    Hi,

    We start using your “TablePress” plug-in for our site ‘lordbingo.co.uk’ not long ago.

    Based on Google Developers Tool, it seems that your plug-in (besides others) causing our site speed to be very low!

    1. Is there a way to compress your files?
    2. Also your CSS files are render blocking our above the fold content!

    Do you have a solution for this?

    Many thanks!
    Michel

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    I can’t really see how TablePress could be causing this. The TablePress CSS files are already minified and compressed, even the “Custom CSS” is minified and concatenated to the default CSS.
    The CSS files are loaded in the <head> part of the page, according to the HTML standard, there’s nothing blocking there. The CSS files are needed early as you would otherwise see a flash of unstyled content.

    If you really can pinpoint this to TablePress, please provide some more details. Thanks!

    Regards,
    Tobias

    Hi Tobias,

    Thanks for your reply!

    Please have a look at this URL:

    https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.lordbingo.co.uk&tab=desktop

    Similar situation for Mobile tab.

    For example, check out sections “Should Fix”, over there you will see on several occasions URLs mentioned related to your Table Press plug-in.

    Please let me know your thoughts on this & how possible we can fix it!

    Thanks a lot,
    Michel

    Hi Michel,

    the most severe issue there seems to be that your server is not using GZIP for sending CSS files to the browser. This is something that needs to be enabled in the server configuration.
    Also, your server is not instructing the browser to cache resources, like images, so that they are transmitted on every request.

    The TablePress URLs just happen to be in there, as they appear in the HTML code of the page. There’s nothing really at the moment that can be made better here.

    Regards,
    Tobias

    Hi Michel,

    always happy when I can help! ??

    You can find my email in the main plugin file “tablepress.php”, but for support questions, I prefer the WordPress forums here, if that is ok.

    Best wishes,
    Tobias

    P.S.: In case you haven’t, please rate TablePress here in the plugin directory. Thanks!
