Accelerating Content Tree Performance

Let talk about few tiny tips to accelerate the performance of content tree.

Sometimes we experience that the content tree is taking longer than expected to open. It may be because of various reasons but there are few tips which can help us to speed up the content tree opening time.

Avoid opening the entire content tree every time

We usually don’t require the entire Content tree every time to work on. Like Templates, Layouts, System etc. Hence opening the entire content tree everytime is of on use. We have an option available which can help us opening the Content part of the tree only and hide rest of the tree sections.

Go to Login To Sitecore → Open Desktop Mode/Content Tree → Open View Menu → Un-check the Entire Tree option

Avoid opening the standard fields every time

Apart form Workflows we rarely refer the Standard fields Section everytime. Hence de-selecting the Standard field will hide all the Standard Fields which will make the content item to get loaded tremendously faster.

Go to Login To Sitecore → Open Desktop Mode/Content Tree → Open View Menu → Un-check the Standard Field option

Similarly we can also opt the choose to not show the hidden items in Content Tree.

Hope it helps !!!
