    Hi, adding items to the basket is very fast but somehow updating the items quantity in the shopping cart page is extremely slow.

    Hello,

    It doesn’t look extremely slow – https://gyazo.com/0261c7b216dfd444fb739f4337cb5aed
    Ajax timeframe depends on your server and DB response time. So, to speed it up, contact your hosting provider and ask to reduce server response time, maybe check your DB structure.

    Hello,

    let me try again as I was trying on the mobile and it was very slow. Desktop seems acceptable speed. As I said adding the product on a shop page to basket is fast.

    Hello,

    We do not see any video, just a screenshot. Please provide the video.
    Also, provide temporary wp-admin and FTP access, so we can take a closer look.

    Hello,

    Add to cart speed is the same as for the desktop. It does not look slow from your video.

    Hello,

    Use the custom code to increase the size of the q-ty https://www.8theme.com/topic/and-buttons-are-quite-small-on-mobile-devices/

    Let me know if that helps you.

    Thanks, may I ask how about is it normal for updating the cart to be slower than adding items to the cart?

    Hello,

    Cart update option uses Ajax request to update that. So, its speed depends on the server response time and optimization structure of your DB. Theme does not have any extra options to speed that up, unfortunately.

    Hi Olga,

    Hello,

    Yes, they are different but their work depends on functionality they do.
    When pressing add to cart then ajax request that is responsible for that works. But when you press update cart then the request of updating cart is working.
    Time for each request depends script that should be loaded and completed, server response time, and many others factors.

    Regards
