Slow Loading or Lag on Collection Pages
If your collection pages are loading slower than usual after enabling Subcollection Category Surf, it could be due to a few common causes.
Performance optimization tips:
-
Limit Number of Subcollections Displayed:
- Too many blocks with large images can affect load time.
- In Main Block Settings, try showing only 4-6 subcollections per parent.
-
Optimize Image Sizes:
- Go to each child collection and upload compressed, web-optimized images.
- Avoid uploading raw high-resolution images larger than 1MB.
-
Disable Lazy Load Temporarily:
- If you use third-party lazy load scripts or apps, try disabling them briefly to see if there's a conflict.
-
Theme Script Conflicts:
- Some custom or heavily modified themes may load conflicting scripts.
- Contact our support team with your theme name, and we’ll run a compatibility check for you.
Pro Tip: Subcollection Category Surf is built for performance, but combining it with too many external apps, sliders, or auto-loaders may cause strain on older themes. Reach out to us for a full performance audit if needed.
