Facebook for Woocommerce seems to be slowing site down dramatically

    Greetings,

    I would like to inquire about this plugin’s impact on website speed and see if there is anything I can do to improve it. After browsing the google-generated Lighthouse Treemap for my website, I see that two Facebook scripts flood most of the loading process.

    Namely,
    ? https://connect.facebook.net/signals/config/... takes up ~25-45% of the load. This is the process related to the facebook pixel, unless I’m mistaken.
    ? https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/fbevents.js takes up an additional 10-20%. I am unsure of the exact function of this js file.

    Overall, Facebook scripts slow down my website by a lot. Is there anything I can do to alleviate that?
    I don’t necessarily need a pixel, honestly. It would be good to have, but not mandatory if it drags down the whole website. However, I cannot find a way to remove the pixel integration without deactivating the whole plugin, and automatically syncing Woocommerce products to my FB store is vital.

    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

  • Hi @spitelis you can disabled pixel by adding this snippet to your site:

    add_filter( 'facebook_for_woocommerce_integration_pixel_enabled', '__return_false' );

    you can add this to your functions.php file or any file where you have custom code.

    We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved – if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.
