Problems with page load and by TAG background layout

Hi Guys,

Last month I started an escort directory using Musicity template on Joomla 1.7. http://www.intimate-ladies.com
Recently I have been facing some issues which I don't know where to get advise from. I hope this is the right place to do so.

Issue Nr1:
Most times when you want to access the website there is a 500 Internal Server Error shown and after refreshing, it opens normally. (screenshot pasted below)

Plus most importantly to mention is that when run a Page Audit (for the home page) the site loads 504 objects which that's why it delays the page to load for so long and when the audit has finished I get these errors (see images below)

Issue Nr2:
On the Home Page the Slider loads extremely slow. I have only uploaded only 3 images on it so far.
The red dot in the middle stays there until everything on the page has been loaded and then it shows up.
Sometimes this may take up to 1 minute to show. (image below)

Issue Nr3:
I have made some changes to the CSS Override (advanced options in the template settings) and something
has gone wrong with the background when someone views categories by TAG.

If you see the white background it breaks just after the breadcrumb. (see the second image below to see the difference)

The background shows and the posts look neat and tidy :)

I hope you now understand what I wanted to show with the above explication.

Look forward for a solution to these issues.

Best wishes,

If this happened recently can you not backtrack the changes you have made to your site. If you haven't made any changes then i advice deleting any cache files inside module folders. Such as "\modules\mod_image_show_gk4\cache\". Make sure to backup your files in case that is not the problem.
Also delete only image files and not the folder itself nor index.html file inside.

Also check your apache logs , error logs to see any warnings there.

See you around...

Hi Norman,

I tested and made some changes around during the weekend and I found what the problem was for the homepage. In the modules (Image Show GK4) I had given the option to load 100 K2 articles which only 5 were showing so the rest were loading in the background. So instead of only loading only 20 articles instead was loading over 500 .

Now my other question is: If you do an Audit run (on Google Chrome) it will give some suggestions such as:
Combine External CSS:
There are multiple resources served from same domain. Consider combining them into as few files as possible.
18 CSS resources served from intimate-ladies.com.

Combine External JavaScript:
There are multiple resources served from same domain. Consider combining them into as few files as possible.
9 JavaScript resources served from intimate-ladies.com.

Enable Gzip Compression:
Compressing the following resources with gzip could reduce their transfer size by about two thirds (~24.14KB):
General-Enquiries.html could save ~24.14KB


Optimize the order of styles and scripts
The following external CSS files were included after an external JavaScript file in the document head. To ensure CSS files are downloaded in parallel, always include external CSS before external JavaScript.
stylesheet.css
stylesheet.css
2 inline script blocks were found in the head between an external CSS file and another resource. To allow parallel downloading, move the inline script before the external CSS file, or after the next resource.

etc.. etc..

Please try to do an Audit Run yourself from your browser and see what you get.


The last thing was the question I mentioned on the previous post:

Hi Eridex,

Regarding combining css files and js files and using gzip.

As your website is made of multiple modules and components and each of them using their own css and javascript files it is impossible for us to combine them to make single css and single js file.

However there are many plugins available in joomla extensions website which can do above for you, but please read the authors website how to use such tools as it deals with final html codes when used aggressively it can break certain html elements. So try one at a time taking notes on your selected options in the plugin and check everything works.
Jfinalizer is such a plugin.

As for tag/category view first thing i have noticed is in tag view your breadcrumbs is getting too long and pushing lines further down. So i ll need to spend some more time on it to see what is actually happening as also its not rendering inside component page.

See you around...

Hi again NormanUK,

Thank for your tip. I will give a try the plugin you suggested.
I wanted to tell you that the breadcrumb is broken even when I remove the CSS Override from the Advanced Template Settings so it might be a bug which "GK" hasn´t noticed.

For the background question in Tag Category display it works completely fine when I remove the CSS Override code from the Advanced Template Settings so if you can have a look at the code I have imputed there will be great. Maybe I need to add a background css code to fix that?

Thanks for assisting me in this matter.

Hi guys, did anyone manage to have a look at the last issue I had with the template?
