Review widget performance metrics

The Performance details feature provides comprehensive tracking of each widget on a page, enabling better assessment of the user experience. You can view load times, customization status, and display visibility for each widget. For guidance on accessing the widget performance metrics, see View widget performance metrics.

Enable asynchronous loading for widgets

By default, widgets try to load and display data simultaneously. This can cause longer load times in content-heavy portals. To improve loading speed and reduce employee wait times, select the Asynchronous option to enable widgets to display data as it becomes available, instead of waiting for all the data to load.

For step-by-step instructions to enable asynchronous loading, see Improve portal load time with asynchronous loading and Configure Mega menu async load system properties.

Optimize connected content

To improve page load times, limit the number of connected content items in topics. Connect only the required content to topics and remove any unnecessary content like outdated or unpublished versions.

For guidance on managing connected content, see Create and associate topics and Taxonomy and connected content.
