    For some reason only the masonry style loads fast, all the other styles are loading very slow. And when I say slow, I mean REALLY slow.. Any ideas? I disabled all my plugins and still the same.

    Hi Serkan, I would but if I change the style the visitors would start sending me e-mails that my blog it is very slow. Would you like to login as an admin and see for yourself? I can provide you the username and password, just give an e-mail.

    Hi @meymigrou;
    When i disabled all your plugin, the website got faster then before. I didn’t detect any issue because of the theme. Maybe you can contact with your server people.
    Thanks

    Hi Serkan,

    First of all, thank you so much for your time and looking at my blog’s problems. This is why I am always purchase your themes for my clients.

    Did you tried to change the masonry style and check the load speed? Here’s the problem actually: Everytime I am using another style the slider goes black until the page fully load. I disabled all the plugins and checked my self with a different plugin and it still slows to load.

    I already contact with my hosting company and they said it’s the theme. I am using a VPS server with CPU 4 Core, 5GB of ram 100 GB disk space and unlimited bandwidth. My other blog loads in 2 seconds (www.homeboy.gr).

    Hi, when i check your site, i noticed that your images in the slider have huge file sizes (in megabytes), normally the theme applies re-sizing to the images but only if their resolution is higher than the limit specified, in main slider the limit is 1920px in width, which your images are smaller (about 1800px width) so they can jump over resizing but still they have large file-sizes, in this situation you have two options;

    – manually re-sizing and optimizing your images in an image editor before you upload to your site
    – or better you can automate this process by using an image optimizer plugin, here are some i came across;

    I already using EWWW Image Optimizer, but it seems that it doesn’t do a good job. I’ll try to resize the images using Photoshop, thank you for your help!
