    Hi,

    we are currently evaluating GeoDirectory and are having issues with the performance, it does take more than 6 seconds to load the index page on a 3G connection and tranfsers ~ 700 KB.

    So we’ve checked the demo and are seeing similar issues there, the page does take about 10 seconds to load and transfers ~ 1.1 MB.

    https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?hl=de&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwpgeo.directory%2Fsupreme-directory%2F&tab=mobile

    Google recommends that an average page has a speed index of less than than 2.5 seconds, does not perform more than 50 requests and has a total weight of less than 500 KB.

    https://www.afasterweb.com/2018/03/21/current-mobile-page-size-and-some-general-guidelines/

    How can we setup GeoDirectory to comply with this?

    I have flagged your question for the developers to respond.
    We have some general notes about performance here:

    Hello,

    We have done nothing but the very basic stuff to the demo site. Its load times are decent but could be improved with some individual tweaking https://tools.pingdom.com/#5abe542a7a400000

    Things like above/below the fold stuff is individual to each site and can very much depend on which other plugins you have running.

    Unfortunately, Pingdom ist not that great as they only seem to measure desktop performane which isn’t meaningful in a mobile first world.

    WebPageTest, as recommended by Google, does produce meaningful results:
    https://www.webpagetest.org/result/190527_YE_8d3c0253c579bb067fbca5e2926d075c/

    While we can of course use Plug-ins like WPTotalCache, Autoompimize, etc., they seem to be unable to reduce the amount of JS and CSS in such a way to get the total page weight below 500 KB:
    GeoDirectory loads a huge amount of JS files ad CSS even on the frontpage which (like your demo) does basically just contain a search box:

    So the question remains:
    How can we setup GoDirectory to load only the resources JS & CSS that are really required on a page?
