Not really impressive as much as Autoptimize

  • I have been using Autoptimize for a while now, but I decided to switch to this since someone said in here this is better than Autoptimize, but after few testing I found that this doesn’t even minify html, and not really good either. I didn’t even see it optimizes anything, my css/js files are still on the page separately when using this. I thought it is supposed to aggregate them into one single file to reduce the response time?

    edit: one more star for being active in the plugin page.

    Hi Cuta,

    You are correct, MMR doesn’t minify HTML. We might add this in an update.

    Files won’t merge for various reasons (different css media types, header or footer scripts etc etc.) intentionally because otherwise the websites could break. Additional work may be required in order to set the right order of JS and CSS includes.

    I can confirm that the plugin’s logic is sound and the expected output is accurate. MMR does exactly what it states in its description. It follows your themes directives for stylesheets and scripts and doesn’t reorder them to force any minification. That would potentially break many sites. The UI is simple and gives you the ability to exclude certain scripts. For all that, I find it worthy of 5 stars. I do hope you’ll consider looking into the documentation further and testing your site. It’s more than likely that MMR was following your theme’s functions.php file correctly.
