W3 Total Cache Plugin compatibility
Hi,
Having problem with speed. its 23 on mobile and 21 on desktop.
I tried using W3 Total Plugin. used minify option, Checked the speed back , there was little bit increase, but the mobile version was showing 66/100 user experience, before plugin it was 99/100
More I use the plugin, its breaking up the site and speed decreased.
Please advice , which plugin to use. which code, configuration etc to speed up the site?
Regards

unfortunately there is no gold mean for plugin's settings because each server is different and different settings may work better. Of course, you can download the settings that we use for our demo on http://forum.muffingroup.com/betheme/discussion/1453/w3-total-cache but they may do not work because of different settings on your actual server. If you look at http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/#!/b3tyvG/http://themes.muffingroup.com/betheme/ you will see that our theme works really fast and the speed has been improved a lot. So to be honest, we have no idea what exactly may slow down your site.
Thanks!
loading slowly. After performing a Pingdom Speed Test, I found that the number
of requests are '86' and the web page size is '6.0MB'.
all of the elements that make up the site, namely scripts and images. Ideally on
a shared server, anything above 120 requests and a web page over 1.5 MB will
have a massive impact on your download speed.
Anyway, we did checked your site and looks like you really have a problem with your server. You should also notice that all these JS scripts does not come with our theme only. There is only maybe 2 or 3 that comes with theme. The whole rest comes from plugins like Visual Composer, Revolution Slider, etc.
P.S. Like we wrote above, setting W3 Total Cache plugin, requires skills. As we see, you just imported the settings and that's why your site does not look good. We suggest you to contact with your website developer and hope that he would be able to help you because your issues are not related with BeTheme at all. We did checked your site once again now and everything seems to be fine what you can see on http://pasteboard.co/1SW5Tmj.png
To be honest we do not understand your frustration. Sounds like you don't know what you bought exactly. You bought the theme and it's features, not customization service. If you will read Item Support Policy, you will understand what is included.
In accordance to your questions about the site speed, our theme is very fast (faster than 95% wp themes) so you are definitely wrong with your statements. We already proofed it above but looks like you missed that part of our message. Our theme, has been compressed as much as possible. For many months we've been improving BeTheme speed only so saying like: "Hosting is saying there is no fault at there end, its theme, plugins etc.." sounds a little bit funny and weird. So if anyone really said like that, should change the industry because for sure shouldn't do what is he doing now. Wrong people in wrong place.
If anyone was checking your site, for sure supposed to tell you that files related with theme can not be compressed more. We already did as much as it was possible. You should know also, that the plugins like Revolution Slider, VC and other may bring many not compressed files but because these are only plugins, we do not have any impact on them and there is nothing what we can do to compress them.
On the evidence of what we wrote above, we are pasting link to pingdom tool once again so you can check how fast our theme is http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/#!/b3tyvG/http://themes.muffingroup.com/betheme/ (notice that it is so fast although there is 200-300 people online for all the time around the world).
Hope that our explanation would be clear enough and you will understand all these points.
Thanks for understanding!
