You beat me to it – I was just about to reply again that I did another round with Autoptimize and this time was getting results. Still playing around with a few of the settings as they cause a few things to shift here and there. BUT it cured the loading time. And now you’ve identified the real issue – the theme margin. I should have remembered that from a year ago when the same thing happened to the Events Calendar. Anyway, I can’t thank you enough for all the help you’ve given me! Going to send the 5-star review now! THANK YOU! Metaslider is THE BEST!

Hi again, I’ve done a few tests and tried Autoptimize. The installation guide recommended playing around with the settings if certain things were no longer behaving properly (some weren’t). I managed to get the slider to not jump, but then there was a dark brownish screen (in the slider picture space) plus a flash, all of which were really quick, but still noticeable. However, with these settings the homepage didn’t load properly. There are a ton of options though for getting everything to agree and play nicely together, which I’m going to go through and try to figure out. Oh, the first thing I did was add the CSS (above post) to the main theme CSS files. There were 4 different CSS main theme files and I tried all of them but they didn’t seem to have any effect. But I’ll going to keep working with these settings and hopefully I’ll get there. Interesting the image jumping barely happens in Safari and Firefox, but happens almost every single time with Chrome. Thank you so much for you help!
