autoptimize 1.8.x: problems and how to solve them

Ah ok I figured it out, for some reason some of the values, like for example

font-family

was not being applied unless I added !important

Even though there’s no other font-family in the css files. Weird

I was about to setup a test-blog for you, so I’m glad you got it sorted out ??

Well this is the only plugin that worked for me in minifying my files but unfortunately it stops Adsense from displaying, Maxblogpress subscribers magnet pop up from working

Well, it’s all about configuration Healthable, as you found out in the mean time (for the adsense part) ??

Quick update; I just committed a test-build of AO 1.8.5 to the trunk-build with multiple small improvements and bugfixes (still have to write the changelog). It would be great if you could download & test to confirm this does work?

Your plugin screwed up our site. We tried deleting it, we tried deleting super cache…but nothing works. How can you release such a stupid plugin which screws up everyone’s work.

i have sent you an email with details.. please FIX urgently.

This is crazy.

Andy

It was not autoptimize that screwed up the site. It was some sort of cache issue that arose after we installed autoptimize. Our developers fixed it. Sorry for the confusion.

Andy

Thanks for clarifying Andy!

hello futtta,

just for your information I ran into issues after a mass upgrade to:

autoptimize 1.8.5
wordpress 3.9.1
Pagelines Framework 2.4.5

– top navbar dropdown menus no longer there;
– feature slider css broken, shows all feature images instead of transition effect.

Solution: Simply disabling html optimization fixes the issue. The other setting
is just css optimiziation, no js.

If you like, you can see the site here (in fixed state):

Just tell me if you need me to reproduce the error.

interesting Blau. what version of AO were you on before? changes in the last few version were pretty minor. my bet would be on the pagelines framework. do you have any idea what exactly breaks (or rather, why it does) when enabling HTML optimization?

frank

Hi frank, I can’t remember the original AO version, my guess is a Pagelines Framework snafu, but can’t be sure because I didn’t notice it immediately when I did my step by step upgrades.

blau

No hands-on experience with Pagelines I’m afraid. Looked at the website and I’m somewhat confused; is this a plugin (and/or theme) I can install in a default WP, or is this a WP-distro which I have to install from scratch? Or do you have a test-install which I could play around with to see what is going on?
