Why Autoptimize does not join-minify files in admin area?

it’s safer and admin area perf. has no impact on sales (conversion) or seo ??

It has an impact though in time spent in the admin area by the managers.

I did read in the code after trying to hack into the plugin that you only buffer the frontend requests.
So, as I believe it safer not to hack deeper, I wonder if there is a hook or an API call somewhere that I can use to join-minify the static files in the admin area that I consider safe to be joined.

Thanks for your answer in any case!

well, by default WordPress does join files in the admin area, see load-styles.php and load-scripts.php, but that does not work on all JS/ CSS. I did a quick search but have not found a way to add scripts/ styles to those, but maybe you’re more patient when searching? ??

I considered the same option but then I recalled that this is reported as a security matter by my hosting and suggests me to disable the scripts concatenation.

I am sure there is at least a non standard way I can achieve this with your plugin but I will not give high priority for now as I need to finish the project first.

Thank you very much.
P.S Great plugin!

yeah, read about that while researching this topic yesterday, see https://bjornjohansen.no/load-scripts-php. pretty low-risk security issue in my book though ..

well, if you’re not afraid of breaking things you could try removing the is_admin() check in autoptimizeMain.php on line 345? ??
