Product Attribute Combinations Making Product Page Sloooooooooow!

Hi everyone

 

Please help!

 

I am evaluating PS for my company's eCommerce requirements and I'm really impressed with it except for one thing which could be a deal breaker.

 

Each of our products have multiple attribute combinations. Over 50,000 in fact!

 

This is making each of our product pages really slow to load!!!

 

This is because PS renders a line of Javascript in the source code for each combination! That means the HTML alone (not including images or external JS and CSS files) is over 1mb, which is too big. It will cause issues particularly for mobile users who don't have fast connections.

 

Are there any solutions anyone could recommend? Please don't suggest caching or compressing HTML as this won't help this particular problem. 

 

Please help as I really want to use PS!

 

Thanks,

 

Chris

Hi Vekia,

 

Thanks for your quick reply...I've already taken a look at that add-on however if you look in the source code of the demos you'll notice that there is still a lot of inline JS so the problem won't go away.

 

Is that the only option in your opinion?
