    Hi,

    I am very happy to use Embed Chessboard with WordPress. As far as I can see there is no real alternative among the available plugins.

    However, there is one problem. The .js files of the plugin can’t be treated by optimization plugins and cause therefore blocking resources that have a huge impact on the pageload time if you use several boards in one post. I am far from being an expert in these things. As far as I understand it, the wp_enqueue_script is missing. You will know what I am trying to express as a technical dilettante. ??

    My question. Is there a chance to change this somehow in order to improve the performance of the posts where the plugin is used?

    Kind Regards

    I’m not a www.remarpro.com expert either, but it seems to me that wp_enqueue_script applies to script loaded by the wordpress page, while the pgn4web scripts are loaded into an iframe added to the page, hence outside the scope of wp_enqueue_script.

    I might be wrong though, I’m open to more specific suggestion and actual code patches to improve the plugin.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your fast reply. If it loads with an iframe, it’s just like the youtube videos, it’s external. However, I send you the link with a test on the GTmetrix site where you can see the problems with the .js and the image dimensions. Unlike the youtube videos the files of the player load from the local server or the cdn. Maybe there is a chance for improvement:

    However, many thanks for your work. I like the simplicity of the design and the clean functionality very much. I have found no other plugin that is able to simply display a local pgn file in a wordpress post.
    Kind Regards

    Sorry but I find those “optimization” tools a waste of time.

    I’m open to review any specific suggestion and code patch. I’m also open to address any real issue with the plugin; not scoring 100% in a random validation/optimization test is not a big deal.

    “A waste of time” is very much to the point. That’s exactly what the plugin files cause for the visitors of a website. But it’s your decision, if you don’t care about these things, we simply have to accept that. However, thank you once again for your for work.
