Hi Shreddie 🙂

Unfortunately, these aren’t theme level challenges. There are some theme level items there but lots belong to plugins. The best plan of attack is the following. Head over to Plugins and install w3 Total Cache, that’s what we’re using here on the Puro site. Setup can take some time and you need to be careful to check the site and see if anything is breaking after turning on things like minification. It isn’t usually possible to get 100/100 with a WordPress site but you can certainly improve things.

The above should help up until the CDN part. For interest sake, CDN’s do help to speed things up. We’re using KeyCDN here on the Puro site. I like it because we can buy a block of credits so no monthly plan is required.

Hopefully, the above helps to get things improved. There is a lot of conversation about WordPress and caching so if you’re struggling on any one point, try a quick search, for example here is a post on W3 Total Cache and render blocking: http://customizewp.com/eliminate-render-blocking-javascript-and-css-above-the-fold-content-in-wordpress-w3-total-cache/.

This rabbit hole goes quite deep. In terms of time spent vs reward, the basic setup outlined in the WP Beginner article might be your best bet. 80/20.

Thanks Andrew. I will dig into this soon.

For sure 🙂
