Content Load Time Discrepancy in XStore Theme

Dear 8Theme Support,

I’m a big admirer of the XStore theme and appreciate the high level of professionalism it delivers. While exploring the theme’s capabilities, I’ve noticed a potential area for improvement in both the XStore theme and its demo themes.

During initial page load, the header and footer render swiftly, but the content section occasionally exhibits a delay of several seconds. This creates a brief period where users see a blank page, which can be perceived as unprofessional.

To illustrate this, I’ve included:

A screen recording of the minimal theme demo exhibiting the delay: https://drive.google.com/file/d/11bzyvaPVaHe7WbTPtP8EIRoK7CnHP5Zb/view?usp=sharing

A link to the minimal fashion demo for your reference: https://xstore.8theme.com/elementor/demos/minimal-fashion02/ (Please try scrolling quickly down the page after loading).

Would it be possible to address this issue by implementing a loader after the header renders? This would provide a more seamless user experience.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

P.S. This issue of course applies to my own site, but I thought that addressing this as a global problem would fix this for everybody and the fix would be appreciated by many.

Sincerely,
Don

Dear Don,

We hope this message finds you well.

Please find the demo loading on our end via the following link: [Demo Load Video](https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/video/33389645?key=1394af5fd8bc8e722a729b1767c47074).

Are you referring to the loading icon that appears on each widget? This icon is part of the Ajaxify feature in the XStore theme. If you would like to disable this feature, you can follow the instructions provided in the link below:
[Guidance on Disabling Ajaxify](https://www.8theme.com/topic/my-website-is-extremely-slow-on-mobile-i-have-checked-all-settings/#post-401212).

Should you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Best regards,
The 8Theme Team.
