As a courtesy, below please find a procedure for using the SG Optimizer (SGO) filters provided here. Procedure has been tested and works like a charm.

Specifically, procedure provided below applies to the SGO filters that call out the following variables or attributes:

$exclude_list[] = 'style-handle';
$exclude_list[] = 'style-handle-2';

and

$exclude_list[] = 'script-handle';
$exclude_list[] = 'script-handle-2';

Procedure:

(1) Install and activate the plugin “Code Snippets.” This plugin will allow you to use SGO’s filters without the need to modify your functions.php file directly. It will also allow you to add “snippets” (php code) to your website in a very simple way.

(2) After activating “Code Snippets,” add and activate the following snippet:

<?php
add_filter( 'script_loader_tag', 'cameronjonesweb_add_script_handle', 10, 3 );
function cameronjonesweb_add_script_handle( $tag, $handle, $src ) {
	return str_replace( '<script', sprintf(
		'<script data-handle="%1$s"',
		esc_attr( $handle )
	), $tag );
}

Above snippet obtained here.

(3) Once activated, the above snippet will generate a ‘data-handle’ (i.e., style or script handle) attribute to all of your enqueued style (css) and script (js) files.

(4) Add the needed SGO filter (snippet) to “Code Snippets.” For example, if you need to exclude a certain script (JS file) from minification, add the following SGO snippet:

<?php
add_filter( 'sgo_js_minify_exclude', 'js_minify_exclude' );
function js_minify_exclude( $exclude_list ) {
    $exclude_list[] = 'script-handle';
    $exclude_list[] = 'script-handle-2';

    return $exclude_list;
}

Note: Do not activate the above snippet at this point.

(5) Go to the affected URL page of your website containing the style or script that needs to be excluded from minification or combination.

(6) After the affected URL page has been loaded, right-click on the page (any location) and select “Inspect Element.” Under “Styles,” enter and search for “handle” or “data-handle.” Click here. You will then see a list of all styles and scripts with a “data-handle.” The “data-handles” presented are equivalent to the “style-handle” or “script-handle” noted in SGO’s filters. Click here for an example of what the results looks like.

(7) Once you identify the affected ‘data-handle'(s) enter it/them into the above snippet (e.g., replace ‘script-handle’ with the ‘data-handle’ name you identified). In our case (example), replace ‘script-handle’ with “tribe-events-dynamic’

(8) After you’ve added all affected ‘data-handles'(s) to SGO’s filter or snippet, save and activate it. Your affected files are now excluded from minification or combination.

Note: It’s perfectly OK to deactivate or delete the ‘data-handle’ snippet presented in Step (2) above after completing Step (8) above.

Comments always welcome. Did the above work for you?

Cheers!

If so, how?

I have a site running okay on a windows host, but for various reasons am considering migrating to the hosts linux package instead (better package value and cloud based). I’m running a genesis framework with a child theme and the typical plugins (W3TC, Yoast SEO, etc). I have a few questions:

1. What are the best practice steps, something like this? Anything missing or out of place?
-Backup website files and database on windows host
-Create new website directory on linux host (host would do this I assume)
-Upload backed-up website files into new website directory on linux host via FTP (will this work or is the structure/files different?)
-Create new database on linux host and import my backed up database
-Adjust wp-config file to point to new database location/credentials
-Add .htaccess rules which are equivalent to the ISAPI rewrite IIRF rules I currently have on the windows host
-Re-create the CNAME/TXT records in cPanel for DKIM with my autoresponder provider
-Test new site (is it possible to do testing before making the actual DNS change? hard-coding my hosts file to resolve to the new IP?) to ensure all features, plugins, etc are working properly
-Make DNS change and wait for it to propagate across internet (host)
-Full testing again
-Take a final backup of website/database on windows host (as a last resort in case something important changed between the first copy and the DNS change)
-Remove old website from windows host, delete old database from windows host, delete server repository on windows host, etc (host)

2. Would you recommend I deactivate any plugins before taking the backup/copy to be uploaded on the linux host? For example, I was thinking it might be a good idea to clear all cache and deactivate the W3TC plugin and then re-enable it after all steps are done?

Many thanks for your help and advice. I find hosts are very “re-active” and are not as interested in planning these things out (“Let’s just go and deal with issues as they arise”), whereas I prefer to have it all planned to ensure nothing is missed and the transition is smooth…well as smooth as possible!

Pratically after i finished the procedure, my site is not seen correctly in the browser but like if the css part has not been moved…so i can see only the html part and the images in a kind of list but the css and the features of the template don’t appear.

Does anybody know why this problem occur? Or can someone suggest an alternative valid procedure to move a site to the root?

