Conflict with Email Before Download plugin

as per the FAQ you can (and in this case should) troubleshoot by excluding the relevant JS from optimization.

now if you do NOT aggregate inline JS and if you exclude js/jquery/jquery.js (both are default settings as from AO 2.1), then chances are big everything will work out of the box.

hope this helps,

Hi Frank – thanks for your swift response.

That’s kind of what I thought, but I’m a relative novice, and I don’t know how to identify the relevant JS to exclude. Could you point me in the right direction?

well, first of all did you indeed

NOT aggregate inline JS and if you exclude js/jquery/jquery.js

Ok, I just did that. Now the links do not appear again.

can you share the link to your site (and specifically the page where I can see the problem) here or via futtta-at-gmail-dot-com?

ok, could you give the link to the page where this is happening?

Thanks – I have disabled Optimize Javascript, so currently if you enter your details the download links work. Do you want me to leave it disabled for the time being?

I would need to see it broken, really ??

Or test it yourself and check your browser console for JS errors and copy/paste those here?

Ok – I have broken it now. Please try the link again and enter some details. The links would usually appear under the message, but now with Optimize JS enabled they won’t appear:

https://www.andrewcohen.com/awakening-authentic-self-disc-01/

ok, not an easy one. try adding

contact-form-7/includes/js

to the comma-separated JS exclusion-list (keeping js/jquery/jquery.js in there too).

Nope, that didn’t work.

darn … in that case (until a better solution can be found) I would exclude that page from autoptimization, using code like this (you can use the code snippets plugin to manage such .. code snippets);

add_filter('autoptimize_filter_noptimize','my_ao_noptimize',10,0);
function my_ao_noptimize() {
	if (strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'],'awakening-authentic-self-disc-01/')!==false) {
		return true;
	} else {
		return false;
	}
}

I couldn’t get the Code Snippets plugin to work. It installs, but refuses to activate. Would I add the above code to my functions.php?

yeah, functions.php should also work (but you’ll have to remember to re-add the snippet when updating themes). or you could make it a mini-plugin? ??

I’m using a child theme in X, so I could just add it to the functions.php of the child?
