Google Maps Load Optimization

  • When I show a map with the plugin, Pingdom ends up going crazy with:

    Remove query strings from static resources
    Specify a cache validator

    from a bunch of google maps api resources. Is there a way to optimize this? If not, can I force the plugin not to load the google maps scripts, so I can use another plugin?

    Thanks
    John

  • Hi @jstakel,

    Sorry for the delay in responding. This got buried under a mountain of emails over the holidays and I’m just now seeing it.

    Google Maps does load a ton of resources, but these are loaded asynchronously so that they don’t block the page render. Performance tools like Pingdom are only guides and you should try to understand the true impact of any issue on your site. It’s likely that the Google Maps assets aren’t having a big effect your time to first paint.

    If you still want to remove the maps, you can use the options in the widget or the attributes in the shortcode. You can learn more about the shortcode here:
