APH Merge Scripts

Description

Combining and minifying javascript dan stylesheet files can improve the speed the website as it will reduce the number of HTTP Request and reduce the size of the downloaded file.

This plugin helps you to do all of that. It will automatically detect and combine javascript and CSS files loaded by a page, into a single file javascript and CSS.

** Features. **

• Easy to use.
• Merge all CSS and Javascript files into one file – Automatically detect scripts and styles that are required on a page, and then combine them into one file.
• There is a tool in the admin bar that makes it easy to add / manage scripts loaded by a page.
• Support localized script.
• Support remote scripts (Javascript and CSS files hosted on CDN). Built-in parallel download for optimum download time.
• Support YUI Compressor. We don’t use closure compiler as it is not 100% safe. read here
• CSS & Script files URL cleaned from query string, leverage browser cache.
• Easy to view and manage merged files.
• There is an option to put merged script to the header or footer
• Automatically unload CSS and Javascript files that are not found

How To Use

While loading a page, the plugin will automatically detect the scripts and styles used on the page using WP enqueue system.

However, in certain circumstances, there are scripts and styles that are not detected automatically, such as akismet-form that usually comes late in the wp_footer

To check that kind of scripts, first, enable “Show Manage Scripts Menu on the Admin Bar” option in the plugin settings page. This option will add a menu to the admin-bar menu. This menu will appear when you open any page except for the admin page. Now, through that menu, you can choose scripts you want to merge or exclude easily.

The safer script minify compare to others without breaking site and also have a flexibility to select any needed. Thanks

Really Awesome Plugin just be careful

Let me just say that all the other plugins out there to minify JS & CSS either break my site or don’t work at all. With this plugin I can customize which javascript files I want to minify and combine and which I can leave out. Now when you go through the settings be sure to check Show Manage Scripts Menu on the Admin Bar as it’s essential to make sure this plugin works with your theme. By process of elimination you can make sure your theme is intact and the great thing about this plugin is that it does not overwrite any of your javascript or theme files. So with a simple check box you can revert everything as it was. Now my only complaint with this plugin is that still has Query Strings that won’t allow my static content to cache. Also I would appreciate in the future some support with using a CDN like Amazon Cloudfront or WP Engine or MaxCDN.
