Blank images

hi @navyspitfire; i compared the homepage of your site with and without autoptimize (adding ?ao_noptimize=1 to the URL) and I don’t see a difference, all background-images seem to load now? if not, can you make a screenshot and upload it somewhere so I can see what I have to look for?

Hi @futtta, this is what I see.

I see the same, but also when AO is disabled (with ?ao_noptimize=1 appended to the URL)?

Hmm I don’t get it, the background image is technically there right? When I inspect the element and go to filepath it’s there.

Edit: Could the issue be with WP super cache?

if the background image is there, but not visible, then this is likely to be a CSS-problem rather then one with WPSC.

but … I see the background images now! go figure!

Hi Frank, I solved the image issue.

I have a conditional gte IE9.css file that is updated but autoptimize is loading a cached version. I deactivated the plugin and there is a still a cached version being loaded. I turned caching off on my server and removed my .htaccess file. Any idea, if I activate autoptimize, how to load the latest version? Even temporarily?

well, autoptimize doesn’t ever cache (or even touch) IE conditionals @navyspitfire .. your CDN maybe?

Can you check out the site on IE? I’m using IE11 and when I inspect the element this is the CSS file that’s loading: https://maryssweets.com/wp-content/cache/autoptimize/css/autoptimize_3a238cf3d149e85a15e7cc374ff5ce7b.css

afraid I don’t have IE11 on this PC (ubuntu linux w. FF & Chrome). I can have a look on Friday on my work-PC though ??

but what I can do is check your HTML source, and that indeed still has the IE9.css-file (confirming it is not merged, touched or cached by AO) in it;

<!--[if gte IE 9]><link rel='stylesheet' id='mary-ie-css' href='https://maryssweets.com/wp-content/themes/risotto_child_theme/css/ie9.css' type='text/css' media='all' /> <![endif]-->

Hmm okay, thank you for your help @futtta. Now I’m completely lost.
