    Hi, 

    I'm having an issue with the theme being incredibly slow. It's even slow when I'm using it on the backend while editing pages on the backend. Is there a way to fix this? Please help! My last 3 messages have gone unanswered. 

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello there,

    I apologize for the late reply, we have been getting a lot of messages daily and are trying our best to keep up with every request. I hope you can understand.

    Users can optimize site for speed, but good percentage is caused by server itself, so end users should increase performance on their own, and to to make sure that they are using reliable hosting service providers with high resources, and with fast and secure servers.

    Here are some general tips for speeding up your website, and please note, you can't minimize files like js.php and css.php, because they are dynamically created.

    1) Optimize your images with some tool: www.jpegmini.com/

    2) Also you can install some plugin for cache, like WP Fastest Cache or premium one http://wp-rocket.me/

    3) You can enable gzip compression on your server. You should paste this code to .htaccess file located in your folder:

    <ifModule mod_gzip.c>
    mod_gzip_on Yes
    mod_gzip_dechunk Yes
    mod_gzip_item_include file .(html?|txt|css|js|php|pl)$
    mod_gzip_item_include handler ^cgi-script$
    mod_gzip_item_include mime ^text/.*
    mod_gzip_item_include mime ^application/x-javascript.*
    mod_gzip_item_exclude mime ^image/.*
    mod_gzip_item_exclude rspheader ^Content-Encoding:.*gzip.*
    </ifModule>

    4) Leverage browser caching: http://www.feedthebot.com/pagespeed/leverage-browser-caching.html

    5) Use at least PHP 5.6 or greater in order to process PHP code faster, and to fix older version bugs. Note that wordpress is now recommending PHP 7.0 or greater https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/

    Hope this helps and if there is anything else that we can assist you with please don't hesitate to ask.

    Kind regards,

    Sean
