Plugin has got compatibility issues with PHP 8.1
Issue: ICONS break on the website and is replaced with some weird characters.
Example Icons: Basket ICON / Down arrow / Wish list Heart Icon etc.
Issue is after upgrading PHP from 8.0 to 8.1 (stable release).
If plugin is deactivated with PHP 8.1 icons return to their normal view. Enable it and converts icons to weird characters again.
Reverted back PHP to 8.0 and it works perfectly fine.
Can this be fixed as in order to stay inline with the latest stable PHP releases, please?

Broke site as soon as I activated it. Neato. I read in other reviews that the plugin author said ‘it’s meant for advanced users’ and ‘manually adjust settings’.
1) Well that should be in big bold words on the plugin page
2) You should put more emphasis on guiding users through the process
3) That’s a great way to make a plugin less popular, since this is a frontend facing product, where your average user isn’t tech savvy. A successful plugin will cater to the dumbest of the dumbest people who are also in a rush. Most people aren’t tech-savvy and just want to push ‘activate’, click on a few recommended settings, and go. People shouldn’t have to read up documentation just for a freakin plugin. It’s up to the WP plugin author to make that possible, not the users. Or don’t, and let a better competitor come along who does. This is why the customer is always right. Because better competition will always come along and they’ll just switch to them.
A lot of cynical IT people will say “user error” or “you’re lazy” or “you’re retarded” lol. No, it’s that business owners have 100 other things – which are usually more profitable and higher ROI – to focus on, and plugins not working shouldn’t be one of them.

Installed it and was impressed because it seemed to make my sites visibly faster.
They were probably faster because it disables Yoast title rewrites. I tried a few configuration changes but I couldn’t get it to work with Yoast and I had to remove it.
I hope these issues can be fixed because FVM very promising.

This plugin seriously broke two sites I maintain. The sites are unrelated and not on the same servers.
I spent the better part of two days on calls with tech support and Googling for ways to solve obscure error log messages about premature end of script errors. The tech’s at the hosting company were stumped and basically gave up. I disabled ALL plugins and brought them back one by one – until this one trashed the site yet again – with a 500 server error which mysteriously goes away on a refresh. I know this is supposed to be a good plugin. I’ve used it before without any problems but now – now I’m going to write a sticky note to remind myself NOT to install this plugin again.
Now, because I know this is a good plugin for a lot of people, I would be happy to help debug and beta test to find out why it failed to miserably for me and I’m sure others.

Thank you so much for the new 3.1.5 release.
It was PSI 97/100, and now it’s 99/100 !!!
Of course, apart from using FVM, a lot of work has been done to optimize the site.
But the Fast Velocity Minify plugin helped a lot.
Thank you, good luck!

Try to deinstalle it,
once you have installed it.
And no i did not deinstalle it by saving the fvm configuration.
Broke the site it is all what it does.
Not possible to take it down again

Since 3.x release I only have issues with the plugin. After the update, I had to reconfigure it completely. Not very convenient, but OK if it’s only one time job .. why not go through all the settings and set it up again. But still the plugin sometimes breaks scripts, throws a lot of errors and warnings in php error log etc. Used to work well, but for now I disabled it on all sites and will check after another bigger release if the situation got better.

But the new version is not as good as I expected.
The complicated setting interface does not work from time to time.
Strange CDN settings(not work neither), supports that do not solve problems.
I want the old version back, please.

I tried several cache / optimizers and of course a lot of combinations.
To make a long story short, the best combination is Fast Velocity Minify with WP Performance Score Booster.
Average Insight speeds Mobile 38 / Desktop 65 (no optimization, no cache)
Than average speeds: Mobile 60 / Desktop 86 (both plugins).
All for free. I have to thank you very much, you are one of the people that keep the initial WordPress idea (everything is free of charge) alive.
Chapeau!

This is the best plugin ever ! upgrading to version 3.0.8 skyrocketed my Pagespeed Insights score – especially for mobile (96%), desktop (99%).
in my case previous version (2.x) did good job for desktop only, so definitively worthy to upgrade and spend some time to know new approach.

Uninstalling this. It was working for a couple of months, now after the wordpress update. It completely broke my site.

The plugin does not work as in the previous version. FVM will be fine, but now it does nothing. It crashes all JS files and crashes the Adsense script as well. The Purgue Cache Minify button is gone and now has an empty message about deleting minify files.
The plugin is practically dead and is not worth installing because it does not work as before.
I hope this comment is approved now, because that is what happens with Fast Velocity Minify. I’m just being honest.

I have used both, old and now also the new version. First upgrading from 2.89 to 3.0.x did not went very easly, javascript settings needed to add manually, but it seems that the plugin is at the same level or even better, than before.
I am one happy user of FVM ??
Thank you Raul!

Habe been using it for 3 years! Thank You,Paul! Excuse me for this late review.
It gives awesome results. Better than Autoptimize .
It’s gives an incredible speed optimization for CSS ,JavaScript and HTML files on a WordPress installation.
Minification, merging ,inlining, deferring,async,etc. Just be sure you know what you are doing.
For free!!!

The new version 3.0 was launched, like many, I had some problems initially, but after configured correctly, the site was much better, with great emphasis on the mobile version that gained many more points on the pagespeed.
The recommendation is to read the help in the application, mainly in the javascript part, which helps to put the recommended settings for the correct functioning of the plugin (which should have come by default).

This is the best HTML minification plugin in WordPress today!
Using this plugin you can get green results in PageSpeed Insights. (up to 75/94 after 97/100).
A unique result in GTmetrix.
Many thanks to the author Raul Peixoto.

I’m not saying my setting are excellent. But I realized, if you do the setting right? It will work like a charm. I played with it and comparing back/fore. It sure makes my site flash page-by-page. It sure kicks up a huge notch on GTmetrix.
Thanks for creating this plugin.
You rock big time. Here’s 5 stars just for you.

I took my time to make the first rating in WP system to give 5 stars to this plugin.
So far I have not really bothered to take the time to write the review, even when I have been very disappointed with some of the plugins that have crashed our site.
But now I decided to give credit to those that really deserve it!
I have been using FVM quite a long time now and I can say it is officially the Best Plugin for WordPress Speed I have found after testing numerous others. Is till use some additional plugins but most of the work does FVM.
Great work!

I have used it on basic informative websites and even on e-commerce websites and it works pretty good! I prefer it over some premium plugins too. It takes some time to understand a few options but it is a great plugin once you understand it. My only request is to have an option to do not touch Google Fonts. I use OMGF plugin to download and server Google Fonts locally.

It seems to work fine as long as you don’t use any custom themes/fields within the templates.
The problems couldn’t be fixed and we never heard from the developer again.
But for a free plugin it does it job quite well.

The ?Exclude CSS files from PSI? function is great! There is no such thing anywhere!
Please: consider to replace the class name. As I understand it, the plugin handles the entire structure and it would be great to have a function like this to rename class names. This is not directly related to optimization, but it does have an impact. For example, if you replace the ?elementor? Builder class with ?elem?, the size of styles and dom structures will decrease significantly)
