Slow page load - please help

[Finknz]

Hi all, just one page off my site takes a long time to load. I turned off ligthbox on the images, didnt make a difference.

The images seem small enough. I am using the app "Group" so that each block can be easily copied. Not sure if that would effect things. Any ideas what might be making this page take longer than usual. Thanks.

I'm not having a problem pulling up that page you linked. Nice collection, by the way!!

Bob Dylan-Down in the Groove should be the last product to load?

Thanks The page loads ok for me too, I just noticed it took alot longer to load than any other page. For example 7-10 seconds, which I guess isnt much to some, just seem more than normal. Bob Dylan would be the last product yes.

Chrome took about 2 seconds for me. Firefox took 3 seconds, and Safari took about 4.5 seconds. Could just be a temporary connection issue? You could try testing out if it's the app by making a copy of the page and removing the element. To copy: Click on Pages at the top, the page you wish to copy on the left, and then hit Copy. 

Alternatively you can also quickly copy elements from one page to the other. All you need to do is hover over the element (ie: text element or product element) then click on the arrow in the top left corner. You will see the option to Move or Copy to a specified page. 

Hope this helps you out! Let me know if you have more questions.

Thanks for your help Bernadette, it does seem to be faster. I had been having this issue for the past day so it was odd it only effected that one page. I'll turn back on lightbox and see if that has any effect.

Spoke too soon, it's slow again. I will see what speed others in New Zealand experience with it.

@Finknz:  Try using the standard weebly theme without any customization.  If you have used some one else to build it ask them what plugins they have used and shut them down.

Just to follow up on this I believe it was the app Group. Although it was great to be able to put everything in a box it must have slowed down things to a crawl for me. When I made a new page and just had the same elements without using "Group" loading speeds came back to normal.

If the Group app includes any resources from another site that would make sense; the browser would need to request external resources for the app which can add more time.
