Danke für deine Antwort Ulf,

Ja, ich habe es auch mit dem Hochladen eines frischen Fotos versucht, aber da es über 60 kb gro? war, passierte auch da nichts. Ich hatte übersehen, dass sie nicht über ca. 25 kb gro? sein dürfen. Damit ist Optimus für mich unbrauchbar. Wenn ich Bilder schon so klein habe, dann mache ich mir nicht wirklich noch Sorgen über die Gr??e.

Ich habe dann wp smush.it geladen und das Plugin ist der Hammer! Meine Seite war bis dahin 86/100 schnell (bei Google Speed Test Insight) und mit smush.it wurde es regelrecht hochgejagt zu 96/100, mehr geht eigentlich nur noch mit viel Bastelei. Mit dem Plugin kann man Bilder auch nachtr?glich mit einem Knopfdruck verkleinern, super einfach, super schnell.

Sorry Sergej, but I was mistaken when I wrote this comment. My picture did not change at all in size with Optimus, 68 kb remained 68 kb (which I saw only after I had postet my comment here) and for the simple reason that your plugin only works on pictures below 25 kb as far as I remember having read.

I now use wp smush.it which immedediately/within minutes took my site on Google Insight Speed Test from 86/100 to 96/100 without turning any other screws! This is what I call a PERFECT plugin! I had expected a small improvement but not such success.

Leider trinke ich kein Bier, sondern nur K?lsch, aber du kannst mir gerne ein F??chen zukommen lassen, denn die Leistung von wp smush.it ist das mindestens wert!

ulfklose, was hast du gemacht, damit optimus überhaupt etwas tut? Bei mir passiert n?mlich nichts. Muss ich irgendwo einen START-button drücken ;)?

Thanks Frank, I see clearer now and you also took me to more information and testing tools.

I must say that your support here is absolutely perfect! Thank you so much.

Thanks Frank, but I still do not understand your answer here.

In your FAQ you say “to paste the block of “about the fold CSS” in the input field”. But what does that mean? Where does one copy “the block”, where does it come from? What does this block look like?

I understand your thoughts about Google Insight and will consider them, but nevertheless I want to do the best I can especially as it sounds very easy in your FAQ. But I just do not understand about which “block” you are talking about.

When you say it is easy “

As from Autoptimize 1.9.0 this is easy; select “inline and defer CSS”, paste the block of “above the fold CSS” in the input field (text area) and you’re good to go!

” and it isn’t or it is a danger to the website than maybe it would be a good idea to change your FAQ accordingly ;).

I am sure others have the same problem …

Sorry back again ??

paste the block of “above the fold CSS” in the input field (text area)

Which block??? I cannot find anything about “above the fold CSS” in Autooptimize.

Me again ??

Did you mean this one?

I activated Autoptimize, but Google Pagespeed Insight still complains?

If you have render-blocking JS: be sure not to tick the “force JS in head” if not absolutely needed.

If you have render-blocking CSS: consider to “inline” or “inline and defer” your CSS. There’s more info on these topics below.
What is the use of “inline and defer CSS”?

CSS in general should go in the head of the document. Recently a.o. Google started promoting deferring non-essential CSS, while inlining those styles needed to build the page above the fold. This is especially important to render pages as quickly as possible on mobile devices. As from Autoptimize 1.9.0 this is easy; select “inline and defer CSS”, paste the block of “above the fold CSS” in the input field (text area) and you’re good to go!

I will have a look at it and try my best. Maybe you will never have to hear from me then ??

Morning Frank ??

Thank you for your quick answer.

I had looked at your FAQ before writing my first post here, but being a complete beginner in WordPress and with all this SEO stuff I had a problem finding the right answer to this problem. Would you please be so kind and lead me to it? Where exactly in your FAQ will I find this option you mentioned?

I am sorry, I do not want to keep you busy but I still am kind of helpless here. I am willing and trying to learn but I often still need step-by-step help and someone pointing at the right direction.

Thank you for your great support!
Tina

Ops … I am not sure if this was the right place to post it. I thought it would be posted next to the plugin’s comments. If it is wrong here, please just delete it.

Thanks.
