memamjomeh 0 Report post Posted October 29, 2010 Thank that is a helpful tool; however, I have been studying this problem for a week now and one thing i found was that compressing scripting would speed up loading time. So after a day of messing with that i realized that if i switch to the default wordpress theme my site loads instantly. When i switch to station pro it loads in 8 seconds average. Have you guys thought about compressing your theme? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cmunns 16 Report post Posted October 29, 2010 Yes, but compressing many parts of it would make it virtually uneditable such as the CSS files. I would try a caching plugin. Also, it shouldn't be eight seconds as we definitely spent time optimizing the themes to be as fast as possible and that is a near eternity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Could you maybe navigate through and let me know what you think is making it 8 seconds because thats the average loading time =( Beautiful theme though! You guys rock and i love the new stuff you guys are comming out with pretty insane. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
