    Hi there, and thanks for your great plugin.
    Performance of my site is 99 and 94, when running google page speed insights.
    When I activate the slider in the home page, it goes down pretty much 50% on the mobile phone version… any idea how can I fix it? I tried all options I can think ok…

    PC: 97.
    Phone: 50

    Thanks!

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi @jesusgpastor!

    I’m sorry, but having a slider on your page will decrease your score with about this value, so this is a normal result. While you have a small amount of content, like without our slider you have 8 images on your page, Google will give a good result on phones, but after that if you insert anything else to your page, in this case a slider with 9 images ( = 7 slides + arrows + shadow) the mobile score will drop exponentially. So a slider might doesn’t looks like a lot of content, because it only occupies a small space, in many cases it is actually more content than what you had on your page.

    First what I suggest is, that Shadow is turned on for your slider, but with “Hide on” it is being hidden on all devices. You should rather use the on-off option at the Shadow’s name, to turn it off. This way you will load 1 less image.

    Then besides the header preload option, which usually don’t matter, every single optimization option we offer are on the Optimize tab of sliders.

    What I don’t see being used on your slider is the “Resize” feature, which would create smaller versions from your images for smaller screens. Although some optimization plugin seems to completely overwrite our images, so I’m not sure how well that would work out like this. I would still suggest giving that a try, as our original code that way would improve what loads on mobiles. Besides this, your slider’s settings seem optimized.
