Try disabling your Better WordPress minify plugin, that sometimes happens with minification.
Hi Jan,
Thanks for getting back. I have disbaled and deleted all Minify Plugins but still have the problem.
Works fine for me, a bit slow in loading but it loads fine. You may need to clear your cache to get the latest version.
Hi Carl,
It still seems to be loading unstyled data first then load content as usual.
Cheers,
True. It is taking a bit to render but that is more along the lines of performance than an error of styling. You should look into optimizing your setup (website/hosting) for better performance. From a quick performance run at Pingdom:

You will see a lot of negatives are apparent from that report: Loading time, response time, # of requests, file size all should be improved. Hope this guides you into the right direction.
In the short term, you could look into preloading your pages before rendering until you can improve your website performance. Depending upon your comfort level, you can look into a plugin or write up some code for it.
Hi Carl,
Yer I’ve been working all week on trying to speed it up. Google PageSpeed is looking good, but as you point out the actual load time is a little off.
I’ll look into the Preloader option.
Just over 80% of your time is based upon “waiting” from the server. I’d strongly suggest to speak with your hosting provide to identify resolutions relating to the server. Just from a quick glance, you have a lot of stylesheets and scripts loading. The results of your admin-ajax.php stood out as well. Hopefully, this gives you some guidance on touch-points to target on.
GL buddy.
Cheers Carl,
Very much appreciated.

Just for anybody who reads this in the future and has the Listify theme and tries to increase the speed of their site: “Above the Fold Optimization” Plugin wrecks the site, it slowed it down dramatically and caused the unstyled content popping up before the page loads after 30 seconds. I’m still getting a slow Pingdom result, but Google Page Speed is still high at 92/100
I thought I had deleted the plugin previously but hadn’t reset the Cache, so lesson learnt from that!
