Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content

  • I am looking for a manual solution to this problem that seems to hammer my Page Speed score. I know I’m not alone! My own site is The Right Website, but I have this problem on every site I build.

    However, almost everything I’ve read on the forums suggests using W3 Total Cache, and I just don’t get along with it. The minifications options generally break something and I have been using Cloudflare’s free option with “Aggressive Caching” to good effect. My other option is WP Super Cache, but it’s not terribly configurable.

    Nothing seems to slay the Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content demon, though!

    Is there a manual way to do this? I have access to all backend files, as I host my own and others’ sites. Or a plugin that JUST does this, that plays well with WP Super Cache? I know this type of thread has been started many time, but I just can’t find my answer.

    Thanks in advance for any and all advice on the matter!

    You shouldn’t take over someone else’s thread just because your thread didn’t receive a response in the time you wanted.

    Render Blocking Scripts is not related to your page load time.

    Edit: Sorry for the tone.
