    I have Xstore running on multiple sites. On all of them the website is super slow.

    Yes I have seen the articles where you explain:
    – minimize plugin usages
    – small images for web
    – etc. etc.

    But I need those plugins. They are basic for a webshop. And it feels it’s very much the template that is causing this.

    I am running on Cloudways. I have set up Breeze. Both websites (and a third template is coming) have this speed issue. When testing my sites in Gmetrix I get a horrible result. It’s depressing.

    Dear Michiel,

    We hope this message finds you well. We have noticed that the loading speed of your websites may be affected due to the high volume of images on the pages.

    To address this, we would like to suggest the following strategies:

    1. Enable lazy loading for images to improve page load times.
    2. Compress the images using third-party plugins such as Imgify, Smush it, etc.
    3. Convert the images to the WebP format for better compression and quality.

    Additionally, we recommend installing the WP-Rocket plugin to further optimize your website’s performance. You can find detailed instructions on how to configure it with our themes at the following link: [How to Improve WP-Rocket Settings with XStore](https://xstore.helpscoutdocs.com/article/128-how-to-improve-wp-rocket-settings-with-xstore).

    Thank you for your attention to these recommendations. Should you need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us.

    Best regards,
    The 8Theme Team
