How to speed up site load time
-
Hi there,
Just wondering on if you have any tips on improving page load time on a Lay website?
I know wordpress isnt the speediest CMS but the site I have made for an artist is a bit slowwww...
Theres not even a huge amount of content. Even the contact page which is literally 2 lines of text can take 5 or more seconds to load up...
Theres quite a bit of script in the custom head HTML - could that be slowing it down?
Thanks

Hey Duncan,
can you provide us with a link to your website?
Can you deactivate your custom code to see if this solves the issue?
All the best!

Need custom programming for your Lay Theme site?
I regularly add new features to Lay Theme for free, based on user feedback. But if you or your client need something more specific, I’m happy to offer custom paid programming tailored to your project.
Email info@laytheme.com with the subject "Custom paid programming for Lay Theme" and a short description of what you need — I’ll reply with a cost estimate.
Custom features I build often make it into future Lay Theme updates, so your idea might benefit the whole community.
Before you post:
- When using a WordPress Cache plugin, disable it or clear your cache.
- Update Lay Theme and all Lay Theme Addons
- Disable all Plugins
- Go to Lay Options → Custom CSS & HTML, click "Turn Off All Custom Code", click "Save Changes"
This often solves issues you might run into
When you post:
- Post a link to where the problem is
- Does the problem happen on Chrome, Firefox, Safari or iPhone or Android?
- If the problem is difficult to explain, post screenshots / link to a video to explain it
