Hi John



Unfortunately your answer is in the question. Yes, your stores are slow for me here in the UK too. For starters, take advantage of the optimisations in config.local.php to join your CSS and compress Javascript. Your root problem, however, is most likely down to GoDaddy servers being incorrectly configured and generally poor all round.

Hi,

Can you describe how to combine css in config.php?

It's not in config.php, it's in config.local.php - near the bottom, you'll see “join_css” with a value of “false”, change this to “true”.

I too have godaddy but a shared hosting. Who would you recommend for proper hosting but not costing an arm and a leg each month? I would hope for something better around $10-12 per month. I don't need a VPS server (no idea what that is but $50 per month pricing is way to high). Thanks.

My 2 cents. 'Fleur de Lis not 'Fluer de Lis' on your home page.

I have a fantastic host but it's in Australia.

Thank you for the tip!

I had missed this on my installation, and it made it even a bit quicker!

Thanks!
