We’ll keep this thread open waiting for a reply for another week, then we’ll mark it as closed.

Sorry, it seems I’ve misunderstood how this stuff is supposed to work.

My entire site’s homepage is here: https://gutternaut.net/

But the link I’m talking about came from this:

An unexpected error has occurred. As this error may be temporary, please try and refresh the Critical CSS.

Hello there!

Thank you so much for providing the site URL.

I was able to look into the issue and I think I might have pinpointed the problem.

The page that is timing out has an amazon ad (here’s a partial link – https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=gutternaut-20) that keeps loading and times out after ~90 seconds. You can try to open it for yourself to see that it doesn’t load (make sure you open it in a browser without an ad blocker). It’s probably why the critical css generation fails. I checked some other pages, but none of them have this problem.

If possible, could you try disabling the amazon related ad script on your site and see if generation works? If you can’t get it to work, I would advise you remove the script as it’s broken.

Have a great day!

Okay removed those labels and the css is regenerated.

Great! I’m happy to hear that.

Feel free to follow up for anything else.
