What should I be seeing?

    I am testing FVM. It looks promising.

    I can see from the FVM status page that it is processing my .js and .css files as expected and producing files .min.css etc. The log shows what .css files have been included, including for example my theme css and child theme css.

    If I examine a visited page using a web inspector in Safari, I see the individual css files as elements, i.e. both my them css and child theme css are shown separately.

    Is this how it works – that the combined file is unpacked to recreate the separate ones or should I be seeing just the combined files? Please forgive my ignorance if this should be obvious.

    By the way, I am not using server caching – only browser caching and I cleared the browser cache before the above tests.

    Hello,

    We have some faqs here:
    https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/fast-velocity-minify/faq/

    You will only be able to see it working on the source code, if you are logged out.
    When you are logged in, the plugin takes no effect on the site for compatibility reasons with frontend page editors.

    If you don’t have any page editor, then you can disable the “fix page editors” option and it will work for logged in users as well.

    Thank you @alignak for your prompt and clear response. I now see what I was expecting when logged out.

    I have disabled “fix page editors” on my test site and am seeing the combined css etc when logged in too.

    I am unclear what/why front end page editors will have problems. My site uses BuddyPress and BBPress which provide for editing o profiles and forum topics and their replies from the front end but I don’t think this what you are talking about with page editors. A quick test indicates bbPress works OK. Can you clarify what it is that front end page editors do that is problematic?
