Hello,

1. Google keeps giving me this (only) render block error below. I activated Speedbooster and made sure it was not disabled by any other plugin. It didnt make any difference and keeps giving me this error.

How can i solve this?

2. Also, what is the best way to minify JS, CSS and HTML with the Newspaper theme?

3. http://www.webpagetest.org keeps saying i need to optimize the 2 files below. What is the best way to do this? I use Short Pixel to optimize my images.

Hi,

1. Contact Form should not be considered render blocking. By default the Speedbooster plugin will move the plugin resources in the footer, this is tested and it should work properly

This is a useful guide

2. When the Speedbooster plugin is active, a minified theme JS is served, for CSS you could try this solution for example

3. Those images are displayed when there is no thumbnail for the post. If the posts have featured images set, they will be replaced by thumbnails created from them.
There are many useful speed optimization guides here on the forum, here are some of them

@ Simion,

1. This is not an answer to my question. I did use the tutorial. I told you speedbooster is active and still Google keep giving me this Contact Form 7 render error. Why is that?

2. Thanks.

3. Ok. Can i just delete them (safe them first), make them smaller en reupload them again via FTP with the same name?
