    I just installed Autoptimize, went through the settings which were pretty straightforward… yet I’m getting worse scores or same scores from Page Speed Insights, Web.dev, and Pingdom.

    Maybe I need to wait a bit? I flushed my server cache. Should I be seeing improvements in performance score right away?

    Autoptimize _can_ help with scores, but that might require setting changes. Have a look at the “opportunities” and “diagnostics” of PageSpeed Insights for hints on what to improve, if you have no idea what to do with those feel free to share here and I’ll try guiding you ??

    Thank you for the quick response! My assumption is it’s something I could do better either with the settings or something else so thank you for the guidance.

    In response to your first recommendation, under Page Speed Insights, the Opportunities are:

    1. Eliminate render-blocking resources (1.13s)
    2. Remove unused JavaScript (.54s)
    3. Remove unused CSS (.16s)

    It looks like the majority of render-blocking resources are css related and just a couple JS related at the bottom of the list.

    Here are the JS settings I have checked:
    -Optimize JS Code
    -Aggregate JS-files

    The excluded scripts I left in what was there by default, maybe I should test with no excluded scripts?

    Here are the CSS settings I have checked:
    -Optimize CSS Code
    -Aggregate CSS-files
    -Aggregate inline CSS

    Again, the excluded scripts I left in what was there by default, maybe I should test with no excluded scripts?

    Thanks in advance

    Well, as a first step for the render-blocking CSS look into “inline & defer” (more info in the AO FAQ) maybe?
