    On average my business directory takes over 20 seconds to load. Since this is one of the most used features of our website I would like to speed this up. Is there anyway to optimize the loading speed.

    You set you pagination to a high value. I recommend only 20 per page, the template default. Loading so many entries will increase the loading time. This is not a bug or limitation with Connections. You would experience the same if you were to try and load that many WP posts on a single WP page.

    Also, you need to navigate to the WordPress Permalinks admin page and remove the index.php from your permalink structure. This will make the structure compatible with Connections and improve the SEO of your site’s URL/s.

    Hope this helps!

    Thank you for the quick response. Where is the setting for 20 pre page?

    Edit the page and remove the page_limit option from within the [connections] shortcode.

    Hope that helps!
