    For 1st time visit initial site loading currently there’s 1-2+ second delay after the logo and nav has rendered before header background image renders.
    Is there a way to get header image to render same time or before logo and nav elements?

    Hey ttem!

    Can you please post the link to the website? You can use cache and minify plugin to speed up the page load. Common plugins that are used are:

    Thank you Ismael, I’m using w3tc and working on speeding up load times with caching but minifying is a headache to get right. minifying html breaks layouts and haven’t been sucessful minifying css. Minified some js files, though its clear minifying is not for wimps.

    I discovered you can dequeue scripts from certain pages for example woocommerce from non WC pages which can improve load time up to 1.5 seconds in some cases. This may be something others may want to try especially with larger plugin scripts…

    cheers

    Hey!

    Looks like, at least on my end, the issue is fixed. The pages are loading very quickly and there is no visible delay for the header background.

    Cheers!

    Yes thank you Devin, I finally got the settings in W3TC to work was able to minify as well by switching to manual and removing the child theme’s style.css which breaks the layout if minified. Works much better than Super-cache and Better minify combo in my opinion.
