I’m going to mark this as ‘Resolved’.
After reading this from UpdraftPlus, it’s answered my question and I’ve decided to restore only from phpMyAdmin and FTP from now on.
I’d recommend any newbies read it.

Okay, thanks.

They’ve not been very helpful so far, but if there’s no way I can fix it myself (and as it wasn’t me who created the issue), then I’ll give them another try.

Hi

Yes, that’s right.
I’ve changed all the other prefixes from the standard wp_ for security, so I’d change wpftsi_docs, for example, to something like jdijf6gf7_wpftsi_docs.

Okay, thanks.

I’m going to mark this as ‘resolved’ as I’m going to pass fixing it on to someone who knows more about this stuff than me!

Thanks for your help.

If I enable ‘Generate UCSS’, ‘Guest Mode’ or ‘Guest Optimization’, the effect is the same; the site is totally unusable.

I’ve got 8 entries in ‘CSS Excludes’ now. Do I just keep adding them whenever they show up in PSI until there are no more?

This entry in ‘JS Excludes’ and ‘JS Deferred/Delayed Excludes’…

…doesn’t break my site any longer, but it still shows up in PSI ‘Eliminate render-blocking resources’. I can’t seem to get rid of it! Is that right?

Thanks for that.

I went through the page step-by-step.
I excluded the file name linked in my first message to you. That one has stopped appearing in PSI.

Unfortunately, I now have two different files repeatedly causing an issue.
This one…..

https://vital50plus.com/wp-content/litespeed/css/dfa33d2441a777b81ef56a92ef394739.css?ver=efc55

…..shows up in both ‘Eliminate render-blocking resources’ and ‘Reduce unused CSS’ in PSI, even after I’ve excuded the partial string up to and including ‘.css’.
It’s exactly the same file each time I run a test, but the ‘ver’ number is different.

This one…..

https://vital50plus.com/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.min.js

…..shows only in ‘Eliminate render-blocking resources’, but if I exclude it, my PSI score drops down from high-80s to low-20s.

As the page suggested, I tried turning off all the CSS and JS settings, but the site was noticeably slower.

Would the server/speed have any effect on the issues I’m seeing?

Hi

Another issue with PSI I have is that I am now getting a ‘Properly Size Images’ instruction in ‘Opportunities’.
I have deleted the old 700KB jpg image from ‘Media Library’, uploaded a new, compressed jpg 100KB version and tried every image size setting in Elementor but I can’t eliminate the instruction.

I’ve noticed in ‘Image Library’ that in the ‘LiteSpeed Optimisation’ column it states:

i Orig saved 4% (optm)

WebP—

It looks like the image isn’t being compressed and PSI is telling me that it can be so I guess that’s why the instruction is still there?

I’ve tried toggling off and on the WebP setting in ‘Image Optimisation’, but that hasn’t helped.

Hi
Many thanks for the quick reply.

I tried that and it makes my site completely unusable (viewing both on laptop and mobile).

I fixed the issue myself.

Okay, thanks.

Hi
Thanks for your speedy reply.

The backup worked last night at the time I set, even though those two cron events still don’t have an action.

Should I make the changes you recommended or leave well alone?!

Okay….everything is back…and your fix worked, thank you.

Are there any disadvantages to leaving the Cache REST API button off?

Yeah, I tried landscape but it’s still not showing.
I’m on my laptop now, but I can’t generate a submission to test if your fix has worked because it looks like Hostinger and my server is down!
Not a great start to the day!
As soon as they’re back, I’ll be in touch.

For some reason, that top bar is missing from my mobile view.

I’ll be home in 15 minutes or so. I’ll try it then and get back to you.

Thanks

How do I ‘Purge all’ using Chrome on my mobile? I can’t see it anywhere.

I don’t have access to my laptop right now.
