With all due respect, I want to say to WIX that it is a huge shame that being the platform that can compete with Wordpress, it has a failure as big as the time it takes to load everything, the editor and the website itself. Up to 1 minute waiting for it to load and to top it off, the widgets did not load well, thus forcing the page to reload more than twice. In 2021 this failure is unforgivable, and does not motivate to upgrade.
To edit a simple thign that normally i spend few seconds with WIX i spend alf hour.....unvelibeable.
Totally agree
I have the same issue . Everything is slow
@Vytenis Butkevičius -- (apologies if this is not your area, but I don’t know who to tag in this forum anymore for technical issues like this). Loading times have become such an issue that I have lost many members in my forum. We are now considering moving completely away from the Wix platform to host our site.
I know that I am not alone in reacting this way. I have had both my Wix sites for 2 years now, the problem of load times has been brought up here before over the years many times, and with only a comment from a Wix team member that Wix considers load speed "important" -- but in all this time Wix has done nothing about it.
Is there anything in the works on this, or is it time to abandon Wix finally?

Hi, @R Griggs Wood, @Learn Code, @Admin User, @lsboudoirlondon
It's saddening for us to hear about your negative experience with the loading times. I want to assure you, that Wix takes performance very seriously and it's been the most important thing for us in the last 3 years. We have invested a lot and basically rewritten Wix multiple times in last years. However it very well could be that performance for some sites, some apps, even some times of the day is still unsatisfactory. It's a complicated thing to solve once and for all, there are many variables that impact it.
It would be very helpful for us if you could describe in detail (or even with videos) what exactly happens when it's loading slow.
- What do you consider slow?
- Which forum page are you loading?
- Does it happen when you navigate inside forum or when you come to forum for first time (for example you were on another website and then changed address in browser to your site)?
- Does it always happens, if not at what circumstances?
