Multi-site w/ Sub-direcotories – NewsPaper 7 (Installed on and plugins tested on the primary site.)
Hey – So I went through the tutorials and have a couple of questions:
1. TD Speed Booster – Primary Site Activated Only
I added the CSS & JS as mentioned in the docs >> Purged all Cache on CloudFlare >> Ran PageInsights and the same files showed up in the “Should Fix” Suggestion Summary.
I did have an error in NewsPaper System Status stating it was deactived due to plugin conflict >>
So I commented out the lines in the Speed Booster Plugin PHP (as per tutorial) >> Cleared CloudFlare CDN >> Ran PageSpeed Insights again == The exact same CSS and JS files in the Should Fix.
Any Ideas?
2. WP Super Cache – Network Activated
Shows page Cached: http://screencast.com/t/muegNyyeNUoC
NewsPaper System Status, NO Active Caching Plugin: http://screencast.com/t/nWPRhHjHw
Cached files in supercache directory: http://screencast.com/t/9DafM4rEem
Any Ideas?
3. WP Super Cache – Developer Installation Instructions
Do we also need to follow these directions? http://screencast.com/t/3huZNEaTuI

4. CloudFlare – Do you guys still get on Google PageSpeed Tools (Even if you have minify enabled on CloudFlare): Consider Fixing = Minify Javascript and Minify CSS
Hello,
1. You should check to see if speedbooster is indeed active and running. is it moving any other render blocking js and css? ius it doing nothing? check the system status and make sure you clear all caches after you change the plugin code. Disable any untested plugin as if you use our workaround for speedbooster to make it work with other plugins, it is not guaranteed it will move the plugins css and js.
2. If wp super cache is installed and runnign properly the system status should detect it as so. Please clear the hosting cache and purge cdn files and test again.
3. You should follow those instructions, yes as they are requirements for the installation of the plugin. After you install it, use this guide to set it properly: https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/
4. we still get some of the errors but we do not use speedbooster on our demo and as you can see it loads pretty fast without it. speedbooster will improve speed but it;s the optimization that you make until that point that count the most: https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fdemo.tagdiv.com%2Fnewspaper%2F&tab=desktop
