Hello, I purchased Newspaper theme yesterday.
Everything is fine but Speed Booster is not working. It say Disable due to Incompatible Plugins. Incompatible Plugins include: Akimset, MailChimp for WordPress Lite, Read More, Copy Link, TinyMCE Advanced, Ultimate Nofollow, UpdraftPlus – Backup/Restore)
I can’t keep Disable all these Plugins, SO is there anyway to use SPeed Booster with these plugins?
My Website is Hosted on iPage.
I am using WP Super Cache as recommanded by You. As Speed Booster is not working so i have installed Better WOrdpress Minify. I am also using CLoudflare (I have deactivated Minify option in Cloudflare dashboard)
Is It ok to use WP Super cache + Better WordPress Minify + CLoudflare?
Or i can use only WP Super Cache + CLoudflare, as cloudflare also offer Minify JS and CSS option?
I also request you to add feature offered by plugin Read More, Copy Link and Ultimate NOFollow in future updates.
Any other advice to speed up my website?

Hello josan,
As a quick solution to your problem is to comment out this section in the speedbooster file: http://screencast.com/t/RZLIOPUNdqh to override the plugin compatibility. Now it should work with any plugin.
As for the minify, we do not recommend any minification because it will cause lots of problems. We have not found a plugin to minify css and javascript without errors although some users claim this one does the trick https://wordpress.org/plugins/merge-minify-refresh/. We have not tested it tough so we cannot say for sure if it will cause errors or not.
In order to make your website faster you can follow this tutorial: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/
I hope this helps!
Thank you!
Thanks for reply, I am using Better WordPress Minify and its working fine without any problem. I also tried Autoptimize plugin and Cloudflare’s minify feature but both had compatibility issue with lazyLoad feature of Newspaper theme. Because All Images show blank space. When disabled lazyLoad, both worked fine…
I think excluding LazyLoad js can trick
What exactly do you mean by “comment out this section” for your comment

And will this cause issues for plugins or anything?
Hi,
The speed booster is an optional plugin and it is 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.
Thanks!
Alin,
Thanks for your reply. I was asking more about how to actually do that. How do you “comment it out” so that it overrides the plugin compatibility. Then it should work with any plugin.
Hello,
Comments in PHP are as following:
// This is a single-line comment
# This is also a single-line comment
/*
This is a multiple-lines comment block
that spans over multiple
lines
*/
Commenting out a piece of code generates the same result as deleting it, only you do not lose the data. It simply gets ignored. In your case you have to remove the code that makes the speedbooster plugin deactivate.
I hope this helps.
