The advice above worked for me! I recently updated to the newest Yoast SEO premium version 14.0.4 and now the breadcrumb shortcode [wpseo_breadcrumb] no longer functions. The shortcode simply displays as text.

My breadcrumb toggle was not showing. I activated the twenty twenty theme and the toggle came back. Then I was able to re-activate my previous theme and breadcrumbs are working. So it was stuck in disabled mode I suppose.

Thanks for the input @binarywc, much appreciated! You are confirming what I expected to be true

Wow, your suggestion definitely had an effect. I trashed the current autoptimize plugin and installed v2.3.4. Then I re-activated the power-up. Still nothing at this point. I then updated the autoptimize plugin to v2.5.1. Then I went ahead and manually created a cron event for ao_ccss_queue and presto, I now have created a full job queue.

I see that the homepage is properly injecting the inline style from the API. Now the issue seems to be that the other jobs in the queue aren’t being executed. The bottom 4 jobs in the list are now stuck on pending “P”. I’ve left debugging on. Thanks for your help thus far, almost there!

Ok, just following up on the fact that after turning off all plugins (other than autoptimize and power-up), I found no plugin conflicts. At no point was the style injected into the homepage. I’ll start a ticket with my hosting provider just to see if they have noticed any error logs that I don’t have access to. Otherwise, I’m dead in the water unless you have any other ideas?

Yes, “Inline and Defer CSS?” is checked in the Autoptimize settings. I’ll go through the other active plugins as you describe and let you know if any conflicts present themselves. I really want this plugin to work as it would be a huge timesaver! thanks

Ok, deactivating didn’t do it so I added the cron event manually via WP Crontrol and now the “is_front_page” rule status changed from “P” to “auto”. Still not seeing the Critical CSS code on the frontend however. I’ve bounced around to some other unique page urls as a non-logged in user and there are not ccss jobs being added automatically for those pages.

I still have debugging turned on. Not sure if I’m on autopilot here yet?

Correct, those are not listed. The screenshot contains the only “ao_” events I could see

Hi, thanks for the suggestions. I’ve deactivated both Autoptimize and the Critical CSS power-up, then reactivated in that order. Still not seeing the cron event in question but judging by the timestamps I’m seeing, there are others associated with Autoptimize that appear to be running so I think cron jobs are fine at the hosting level (I have a screenshot if you need: see screenshot)

All set! debug logging is active

Hi! I turned debug mode off, but I can turn it back on if that helps? Ok, debug mode is now active

I’m also trying out the plugin for the first time and it’s not working for me. Site is on a dev server so I can’t share a link, sorry! I see no javascript errors in the console, no plugin conflicts so it appears to be failing silently… My thought is it could be related to WordPress 5.2 update?

relevant form code is:

 <li class="field-wrap cf">
        <span><strong>Choose to Submit an Essay or a Video</strong></span>
        [select contact-essay_or_video "-- Choose submission type --" "Submit Essay" "Submit Video"]
        [group group-essay]
            [file contact-essay_file filetypes:zip,doc,txt]
        [/group]
        [group group-video]
            [text contact-video_url placeholder "youtube.com/watch?v=abCdeFjKlm -or- vimeo.com/12345678"]
        [/group]
    </li>

and conditional code is:

show [group-essay] if [contact-essay_or_video] equals "Submit Essay"
show [group-video] if [contact-essay_or_video] equals "Submit Video"
