[Plugin: W3 Total Cache] Defer JavaScript Parsing

I too am interested in this “deferring” option (can’t find your e-mail address though).

Just one question: when I want to defer some js files, but not all and I still want to combine all the files and place them in the footer; will there be two combined js files?

Hi Frederik,
Could you email me the last release wih the defer option please.
Thanks.

When will the plugin get a standard update with the defer option? Or is that only given to people as an option?

Is there somewhere you can fetch this new version with defering option?

I would also love to test the w3tc with defering. Townes, could you provide a link so we won’t bother on your email?

Hi Frederick – love your work! Yes please if you have the time to email to me as well.. thank you so much for all your effort. Here’s a link to my website, that goes ok in PageSpeed – but deffering the js parsing will help some more…

Hi.

I was wondering if anyone ever got a copy of W3TC with javascript defer built in?

Thanks

Hi Frederick,

Is the upgrade to W3TC available yet ? I just installed your excellent plugin and it raised my speed on webpagetest from 66/100 to 77/100 in the first pass.

I have some issues with:
1. Leverage Browser Caching
2. Combine images into CSS sprites
3. Defer Parsing of Javascript

I understand the upgrade mentioned in this thread will address number 3 above, but one of the three JS files mentioned is https://……/wp-content/w3tc/min/a62d3/index.include.9fc1ab.js which looks like a w3tc JS. Does it make sense to defer parsing of this file ?

Could you please advise when the upgrade will be available, and can you give me any tips on items 1 and 2 above ?

Many thanks

Hello, waiting the solution by the plugin I propose you this solution :
https://wpengineer.com/2482/enqueue-bundled-jquery-in-footer/

This solution move the javascript files on the footer, so it’s not The solution for a good total parsing but that’s already a solution ??

For example on my website after this manipulation, GTMetrix is almost OK with me ??

All you have to do it’s :
-> go to wp-includes/script-loader.php
-> go to the bottom of the file and add the solution proposed by the author of the article :

replacing ‘add_action( ‘wp_default_scripts’…..’ line’s

by :

function ds_enqueue_jquery_in_footer( &$scripts ) {

if ( ! is_admin() )
$scripts->add_data( ‘jquery’, ‘group’, 1 );
}
add_action( ‘wp_default_scripts’, ‘ds_enqueue_jquery_in_footer’ );
