Check global sections
Global sections are a great way to sync content and design across site pages. However they‘re generally content-heavy, and having a lot of them on a single site may cause issues in your editor.
We recommend checking the number of global sections on the site, and using the guidelines below to reduce them:
Check for unused global sections
Use the same global section across breakpoints
Check the site's structure
If a site contains a lot of layout tools and content, its general structure may affect your editor's performance.
