Getting really poor results in Google

BBenito · Jun 27, 2022

Hi all,

I have Flarum 1.3.0 and I am getting a really poor score in Google Page Speed, especially for mobile phones, score of 39.
First Contentful Paint is really bad, apparently a lot of JS code can be deferred, any plugins for this please?

Thanks

There's lot to be said about that performance analyzer tool, a SPA will always underperform against classic applications. A SPA performs better when browsing around, so after the first page view inside the navigation of the website. Then there's the question of the type of scan you did, feel free to read one of the discussions about it here: https://discuss.flarum.org/d/30798

luceos I think what is happening as well is that a lot of hosts are now using Lite speed cache. It seems that this app has no working lite speed modules, I checked one out, but it seems not to work with the 1.3.0

Benito This extension adds Lite Speed Cache (https://discuss.flarum.org/d/29475-litespeed-cache-for-flarum/) and works really well, is this the one you say doesn't work?

Darkle Thanks, I was going to use it but if you look lower down the extension thread, some say it does not work with 1.3.0.
