Hello,

Please check the issue on one of the default themes to understand if our theme causes the problem.

Best Regards

It is the theme. Please correct.

Also, since I updated the theme, the site is very slow. Can you tell me why? And correct?

Hi,

Could you please send us a screenshot of how it works with default WordPress theme?

And what kind of speed problems do you have? Please, provide us some information with screenshots so we can check it.

Regards

HI. i can’t send the screenshot now as this site is production and it is black friday, so it has to be working. And properly. right now it takes around 20 – 60 seconds to load the home page. before the update it was 3-4 seconds. Need this fixed asap

Most likely, you disable reviews for that products since it doesn’t depend on our theme and on its update https://www.templatemonster.com/help/woocommerce-how-to-enabledisable-reviews-remove-reviews-tab.html

Could you please disable all plugins that are not related to our theme and provide us your admin access so we can check the speed problem?

Thank you in advance

Hi, like i said, I need this site to be live. I can’t disable or take down anything right now. I have provided my login details in my response above. The reviews were working fine before the theme was updated. And they are still working fine, it’s just for a few products. Please correct the speed issues asap. The only plugins enabled that are not related to the theme are payment gateways and things like that. they will not slow down theme.

As we said, reviews are not our theme functionality and they can’t be broken because of the update. Check if they enabled on your website first.

We can’t check the performance problem while you don’t disable external plugins. We need 5 minutes to check that.

Since you have the login can’t you just disable the plugins for the 5 minutes and put them back? You know what you are doing more than i do. I also spoke with WP Engine my hosting company and they tell me that you guys are using a lot of the autolaod data and this is causing a problem specifically this : wdp_un_updates_data row

I fixed the reviews. They weren’t enabled for those products.

Hi,

wdp_un_updates_data row is not a part of our theme and comes with some of the installed plugins. That is why you need to disable these plugins first and which one causes this performance problem.

Regards

It would be best if you disabled them bc I don’t know what goes with the theme. Please re-enable the ones you disable.

Here is a list of required plugins that shouldn’t be turned off

WPBakery Page Builder
CMB2
Redux Framework
Woodmart Core
WooCommerce

they are de-activated. but can only leave off for 5 minutes

Hello,

As soon as you have deactivated the plugins reviews now working on the products https://gyazo.com/41adddfcabc3bbdb10cd2f6e1fe14aee

Activate your plugins one by one to detect which one causes the problem.

Best Regards

Do you guys even read these?

I said that the reviews were fixed because they weren’t enabled for those specific products. Had nothing to do with the plugins.

My issue is the speed of the site. Ever since I updated the theme it is now taking over 60 seconds to load when before it loaded in 5-6 seconds max. This also has nothing to do with the plugins because I haven’t added any new once since updating. This is an issue with the theme. I need you to honor the support that I have paid for and correct the issue instead of suggesting that I do things when I know they have nothing to do with the problem.

Sorry, it was a mistake response from us.

We still need to check how it works without external plugins. Have you measured the site speed while you disabled all external plugins? Are we allowed to do the same now and check without plugins?

I did check and it was still much slower than before the update.You can check now. Will you be able to re-enable the exact plugins that are disabled? Please let me know when you do this.

We tested the website speed without all plugins and yes, there is a large number of requests that make your home page slow that don’t appear on other pages https://gyazo.com/ea49d581f1624ed7d634f0d92cfbb386
They all related to YouTube video and they load slowly on default WordPress theme as well. Try to temporarily remove all videos from your home page and test the performance. Write us when you will remove them so we can check as well.

I disabled and there is still no improvement. Everything was fine here until I updated the theme.

Your current home page loading time is about 3-4 seconds. There are also ~40MB of images loaded on your home page so they can make your website really slow.

What can I do here ? How can I make the 40mb in half ?

You need to review all your images and optimize them or remove if they are not required. We see some images are 1.5MB+ size and that is very large size.

Can you direct me to the large ones please?

You can check them in the Google Chrome console – Network tab https://gyazo.com/1084498bcc5a909110e7f157c1d5f692
Here are a few of them

hmmm. I just checked and those images are fairly small. One is 600kb and the other is 459kb. what else could it be?

This image is 1.7MB https://gyazo.com/2b9bcc045e80c1ed232f634157de488e

Hmm, you must have a cached version. I do not see this image?

Browser cache is disabled on our side https://gyazo.com/6865a824953b6602bca53483fdb2da43