Here is the code used:

{
    -webkit-column-count: 2; /* Chrome, Safari, Opera */
    -moz-column-count: 2; /* Firefox */
    column-count: 2;
}

#content p {
	Font-family: palatino-linotype, palatino, book antiqua, serif;
	Text-indent: 15px:
	Line-height: 1 em:
	margin: 0;
	padding: 0;
}

I find myself asking, is there more I need to do?. BTW, this is a problem with every theme I have tried

function wp_insert_comment($commentdata) {
	$comment_ID = comment_ID;
	$comment_post_ID = comment_post_ID;
	$comment_author = comment_author;
	$comment_author_email = comment_author_email;
	$comment_author_url = comment_author_url;
	$comment_author_IP = comment_author_IP;
	$comment_date = comment_date;
	$comment_date_gmt = comment_date_gmt;
	$comment_content = comment_content;
	$comment_karma = comment_karma;
	$comment_approved = comment_approved;
	$comment_agent = comment_agent;
	$comment_type = comment_type;
	$comment_parent = comment_parent;
	$user_id = user_id;
	global $wpdb;
	extract(wp_unslash($commentdata), EXTR_SKIP);

	if ( ! isset($comment_author_IP) )
		$comment_author_IP = '';
	if ( ! isset($comment_date) )
		$comment_date = current_time('mysql');
	if ( ! isset($comment_date_gmt) )
		$comment_date_gmt = get_gmt_from_date($comment_date);
	if ( ! isset($comment_parent) )
		$comment_parent = 0;
	if ( ! isset($comment_approved) )
		$comment_approved = 1;
	if ( ! isset($comment_karma) )
		$comment_karma = 0;
	if ( ! isset($user_id) )
		$user_id = 0;
	if ( ! isset($comment_type) )
		$comment_type = '';

	//$data = compact('comment_post_ID', 'comment_author', 'comment_author_email', 'comment_author_url', 'comment_author_IP', 'comment_date', 'comment_date_gmt', 'comment_content', 'comment_karma', 'comment_approved', 'comment_agent', 'comment_type', 'comment_parent', 'user_id');
	$wpdb->insert($wpdb->comments, '$comment_ID','$comment_post_ID', '$comment_author', '$comment_author_email', '$comment_author_url', '$comment_author_IP', '$comment_date', '$comment_date_gmt', '$comment_content', '$comment_karma', '$comment_approved', '$comment_agent', '$comment_type', '$comment_parent', '$user_id');
	//$wpdb->insert($wpdb->comments, 'comment_post_ID', 'comment_author', 'comment_author_email', 'comment_author_url', 'comment_author_IP', 'comment_date', 'comment_date_gmt', 'comment_content', 'comment_karma', 'comment_approved', 'comment_agent', 'comment_type', 'comment_parent', 'user_id');

	$id = (int) $wpdb->insert_id;

	if ( $comment_approved == 1 )
		wp_update_comment_count($comment_post_ID);

	$comment = get_comment($id);

	/**
	 * Fires immediately after a comment is inserted into the database.
	 *
	 * @since 2.8.0
	 *
	 * @param int $id      The comment ID.
	 * @param obj $comment Comment object.
	 */
	do_action( 'wp_insert_comment', $id, $commen );

	wp_cache_set( 'last_changed', microtime(), 'comment' );

	return $id;
}

So here I send all the variables to another function, because it didn’t work with the array solution that was previously used. So i send the variables to

function _insert_replace_helper( $table, $comment_ID, $comment_post_ID, $comment_author, $comment_author_email, $comment_author_url, $comment_author_IP, $comment_date, $comment_date_gmt, $comment_content, $comment_karma, $comment_approved, $comment_agent, $comment_type, $comment_parent, $user_id, $format = null, $type = 'INSERT' ) {

$sql = "CALL CommentsProcedure('$comment_ID', '$comment_post_ID', '$comment_author', '$comment_author_email', '$comment_author_url', '$comment_author_IP', '$comment_date', '$comment_date_gmt', '$comment_content', '$comment_karma', '$comment_approved', '$comment_agent', '$comment_type', '$comment_parent', '$user_id')";

		return $this->query( $this->prepare( $sql, $comment_ID, $comment_post_ID, $comment_author, $comment_author_email, $comment_author_url, $comment_author_IP, $comment_date, $comment_date_gmt, $comment_content, $comment_karma, $comment_approved, $comment_agent, $comment_type, $comment_parent, $user_id ) );
	}

And heres the procedure i made

DELIMITER $$

CREATE PROCEDURE <code>CommentsProcedure</code>(IN comment_ID bigint(20), IN comment_post_ID bigint(20), IN comment_author tinytext, IN comment_author_email VARCHAR(100), IN comment_author_url VARCHAR(200), IN comment_author_IP VARCHAR(100), IN comment_date datetime, IN comment_date_gmt datetime, IN comment_content text,
 IN comment_karma int(11), IN comment_approved VARCHAR(20), IN comment_agent VARCHAR(255), IN comment_type VARCHAR(20), IN comment_parent bigint(20), IN user_ID bigint(20))

	VALUES(comment_ID, comment_post_ID, comment_author, comment_author_email, comment_author_url, comment_author_IP, comment_date, comment_date_gmt, comment_content, comment_karma, comment_approved, comment_agent, comment_type, comment_parent, user_id);

END

I have no clue what i do wrong, would be helpful if someone could give me some guidance.(Sorry for the bad english, not native speaker, feel free to ask if something is unclear.)
Thanks in advance

I installed the plugin Sitemap Generator WP but have NO IDEA what to do to make it work. I can’t find ANY info on this. Maybe it’s just me, but anyways:

I have installed the plugin.
I set my options.
And what then? Do I need to generate the sitemaps? And if so, what do I do after clicking the links on the generate page? Am I done or do I need to do something else like adding a sitemap to my menu (and how do I do that?)?

Sounds like a lot of questions, but what I am asking is:

Does anyone have a step-by-step manual of how to implement this plugin and make it work?

Thx in advance!!!

Robin
