Hello, I am looking for a new free/premium theme for the first link in my signature. It is currently based upon WP-COMFY theme but the loading/latency time is high due serveral scripting used within the theme. I have chosen this theme as it gives me the possibility to show the recent added posts within a category on the homepage. This is really a must as my site is a sort of university directory. I am urgently seeking for a theme that covers the following requirements/functionalities; - Show latest posts of categories on home page !!! - Low javascript usage - Search engine optimized - Preferable XHTML / CSS / W3C Compliant (coding) - Fresh but Professional 2010 look and feel - General speaking fast loading - Fits the type of business (education) Hope to get lots of TIPS for the best Wordpress THEME for my first signature link. Thanks in advance!!
nice theme, i hadn't seen that one before. are you sure it is the theme slowing it down because I get nothing nothing nothing then bam the whole page is there as if it is your server connection being a bit dozy?
For the specific target audience (India) it can take up to 20 seconds....... I did a complete check with many tools and javascript + Jquery takes a lot of loading time. First http call takes around 3,4 seconds....
http://www.darrenhoyt.com/demo/mimbo2/ this one is pretty much image free as a basic page so if you are struggling against india being 56k it should be a lot faster.
Thanks. I know Mimbo, unfortunately it doesn't shows any categories listings on the homepage only featured posts....... thanks for your reply
it uses jQuery and loading time at http://www.webpagetest.org/result/100317_629E/ is also very long. China is used as reference point, over 20 seconds loading time. But is quite interesting as i didn't knew this one yet. Thanks
