First i’m displaying 32 posts in archives pages,
Using grid ==> 6 columns
Ads on all pages
After more than a week testing, and because ads start displaying over content, when activating some options like Js compiler, it was hard to get THE best result. Some options like Load Stylesheets in the footer make the website load very fast, but not compatible with ads.
My avada settings:
Avada Fusion builder with 14 options : ON
Avada Theme features with only: Fusion slider and CSS outlines : ON
Avada Performance options: Lazy Loading, Fonts: Swapp All, Emoji: Disable, CSS compiling: File are : ON
My WP litespeed plugin settings:
Cache: Default settings
Optimise: Combine CSS, Push CSS HTTP2, Combine JS, Inline CSS async, Load JS defered are : ON
Webpagetest.org results (4G):
For archives pages: Load time: 5.1s, repeat view: 3.6s
For pages: Load time: 5.3s, repeat view: 3.5s
Test without ads (4G):
For archives pages: Load time: 2.2s, repeat view: 1.1s (same 32 posts)
Page speed insights asked to fix the icomoon preload here is what i used:<link rel="preload" as="font"
href="/wp-content/themes/Avada/includes/lib/assets/fonts/icomoon/icomoon.woff"
type="font/woff2" crossorigin="anonymous">
Put it in Avada settings==>Extra==>Code fields==>Before </head>
Lessons i learned from this:
Test at least 3 times,
Options to check one by one and test
and Test Test Test
…it’s time consuming
