Yes – Wells Fargo uses Authorize.net as their payment processor. Install the Authorize.net plugin and get the API Login ID and transaction key from your Wells Fargo Merchant Services account manager (they set up your Authorize.net account for you).

Hi Robbie,

I have been also having a big problem with the page load speed on one of my woocommerce sites and found that caching plugins (W3 Total Cache and WP Cache) did not play nice with my shop.

I have been using pingdom to track my page load speed (as well as user testing) and although I haven’t fixed all of my problems yet, the following changes/additions to my child theme functions.php did speed it up considerably.

1. I deregistered the heartbeat using this code:

add_action( 'init', 'stop_heartbeat', 1 );

function stop_heartbeat() {
        wp_deregister_script('heartbeat');
}

from this site:

http://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/website/wordpress/heartbeat-heavy-admin-ajax-php-usage

I did find that it took a little bit of time for that change to show up on pingdom.

2. Added the code from this site to optimize the WooCommerce scripts: http://wordimpress.com/how-to-load-woocommerce-scripts-and-styles-only-in-shop/

3. And finally, I spent the bulk of my time adding code that will selectively load my css and js files. I followed the instructions on this page:

http://www.organizedthemes.com/loading-scripts-conditionally/

and implemented it for all css and js files that were showing up on pingdom.

I hope this helps – this is a super frustrating problem to have.

@adicumpanasu – thanks for your mini website. I was able to use it to see if a topic had been introduced in a plugin support forum that was 250 pages long. Thank you!

Figured it out and thought I would share for anyone having this problem. The image in the post/page needs to be set as the Featured Image, not put into the body of the post/page (instructions most likely in the documentation).

Hi Jordy,

I am also having the problem as the original poster. I don’t have any caching plugins running. I also could not find the wp-retina-2x.php file. I just downloaded another copy of the plugin just in case something happened to my live files but don’t see it in there. This is a somewhat old thread so there may be a new work around by now. Any tips you can give would be great.

Thanks,
Ellen
