Slow first site load

Hello,

Thanks for your great theme!

I have a performance issue on my website that uses your theme.

It seems to load several times.
I installed and configured LSCache on my website with a LiteSpeed server.
I get a very good score on desktop and mobile, but the user experience is poor.

The first time the site loads, it takes several steps (giving the impression that the site loads several times).
I’ve followed all the advice in your documentation, except for WP Rocket because I’m using LSCache with a dedicated LiteSpeed server, which is supposed to perform better than WPRocket.

Here’s a gif of the loading on desktop:

And one for mobile :

You can simply go to the site and see the problem for yourself (from the 2nd load it gets better)

Thanks in advance for your help

Hello,

We just tested your website but don’t see this problem. Have you sorted it out?

Kind Regards

Hello,

Thanks for your response, the problem is still there
You can see here the webpagetest from this morning :

I really don’t know what to do to optimize this first load, which seems to happen several times and is penalizing me in terms of google referencing. I can provide you with access to the back office if that would help…

Hello,

Please, disable all plugins that are not related to our theme and provide us with your admin access. We will log in and check what is wrong there. You can leave only the following plugins that are required for our theme:
WoodMart core
WooCommerce
Elementor/WPBakery page builder

Thank you in advance

Thank you for your help, I’ve deactivated all extensions except those mentioned and I’ve given you access to the back office.

We have activated the Litespeed cache plugin but don’t see the problem you shown on your video. Could you please check from your end?

Thank you, the problem is still there on my side (I’m using Chrome and Firefox and clean the cache for each attempt).
Here the page speed result with the same issues :

Here is the result in video :

Double loading seems to have disappeared, but the site is very long.

In general, our theme is already optimized and doesn’t have too many resources to make your website slow. Most likely, your website performance suffers from the content you have added to your website. It may happen in case of too many plugins, large not optimized images, or other resources. So we suggest you remove unnecessary plugins, install some kind of JS & CSS optimizing plugins like WP Rocket.
