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.
