I’m having a similar issue with the PRO version. The backend admin area is fine but when I click on the Events section of my site, it takes FOREVER to load. I didn’t have this issue with the Lite version but the PRO version brought the page to a 30second load time. I have assets turned off but it didn’t make a difference. I like this plugin but my lord, no one will come to any events if they can’t even get the page to load in a reasonable amount of time. What else can I do??
