I have observed that my forum is too slow. I have checked this with a slow internet also, With a slow internet, other forumotion forum or other site is loading quickly but my forum doesn't load quickly. Sometimes it doesn't load the page fully. I also observed it with fast internet. My forum is slow from other.

Is there any way to know that which option causing this problem in my froum? I need it badly. Becuause, most of the user of our country is using slow internet connection.

From What I Know Why Is Your Forum Is Laggy (Though When I Search It In My Browser Its Just Normal) I Think Its Because Of The Widgets? There Are So Many With Them And I Cant Understand Because Theres So Many Widgets. scratch

Hi,

Do you have a good amount of JavaScript in the forum? Also, big images will take sometime to load, so that might be another reason. I also have to wait a bit until your forum loads.

What can I say, I have installed 20 javascripts in my forum. All of them are badly needed. In homepage, there is no big image. What can I do? Any help?

There is your problem, adding a good amount of JavaScript in your forum will only cause the forum to load slow. Confused

Are you sure? If it is, then I will delete some codes. I already deleted 3 of them.

Don't delete anything yet. Just click this option: Enable Javascript code management : "No" (ACP >> Modules >> JavaScript Code Management)

That way we can see if the JavaScript is the issue, which I'm 99% sure that it is.

Yes! I have done this and observe that forum is fast now. So, javascript causing the problem. What can I do now?

Well, all I can say is use the ones that are more needed. Those that aren't remove them, there isn't any other way, that's the problem with JavaScript.
