As you can see on my home page (https://warzoneloadout.games/), WPDatatables are the technology behing the main feature of the website. I display 6 big tables within tabs with custom CSS, great layout and SQL query from website DB. I love the plugin capabilities! I'm having between 3 and 4 millions views per months and the plugins is allowing me to have this kind of success!
Questions:
I'm working a lot to improve performance and i would like to understand what i could do to to improve loading speed? Is there a way to force the caching of the table instead of running the query everytime the page loads?
Also wanted to minify all Javascript files on the website but when i do that the tables do not load anymore, do you know how i can find the JS files for them to be excluded from loading?
Thank you for reaching out to us, and thank you for using wpDataTables in such a beautiful way. Before going into the details of your ticket, I have gotta ask - could we add your site to our Showcase page? It looks cool, and I'd like to have our developers take a look at it.
As for the page itself - when I open it, it loads all data within 4 seconds, so it's definitely not a long wait, nor does it provide users with a bad experience (from my point of view).
Anyway, if you want to lower the loading time, and these tables won't load over 2.000 rows on the front-end, and the tables won't be editable, you can disable the "Server-side processing" feature (if I'm not mistaken, these are all MySQL query-based tables), and in that case, only one admin-ajax will run, reducing the load time.
The plugin itself is already minified as much as possible, and you even have an option to disable minification in settings/Custom JS and CSS section.
