    Hi Kriesi Team,

    Your Enfold theme is fantastic! It’s easy to use and the people I create websites for are very pleased with the results!

    While the theme is really, really great- I am having an issue with the site loading very, very slowly. I’ve searched your forums and done everything suggested to compress images and scripts and minimize the size of the site – but nothing seems to be working. Can you guys take a look at it and see if there are some settings that I need to adjust somewhere to make it run more quickly?

    Thank you so much!
    John

    Hi pabloj13!

    I tried viewing your link but your site is timing out for me. I would try contacting your hosting provider to make sure everything is ok.

    Hi Elliot,

    Thank you for looking… the site is up now- but it is running very slow (it takes more than 1 minute to load at times). All of the plugins have been disabled with the exception of the slider- which seems to have helped somewhat.

    GoDaddy insists the issue is the theme. They came to this conclusion by switching from Enfold to a default theme. When they do that, the page loads in just over half-a-second.

    Are there any scripts or anything running that I could try tweaking to get the site to load faster?

    Thanks,
    John

    Hello pabloj13,

    I moved the hosting provider of my website, that was stayed in Brazil, to Godaddy. I stayed with them for 2 days, and then I ran out!! My website simply did not open.

    The solution was to return to a hosting provider placed in Brazil (country where I live).

    At Goddady, I chose a hosting plan focused on WordPress. It was really cheap, and the details of my site was according to the plan. But, the website did not open.

    I called to Godaddy and explained the situation, and they told me that the plan that I chose was too cheap.

    Very nice! I asked my money back and hired another company.

    Hi!

    @lerama: Thanks for sharing. Hosting plan do have a huge impact regarding page speed. Availing the most affordable plan is really not advisable especially when you’re using WordPress.


    @pablo    : Install cache and minify plugins and make sure that images are fully optmize:

    http://wordpress.org/plugins/bwp-minify/
    http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-super-cache/

    I noticed that the site is loading inside a frame. Why is that? It will disable the responsive nature of the site.

    Regards,
    Ismael
