Even Better Performance There have been some recent performance concerns raised, so I wanted to provide an update about how we've been doing: First, we discovered the culprit in a render-blocking script served from an external CDN (content delivery network) was causing the random slowdowns. We've removed that dependency. Next, we've upgraded the site to HTTP2 (when SSL/https is used). HTTP2 (which is used automatically when supported - no changed necessary) greatly improves page performance. We've also made a number of other incremental improvements which members will see when they are loading a calendar directly from a URL (or using the 'Responsive Iframe' publish style). A sample published calendar now typically scores in the High 90's for Desktop usage under Google PageSpeed (yay!) https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flocalendar.com%2Fpublic%2Fsample&tab=desktop Let's look at some desktop PageSpeed scores for localendar vs. some calendars from other services: localendar.com : 97/100 Keepandshare.com : 74/100 The Events Calendar (Wordpress plugin): 72/100 ---------------------------------------- Marc Higgins Support Associate, localendar.com Follow us on Twitter! http://www.twitter.com/localendar_news |

Re: Even Better Performance Do still you support rss feeds for calendars? Our church uses http://www.localendar.com/public/PUCCAdmin?style=D3 In the past I was writing a script to post process the output and put it in a legal rss format. Unfortunately, something broke on October 26th. I guess I can rewrite my script to fix the format again, but I was thinking it is probably better to fix the source. There are rss validators on the internet. https://validator.w3.org/feed/ |

Re: Even Better Performance looks like the "http:" got chopped off of the link names. //localendar.com vs http://localendar.com |

Re: Even Better Performance the // is called a "protocol relative" url and is valid syntax (it will basically automatically use either http or https, depending on how you accessed the site initially) I do see there is an issue with the feed incorrectly returning an HTML5 doctype at the start of the xml, which has been corrected. ---------------------------------------- Marc Higgins Support Associate, localendar.com Follow us on Twitter! http://www.twitter.com/localendar_news |
