mailchimp js and css files won't compress

    I have been doing speed-tweaking on my site and have enabled compression that seems to be working on files including .js and .css files — with the exception of two Mailchimp files.

    The Mailchimp form code appears in a footer widget that seems to work fine.

    Every time I run the page checker at GT Metrics, the report says that I need to compress these two files:

    s3.amazonaws.com/downloads.mailchimp.com/js/mc-validate.js
    cdn-images.mailchimp.com/embedcode/classic-081711.css

    No other files appear on the list.

    What’s going on and how can I make the two Mailchimp files compress?

    Hi,

    I’m not sure what plugin you are using to compress the files. The old version of the plugin generated some dynamic styles and scripts inline on the site so those wouldn’t be possible to compress.

    The other css and js files are served via wp_enqueue_script/wp_enqueue_style inside of the wp_enqueue_scripts hook, so they should be compressed there.

    I would recommend giving the new re-write of the plugin a shot. We’ve taken the libirty of minifying and compressing all of our files before they are served both to the front and backend of the sites.

    You can download that release here:

    It should be taking the place of the current version in the coming days/weeks.

    Thanks again,
    Evan
