• Hey there,

    I lately did a test on my websites core web vitals because my klick rates semed to have reduced by almost 50 percent since the comparison period in 2021. The test listed severe issues with practically all of my posts.

    According to the results on Page Speed Insights, one of the major causes for this is the website sidebar, more specifically, the sidebar content created with PE Recent Posts. It seems like the widget’s CSS properties are not supported and therefore cause 6 out of 13 CLS in the mobile version as well as 3 out of 8 issues in the desktop version.

    I’m not sure how to fix this, so would be thankful for support.

    regards,

    Miriam

    @pixelemu I’ve deleted your offer to login to your user’s site. I’m am 100% sure you mean well but please never ask for credentials on these forums.

    Now for the why: The internet is a wonderful place full of very nice people and a few very bad ones. I’m sure everyone here is very nice however, by giving some ones keys to your house you are trusting they wont steal anything. Likewise the person who takes the keys is now responsible for the house FOREVER.

    If something was to go wrong, then you the author may well legally become liable for damages, which they would not normally have been as their software is provided without warranty.

    Please be aware that repeatedly asking for credentials will result in us escalating this to the plugins team.

    It’s never necessary to do that. Here’s why.

    There are many ways to get information you need and accessing the user’s site is not one of them. That’s going too far.

    You get the idea.

    Volunteer support is not easy. But these forums need to a safe place for all users, experienced or new. Accessing their system that way is a short cut that will get you into real trouble in these forums.
