Storefont Theme – “Touch targets do not have sufficient size or spacing”

Hello @nunowp thank you for posting in the forum. While your question isn’t related to WooCommerce core and not supported here, I’ll assist in asking anyway, where are you seeing this error message? In GSC? If so, you can ignore it. It happens all the time and it’s trivial. If not, then please submit a screenshot of the error and or more information like a url and area to view.

Thanks

Hi, thanks for your reply.
The problem is with pagespeed insights
here’s the screenshot

Hello @nunowp this error / warning is the exact same thing that GSC reports as well. As I stated some things we can just ignore them.

Now if you had a clear overlap then that would be an issue, but I’m not seeing that.

Hi @nunowp

In addition to what @serafinnyc mentioned, you can also try clearing your site cache and transients, which might resolve the issue. To do so, head over to WooCommerce → Status → Tools, and do the following:

• WooCommerce transients – Clear
• Expired transients – Clear
• Clear template cache – Clear
• Capabilities – Reset Capabilities
• Clear customer sessions -Clear

Next, please clear your site cache and then test again.

I hope this helps! Please let us know how it goes or if you need further assistance.

Hello,
Thanks for your reply.

I did the procedures but the problem persists. I agree that it is a minor problem, however it negatively affects the google page score and did not happen before the update.

It does not negatively affect your score. It is like 0000000000000.1% of anything if at all. Almost 200M websites have that issue and no one is focused on it. Believe me. I own and run an agency that manages these things on a daily basis.

It actually affects 4% less in the pagespeed insights accessibility score. I used to get 100% before the theme update, which is why I asked the question.

But I fully understand that the support staff have other more important issues to deal with.

Thanks for your attention anyway.

Hello @nunowp as this is not a WooCommerce support question it doesn’t qualify for this forum per guidelines, but I’m former Woo Support so I can help and answer and so can the others if they feel.

Like I said, if you focus too much on those you’ll be missing out on things. I never have paid any attention to that message. It occurs everyday on so many sites. It’s like breathing air. We all do it.

I should have also stated too, if you want to do something about it, then add CSS to margin them away from each other or whatever the insight is calling for.

.button {
    min-width: 48px;
    min-height: 48px;
    padding: 12px;
    font-size: 16px;
}

However, I would choose user experience over PS score any day.
