    Hi @sinasr

    Our slider works that way by default that we need to wait until your website is completely built up, as we are positioning everything based on the loaded CSS and JavaScript codes. So if your site load slowly, so the slider will.

    Anyways I checked the linked page and the problem will be related to both the images and the a 404 error.
    So the images:
    The more and bigger images you have, the longer it takes the browser to download and render them. Here you can see some practices that helps you in speeding up the loading of both the slider and the page:

    please note that some features like the Lazy Loading will only available in the Pro verison. But you could try our optimizing options.

    The 404 error:
    This image:

    returns a 404 error and that will delay the loading, as the browser will try to load the resource until it returns the 404 error. So you should make sure the image you use on your site exists indeed.
    If you check the loading of your site as you see here:
    https://smartslider.helpscoutdocs.com/article/1925-how-to-speed-up-your-site#why-slow
    you will be able to see which parts delay the loading of the page exactly and you will be able to see this 404 error, too!

    Best regards,
    Laszlo.
