You're welcome! And yes it's worth it to follow the experts :)

You're most welcome!

It's a pleasure Tony, hope this helps :)

Hi Van, I am thinking of changing my theme - as it loads slowly. Does it cause many problems changing over to something like "Catch Adaptive" I note the one I am using "Cleanr" has not been supported for some time.
What are your thoughts?
Tony

Hi Tony, your site loads fine when I visit it but when I tried analyzing it the results did say that it took 14+ seconds to load. So I think it's a safe choice that you change the theme, particularly because as you said the theme has not been supported for 2 years (Geez). Catch Adaptive looks like a great choice. Do update me when you decide to switch the theme. And it's so awesome that you published an e-book!

Also, are you using Cloudflare already? It's a great free service to speed up your site.

Talk soon,

Van.

Thanks once again for going over my site - you are really great.
I have not tried Cloudflare - I will check it out later. First I will do a run with the Theme change.
All the very best .......and thanks a lot for the "Comments"
Tony

You're most welcome Tony, if I can help with anything else let me know.. All the best for your new look :)

Hi Van, I have just finished moving over to the new theme. It has some really good features .....even though it is still a bit slow to load.
I will look at Cloudflare now.
I would be interested in whether you think the new look is better or about the same. (I can always put it back if necessary).

Hey Tony,

You might want to check your plugins. It looks like the slow loading is due to a plugin conflict. Or you may just need to update your wordpress version. (you can delete unwanted themes and plugins, then update whatever there is to update)

I think it's looking good. Just wondering if it's possible for your menu bar to move to the side or disappear when you go down the page? It looks a bit distracting sometimes.. If not, you may want to reduce the number of categories to streamline the menu bar.

Also are you using a background image? the section at the bottom has white text so it's a bit hard to read. You may want to remove the background image so the white text stands out.

Do buzz me if there's anything else you need help with, all the best!

You're welcome. Hope it helps you too. It clears out so many things for me

For me as well.
There are some very useful tips in it.
It also made me think about things I wouldn't normally think about.

That is awesome! Exactly, it is best to hear and learn from the seasoned people :)
