I used layerslider extensively on our new web site. But the test results from Google Page Score showed that any page with layerslider much slower than regular page. Is there a way I could optimize layerslider for Google Page Score besides from making images smaller in size? We use SVG graphics in our media for layerslider animation and also we are using CDN to host all our media library.
Thank you for getting in touch with us. My name is Attila and I'm happy to assist you today. I appreciate your patience while we've been working towards your ticket.
LayerSlider offers multiple options (Advanced tab) that you can utilize to increase performance. The conditional script loading option will only load the scripts when they are needed. The include scripts in the footer option helps with eliminating the render-blocking scripts. The slider markup caching option spares server resources and lowers database connections. Please also note that the caching is not present for logged in admins, so you might not see the difference on the back-end. There is also the Optimize for mobile option in the Slider Settings -> Mobile tab (hidden by default).
