Hi @proguid,
Greetings.

Sure, take your time to test it, and please let us know the update.

Looking forward to hearing back from you.
Thanks!

Styles are still loaded on all pages:

Call admin-ajax.php. On high traffic pages/sites this will be a problem. Earlier I tested a plugin that also called admin-ajax.php, as the number of plugins and traffic increased the call took too long.

Superfluous scripts on the preview page:

Large number of files, if possible reduce the number of files.

Great job, but there’s more work to do

Hi proguid,

Greetings.

Thanks for letting us know your feedback. Your query has been forwarded to the DEV team again for further investigation.

Best regards!

Hi?proguid,
Greetings.

We’ve checked it with our DEV team.

Regarding your query : Styles are still loaded on all pages:
>These are global CSS styles and will appear once you have installed and activated the plugin.


Regarding your query : Call admin-ajax.php. On high traffic pages/sites this will be a problem. Earlier I tested a plugin that also called admin-ajax.php, as the number of plugins and traffic increased the call took too long:
>We’ve used those files for security/XSS reasons.

Regarding your query : Superfluous scripts on the preview page:
> With EmbedPress, you can embed over 150 different sources, not limited to just PDF embedding. Some files are loaded directly from WordPress, while others are required for utilizing the EmbedPress feature.

Regarding your query: Large number of files, if possible reduce the number of files:
> These files are essential for embedding PDFs.

However, our development team is working to enhance the performance of EmbedPress. Hopefully, we will improve the feature and incorporate your suggestions gradually in the upcoming releases.

Hope you understand.
Thanks!

I’ll run a couple more texts, maybe test on another site where traffic is high. Security is good, but a lot of overhead.
So far I have a choice between two plugins. The second: https://wp-pdf.com/free-instructions/. It’s lighter and faster, but the authors are rewriting it and there will be changes.

I need a simple and fast plugin that will insert pdf files into a page. I hope you can make a fast plugin.
The less requests to third party resources – the better.

What are these files for?

Why ads.js? That can’t be turned off in the plugin.
I, as a user, should be able to change whatever I want – that’s the rule of good coding.

Hi?proguid,
Greetings.

As we’ve mentioned previously, the EmbedPress plugin is not limited to embedding PDFs; it can be utilized to embed over 150+ different types of resources. This necessitates additional files to load and ensure that every feature functions smoothly. However, we sincerely appreciate your feedback. We will forward your query to the team for further investigation and improvements. Your input is truly valued.

Best regards!

For now, I will observe your project and occasionally test it.
What I do know is this:

• The plugin should be fast and not slow down the site (global css, which I’ve seen only from you and loading of third-party api)
• if I chose only pdf files, I don’t need the functionality of other plugins, because I didn’t choose them
• plugin should load only necessary files (styles, js)

Good luck with your project!
P.S. Universal plugins lose to specialized ones. This is just my experience.

Hi?proguid,

Thank you for your feedback and for observing our plugin.

We’re committed to optimizing the plugin for speed and efficiency, ensuring it only loads necessary files. We understand your point about specialized plugins and appreciate your input. Feel free to reach out if you have any further questions or observations.
