Hi,
Just bought the theme today and installed in Server.
When I checked system status it shows Speed Booster is disabled because of Akismet. I am using Version 3.1.3 of Akismet. Do we have any compatibility issue with Akismet. This is a very common plugin to protect spam.
Uninstalled, reinstalled Akismet. I don’t have many plugin installed as I am just setting up the server. I am using the latest version of your theme.
Thanks

Hi,
The speed booster plugin will be disabled with almost all other plugins as default, it’s just that Akismet is the top of your plugins list due to it starting with “A”
You need to edit the Speed Booster.php and remove this section of code:
———————
// disable the plugins if there are incompatible plugins
$active_plugins = get_option(‘active_plugins’);
//print_r($active_plugins);
//die;
foreach ($active_plugins as $active_plugin) {
if (!in_array($active_plugin, $this->allowed_plugins)) {
define(‘TD_SPEED_BOOSTER_INCOMPATIBLE’ , $active_plugin);
return;
}
}
————————-
That will prevent it from being disabled by default.
Hi,
Thanks @GadgetViper!
@sirajcmr The speed booster was tested only with these plugins – http://screencast.com/t/hcjLnOqh4i2 and if you use other plugins it will be automatically disabled. A lot of people install the plugin without knowing what it does and after that they add many plugins and some of the them are not written fine so the developer took this decision.
If you want to always enable speed booster, delete this code from speed booster file: http://screencast.com/t/RZLIOPUNdqh
Thanks!
Okay. Is there a plan to increase the number of plugins supported.
Because when I saw about this feature in Themeforest theme page, not sure whether I missed the list of plugins supported. It was not mentioned there.
I am planning to use Akismet, its a very trusted one. I will also using Elegent themes monarch plugins. I hope that is fine.
Thanks and regards

Hi,
The speed booster plugin is optional that moves the css and js at the end of the page, this removes render blocking and improves the score on pagespeed. But also to have a good score is recommend to use less plugins.
Many plugins do not respect the google pagespeed recommendations of punting javascript at the end of the page and they just try to use jQuery in the middle of the page. This slows the site down and it also enforces the requirement that jQuery has to be in the header instead of the footer how Google recommends(this is the developer explanation).
We will try to improve this in future, but we don’t have a better solution for the moment.
Thanks!
