Hi Rikard

There is the WP File Manager plugin to browse the files. That is the only access I have. It was using that plugin I checked it was an empty child theme.

I just tried adding a new Enfold Child theme. It is called ochamps-theme. When I installed it the Advanced Layout Editor was working. But then I exported the theme settings from the original child theme and imported them into the new child theme, and now I have the same problem again.

So it seems to be related to something in the Enfold Child settings.

Any further suggestions please?

Thanks

I temporarily activated the parent them and that resolved the issue.

It looks like the child theme is just the default Enfold child theme unchanged. But i guess it has our client’s settings for the website.

Any ideas how we can proceed from here to get things working?

Thanks

One issue I discovered using Rocket is that delaying js in totality caused the layer slider to only load a white page besides the logo. I was able to exclude Enfold js, not all of it but what looked related to sliders, in the drop down menus of Rocket. There’s a box to white list specific js, I’ll have to research to discover the specific piece to include there.
I don’t seem to be losing the speed gained by having the whole image load. I was concerned the speed gains came from loading a white page.

The original issue remains despite being improved. I can’t imagine that little logo WebP file can be sucking up that much time. The distribution of time is mostly allocated to “load delay” so it must be something with scripts not the image itself. Again, if I drop in a non-transparent version, this all goes away, I believe it is the transparency causing the issue.
If it means anything I looked at a friends page and they have a similar issue although their theme is one that uses Elementor so this may be a WP issue and not intrinsic to Enfold?

I will re-enable my workaround to not hurt the client’s website…
You can directly look into the file I mentioned since it it normal Enfold code. In my opinion some portfolio related code shouldn’t be in this file since the archive template is not portfolio specific.

Hi,
Maybe I found the cause of the problem that can be useful to find a solution.

Check please link in Private Content, and please tell me if you think there could be a fix in a next Enfold update.

Best regards,
Oriano

I’m concerned about all things but yes, I am currently primarily looking at speed. I use Google page speed insights, pingdom and gift of speed.
I feel like I’m rooting around in the dark with my plugin selection. There are so many things that show up in a feature list that also are in other plugins or the theme itself. I hope to avoid duplication and by extension bloat and conflicts. I am imagining the user base of this forum specifically has insights into what works well with Enfold. Most of the other information I find is generalized and not necessarily applicable to a feature rich theme like Enfold.
I am happy to say that I see no signs that Enfold has any barriers to entering the upper echelons of speed scores or core vitals. Aside from one glaring issue with a particular file type I’m getting high 90’s both on mobile and desktop with some relatively rich content. I’m going to start another thread as that specific issue is a bit of a gremlin I can’t offer an explanation for.
This thread is a more general question of what’s worked well In the past?

Hi,

I did not specify it, but this footer display problem with Safari 18.3 on Mac M1 with Sonoma 14.7.3, I have it on all sites where I am using Enfold (I have several licences).

Please can you at least help me with a temporary solution?

Best regards,
Oriano
