In this article, we'll explain how to turn off unused scripts in WoodMart to make the page clean, fast and sharp.

1. Enter the Theme Performance Settings screen

Log in to the backend and enter:
WoodMart > Theme Settings

Here you will see multiple options for features that can be turned off, such as:

  • AJAX Search Function
  • Product Quick View
  • Product Comparison Features
  • Slide Thumbnail
  • Sticky Header
  • Instagram Feed
  • Customized Font Loader
  • Built-in Google Fonts

If you don't use these features, it's recommended to just turn them off.

2. Close product-related scripts

If your site doesn't offer "Quick Look"Compare", "Wish List", etc., and switch the corresponding option to "OFF" directly.

This step removes the corresponding JS and CSS files, reducing the burden on the front-end.

4. Disable AJAX searching (optional)

AJAX search is cool but loads extra scripts. If you don't have many products, it's perfectly fine to turn it off and use the standard search which is perfectly adequate.

Turning off AJAX search on the Performance page will not load the live search script.
