#WixTurbo

That’s what’s up!!! :slight_smile:

@brett-haralson My goal is below 2 seconds for the site to be interactive!

I wanna see that!!!

Let me know if you see any areas it can be improved! Website can be found here - Strong Tower Church

Can their be suggestions on improving speed.

Hey there! If you notice there is a link on the site: “Learn how to shift into turbo” :stuck_out_tongue: follow that link!

I did but only said try it migrate from old apps like the blog, lists, and old store. The site has all the updated new apps already.

I know everyone is super excited that Wix has decided to address the elephant in the room and do something about the speed issues that have been hanging over their heads since their start… I must admit that any improvement is more than welcome on my part! HOWEVER…

What I do have a huge problem with is the implementation (roll out) of these new improvements. I have been reading support ticket after support ticket of people’s databases being broken, animations changing and sites having other issues in general. One of the biggest problems that I have seen webmasters complain about is how different the sites start to behave between IE, Edge and Chrome. I, myself, have a ticket open on issues with my sites after the roll out of Turbo. Which brings me to my main point:

I can’t believe that Wix has pushed a framework update like this to the live environment affecting millions of live websites without any advance notice to their development community and a chance to test their sites first! This goes against every professional development standard and is borderline malfeasance! This just isn’t done! Something this major should have been introduced in a new (beta) environment and developers should have been given an opportunity to fully test their sites and code against the new environment before manually moving their sites over! This isn’t fun and games for many of us - we make a living making websites and we answer to our customers - unhappy customers!

If Wix doesn’t see this as a problem or a learning moment, than this platform has no future for professional development community.

Please don’t get me wrong - Wix is doing so many things right and I love them (which is, obviously, why I’m using it), but I call them as I see them and what has happened with Turbo roll out has no place in a normal software development process.

Just my 2 cents, whatever they are worth… (probably 2 cents).

I don’t mean to burst people bubble but I did a test on Google website tester and mine came in saying 4 seconds and it called it slow. On the wix website tester I got 2.3

Since this lurched I can not add wix forum to 2 of my sites it just won’t publish or save. I don’t know if this is something to do with the new turbo speed or just another problem. Has anyone else had this with adding the forum .

Hi there!

We recently had a round table discussion that offered an in-depth explanation on Wix Turbo. I’ve added the video below! I encourage to watch the video as it discusses many important aspects of Wix Turbo including the difference in our tester, compared to others (if you jump to the 11:30 mark).

Additionally, I’ve included a support article below that may come in handy!

Hey - this should not have any effect on your current site regarding wix forum. Not sure what’s happening there, but you may want to touch support.
