Optimize JavaScript Code breaks site since update

    Hi,

    I discovered since the update that my posts had huge (arbitrary) gaps between them. So I set about finding the problem – and finally did.

    When I have the option “Optimize JavaScript Code?” checked – the gaps are there – when I disable it, it goes away. The plugin worked great, WITH Javascript code enabled – AND helped my page speed, now it doesn’t and I have no idea what is doing what between the plugin and my theme – or if this is also something to do with the new “caching” option – I already have a cache plugin –

    Here’s an example of the site with the gap (I currently have the option disabled so that isn’t displaying until I can work it out)

    Here is a screenshot of the site with the gap:

    Hi Frank,

    Update:
    Checking that Javascript error and couldn’t locate it –

    Then I installed the plugin update when I saw it was available –

    Ran the test – couldn’t locate the error…

    Disabled the plugin … cleared the cache…

    Ran the test again and the error goes away.

    I see no js error either ..

    you have no autoptimize running now (CSS nor JS)?

    Sigh .. no after I updated it and still saw the error – I disabled it then tested again and the error was gone …

    well, as:
    * the problem you originally posted about (the gaps) only are apparent when enabling JS optimization
    * the rollback to 2.0.0 didn’t solve your problem, so the problem is likely caused by something else.

    I would propose to:
    1. re-enable AO with HTLM & CSS optimization.
    2. once you have a “proven good” baseline we could try looking into JS?

    Ok, that’s what I did – the error is back…

    the error is back

    the error as in the gaps (I don’t seem them though?
    or do you mean the google pagespeed warning?

    No, the Java error is back – the gaps only come back if I enable the Java Script option… I did as you said above and enabled the html and the css.

    I don’t see a java(script) error, can you copy-paste it?

    Thread Starter bcr8tive

    (@bcr8tive)

    the same one that you brought to my attention with the Java Console?

    It went away when I disabled the plugin – you said to reinstall and re-enable the plugin and turn on html and css but not the java – I did that and when I did, the java console error returned.

    hold it; just spotted this one:

    SyntaxError: illegal character

    this one is due to the HTML optimizer choking an a HTML-type comment inside javascript;

    <script type="text/javascript">

<!-- #GooglePlusOne -->

(function (w, d, load) {
...
}(window, document,
 ['//assets.pinterest.com/js/pinit.js']
));
</script>

    becomes:

    <script type="text/javascript">#GooglePlusOne -->

(function (w, d, load) {
...
}(window, document,
 ['//assets.pinterest.com/js/pinit.js']
));</script>

    solution: either (have someone) fix the plugin that incorrectly uses a HTML comment inside javascript or disable HTML autoptimizing (which is the least important one).

    I dont know which plugin is writing that and the only someone I have working on this is me – and you … if you know, and let me know, I’ll pull it through ftp and look at it –

    Regarding the plugin, I disabled the html – and the error is gone again.

    However, its the Optimize JavaScript Code option that initially broke, and also the one that Pagespeed needs the most .. without causing the gaps (lol)

    round and round we go ..

    Have to go to bed, its morning here – will catch up with you tomorrow.
