How to pause widgets loading

If you need to pause the loading of the widgets for some time, you should do the following.

Open the dashboard, press edit widget, find three dots in the right corner of the widget, press on them, and choose Edit Script.

Paste the next code to the new window:

widget.on("beforequery", function(w, args){
const delay = 4; //Delay in seconds
const currentTime = new Date().getTime();
do {
	//Nothing
} while (shouldContinue())
	
function shouldContinue() {
	return new Date().getTime() < currentTime + 1000 * delay;
}
});

Press Save button and check how it works.
