hi,

it is possible to make the secondary drop down menu to be fixed in the header? To show the secondary menu when you scroll down?
Something like on this site http://www.livoloromania.ro or http://www.emag.ro… so you can check all the categories even when you are at the bottom of the page.

Also, I observed that the site loads very slow and the server shows (99%) CPU and Memory usage in Cpanel. My other opencart store uses the same hosting and works fine. Could you please advise me something? I should use a better hosting for this shop?

thanks.

Hello,

Unfortunately, secondary menu is not included in the fixed header and it’s possible to show it there only by additional customization.

Follow the steps below to speed up your site:

1) Plugins. When you have multiple plugins installed and activated on your site, it can slow it down. So, please, keep enabled only those plugins that you really need for the correct functioning of your site and disable all the plugin that you don’t use. The more plugins you use, the slower it will be.

2) Caching. The most important part of optimizing your site is caching. Combine cached page with gzip compression to get better results. We recommend using W3 Total Cache. Read the beginners guide to setting up W3 Total Cache plugin https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/w3-total-cache-settings/
Also, a very good plugin is WP Rocket, but it’s paid.

3) Images. Use optimized images only otherwise you will have big images and a slow loading time. Do not upload larger images than what is needed. When you use image editing tool like Photoshop don’t save images without using the option “Save For Web”.
There are different ways on how to compress images. Use special services or WordPress plugins to optimize your images for decreased loading times:
– tinypng.com
– Compressor.io
– Kraken.io
– Ewww Image Optimizer
– Smush Image Compression and Optimization plugin

4) Server/Hosting.
Sometimes slow speed can be a result of your hosting service. If you have checked the above items and the site is still slow, the most likely it is a server/hosting issue. Contact your host and discuss it with them. Because even with the default WP theme site speed could be slow.

In case you need professional help with site optimization you may contact wpkraken team.
