Ajax loading streamlines page navigation in version 7.0 for a faster, smoother user experience. This asynchronous loading method keeps static elements like headers and footers cached while only loading new content, significantly improving load times for content-heavy pages.

Ajax-Compatible Templates:

• Brine
• Farro
• Skye (blog landing page only)
• Tremont
• York

Managing Ajax Settings:

• Enabled by default for visitors
• Can be disabled via Site Styles panel
• Exceptions: Cannot be disabled in Skye family or Farro blog landing page
• Automatically disabled for logged-in contributors

To Enable/Disable Ajax:

1. Open Site Styles panel
2. Locate "Enable Ajax Loading"
3. Toggle the checkbox as needed

Important Considerations:

• May conflict with custom code and anchor links
• Can affect URL redirects
• Might impact site analytics tracking

Loading Bar Features:

• Available in Brine and Farro templates
• Customizable width and color
• Can be hidden through Site Styles panel

To Modify Loading Bar:

1. Access Site Styles panel
2. Navigate to "Site: Loading"
3. Adjust visibility, width, and color settings

Best Practice: Keep Ajax enabled when supported by your template for optimal site performance, unless specific customizations require disabling it.
