I have already reviewed the information provided in this topic: https://wpforo.com/community/faq/forum-is-slow/ , but unfortunately, there has been no improvement.

  1. There are not many forums/subforums.
  2. There is no loopback.
  3. Okay (I have changed it to InnoDB).
  4. Okay (No corruption or issues).
  5. Cache is active.

You can view the test results here: https://pagespeed.web.dev/analysis/https-bet-clever-com-forum/uheblbzdd6?hl=fr&form_factor=mobile

1. First Contentful Paint 3.6 sec.
2. Speed Index 5.5 sec.
3. Largest Contentful Paint 4.8
4. Total Blocking Time 1 350 ms

Under ACP: 

1. Obsolete SQL server (Need to upgrade to the latest version of MariaDB) but I do not think it is the main issue.

I have refrained from using any plugins to optimize WP, as I am aware that Wpforo utilizes a native cache plugin. However, I am unsure if using another cache plugin would be effective for WPFORO?

I am currently exploring ways to enhance the loading speed of the mobile page as members have been expressing concerns. 🙁

If anyone has experience with plugins or has useful tips, please share them, as the mobile navigation experience is subpar.

Additionally, I have noticed that navigation on certain pages is not very quick on PC as well.

Thank you for your assistance.

Hi,

I get insonsisstent results from pagespeed.web.dev, just got 66 for your site (mobile).

Check this:

to better understand IF there is an issue.

About optimizing and caching. Optimizers are from the last era and not needed with modern https.

Caching: NO PAGE caching for wpForo. BUT you can use OBJECT caching.

It seems wpForo recently breaks all links posted, so i added it as code.

Also checking your forums, a have a tip to offer.

Install and activate ARI SOFT Lightbox and make your posted images to popup.

Glad to see that wpForo here also uses ARISOFT plugin.

I have installed LiteSpeed because my server is running it.
Unfortunately, there hasn't been any improvement in page loading.

I installed Ari soft too.

Thanks for your help.

Litespeed caching in general makes things slower for some reason. Strange but true.

You could use REDIS is available on your server.
