    Wordpress Reaction theme share trading site

    Posted 13 years 6 months ago
    • Hi

      Here's the link. It's a free resource site for anyone interested in trading the markets. I welcome any comments you may have.

      It uses Reaction theme for most of the site and Dominion for the header area and Slider.

    • All our video is hosted on Viddler.com. It allows you to upload in a host of formats and you can determine the format. It's handy for mobile visitors as they can use MP4 and not flash.

    • Hi

      We do have a problem with the speed of download on the site. The developers used the Reaction theme as the main design and took the slider header are from another theme. This may have something to do with the speed.

      If anyone has some ideas as to how we can improve things I would be grateful.

      Regards

    • Just to optimize the design a little. I see you got a small problem with the shadow of the header. But this fix would do the deal.

      Change following CSS codes:
      .main_top_header {
width: 935px;
height: 120px;
background: url("images/custom_menus/header-main.png") repeat-x scroll 50% 100% transparent;
margin: 0 -20px;
padding: 0 20px;
}

      To this
      .main_top_header {
width: 965px;
height: 120px;
background: url("images/custom_menus/header-main.png") repeat-x scroll 50% 100% transparent;
margin: 0 -35px;
padding: 0 20px;
}

      And this CSS code also:
      .top_header_shadow {
background: url("images/custom_menus/header-overlay.png") no-repeat scroll 50% 100% transparent;
width: inherit;
height: 69px;
}

      To this:
      .top_header_shadow {
background: url("images/custom_menus/header-overlay.png") no-repeat scroll 50% 100% transparent;
width: 900px;
height: 69px;
margin-left: 30px;
}

      Looks already better, doesn't it?
      And you don't have so good speed on it. About 8 sec's from my computer in NYC..
      With pingdom you got little above 7 secs.. Check test here: tools.pingdom.com/fpt/#!/hhHO2Cocn/http://tradingtutors.com/

      You should keep the loading time under 5 secs.. Wordpress have a very good plugin i recommend you to use. Called W3 Total Cache.. Try it!
      Also try to consider optimize the images a bit..
      Send me a PM or just reply here if you are interested how..

    • Hi

      OK made all the changes and tested the speed and it looks like it's down to 3.7 seconds. Whoo Hoo!

      I couldn't get the pingdom.com to work, kept timing out. Thanks for your help.

      Cheers
