Slow site and theme doesn't update

[Øystein]

Our site is very slow at loading frontend, as well as in the backend. I think it may be our amount of events and data, at the moment we have 339 events total (where 189 are published and the rest are drafts). I think/hope not it is our hosting, but do you know what I can do to make it fast and normal again? I have tested without all the other plugins, as well as using the default wp-themes.
I’m also trying to update the design with ftp and nothing is happening frontend on the live site, I’ve tried deleting my own cache and the wp-super cache plugin. I really need help on this one, it’s a big project and it can’t really function without the proper speed.
Thanks for all advice.

Hey,

Thanks for reaching out to us!

I’m sorry to hear about the performance issues on your site. Does the slow loading persist if you disable the events calendar plugins?

The number of events could be an issue with your current hosting configuration. Before pursuing that route, you can take a look at a couple of things:

• Are you taking advantage of any caching on the event pages? if not, this can help with the performance of those pages.
• If you have a lot of events within a single month, you may want to switch to using the list view as the default view. Depending on your settings, using the calendar view could potentially be querying 100s of events on a single view which would definitely impact performance.

For the changes to your site not showing. Are you trying to make customization to the calendar view but they’re not showing?

Thanks!
