Hello,
I was trying to optimize page speed, and followed all of the steps at: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/
Following these steps:
Remove render blocking css/js – using the TagDiv Speed Boosterplugin (Advanced Users)
Question:
1. Here is my result after I add the code at the end of the functions.php file:
registered scripts

woocommerce-activation | http://livelovefruit.com/wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/assets/css/activation.css
Then, when I go to look for corresponding ID’s, I only find the social-icons-widget-admin as something slowing down my site, but can’t find any of the others mentioned shown here (click link): http://livelovefruit.com/?attachment_id=7267
2. You say not to minify with W3 total cache, but on my page speed insights it says that I should minify html, minify css, and minify JavaScript. What should I do in this situation?
Thanks,
Carly
You can minify html safely. For CSS and JS, you could turn on manual minify mode in W3TC and input each individual script to minify, leaving out the ones that cause errors (i.e. theme ones). Pagespeed also gives you the full URL to each one that it identifies. This is a bit of a pain, but at least you clear away the Pagespeed messages. 🙂
Note that Pagespeed will also complain about external ones, and I believe there’s nothing you can do about that.
