CSS stripped down – no errors

    Hey guys, what could be the reason for not getting that error regarding excessive CSS, I used to find that usually in the <head> – ‘the following stylesheets are too large to be included in style[amp-custom]’ + a lot of info on what has been excluded/included.

    The problem is that I have a bunch of elements that don’t get to be styled, the styling for them is definitely not in <amp-custom> but there’s no error.

    Any hints?

    p.s.: using WP 5.2.4, AMP v1.3.0 + custom theme

    Hi @cosmins

    We realized that this debug comment in the head could become quite large. That’s why we now only show it when either WP_DEBUG is set or when there was effectively excessive CSS (> 50 KB).

    In your case it seems like there is no excessive CSS, but the CSS has been removed as it was deemed to be unused on the page. Perhaps that was a false positive.

    I suggest turning on WP_DEBUG to investigate this, and if that doesn’t help, please share your markup + expected CSS here.

    Note: We’ve also made a bunch of changes to CSS handling in the upcoming 1.4.0 release, so you might want to give the current beta a try. You can download it here: https://github.com/ampproject/amp-wp/releases/tag/1.4.0-beta1

    big thanks @swissspidy , turned WP_DEBUG on and I can see now what’s been excluded. I’ll go ahead and try also the 1.4.0-beta1, maybe it shakes the tree better ??

    Thanks again and best of luck with this awesome plugin!

    Excellent!

    Please let us know how 1.4.0 Beta works for you. We’ll be releasing a release candidate version hopefully soon.

    PS. We’re always happy about a nice plugin review ??

    @cosmins It would be helpful to list out the HTML comment that appears before the <style amp-custom>. That will detail how effective the CSS tree shaker is and what stylesheets are particularly problematic.

    The plugin will be improving the presentation of this information once this is resolved: https://github.com/ampproject/amp-wp/issues/2169
