Core Web Vitals error affecting my ranking and visitors

Hi there,

run a Page Speed Insights report for more details on what the issues are.
Two main issues i noticed regarding LCP.

1. Reduce initial server response time
2. Use HTTP 2.

These should be your priority and are issues you should raise with your host.

CLS issues i am not seeing any reported in the PSI report. However its possible that dynamically inserted content such as Adverts are triggering a CLS on a users device. The best advice here is to NOT have adverts above the fold - if they are generating CLS then the issue is much greater then if they are below the fold.

hi David,

Thank you for your reply.

So for LCP those two items are related with my hosting server not with the theme?

As for the CLS, I received this diagnostics information return to me:
Image elements do not have explicit width and height

Do you have any inputs on this?
Thank you!

No the Theme has no impact on them. Start with speaking with your host regarding those two issues. If there are still problems we can take another look.

One last thing about the CLS issue.
I received the Image elements do not have explicit width and height.
Google suggested to set an explicit width and height on image elements to reduce layout shifts and improve CLS.

Isnt this supposedly related to the theme?

Thanks David!

For your reference, here is the warning I get after disabling adverts: Screenshot
I suppose this is related to the theme right?

You can use the snippet provided here to add width and height attributes to the logo:

However, its not necessary IF you exclude the logo from Lazy Loading ( you don't want to lazy load images above the fold ). If your lazy loader allows you to exclude images using a CSS class you can use is-logo-image
