Got it thank you! I put it in the custom CSS area of the WPD form ??

Yeah I ended up ditching Astra. I was spending way too much time trying to make things look right

Thanks for the reply Herman. No idea how to replicate. What I noticed though is that Astra seemed to set many of my margins to zero. I had to fix it using custom css.

But the wp block editor doesn’t take notice of that. It seems to have it’s own styling. Please have a look at these screenshots

OK much appreciated, this looks promising but I struggle with the implementation. I’m not a coder but I am an engineer, and so I get the gist.

I’m more than happy to tip you for this –?just a little more info needed on ‘use the filter’ and how to call that function on the page

Ah that’s a shame, thanks though. This was the closest plugin to the solution so far. I mean, it is working but I really only need it to work for that one page. Sometimes the Ajax request can take more than half a second, so it’s probably a bit unnecessary to load it, right?

I did have a look in Ajax.php and on Line 111 it says: ‘Call this function if you want to register the JS script only for specific pages’

Is this anything to do with what I might need?

I’ve got this all working. I just had to check those two boxes. So now the only issue is I only want that Ajax call on the sales page, and not globally. Any advice for that? is it possible?

Oh thank you! this sounds great. So it’s just a matter of pasting in the provided frontend JS into the header or body of the page? I was put off thinking I had to write the JS myself.

Will this cause an issue with having to prompt the user to share they location though? Or will it all still happen in the background?

OK I’ve decided to still run WP-rocket but I’ve excluded the function that writes the Expire headers into the .htaccess file. I also disabled page caching

Things seem to work nicely like this

Thanks for your help

I agree with those things but, for example, why doens’t SG optimizer add any expire headers?

btw, I’m currently trying some things out now on that url so you won’t any accurate state of things.

I just noticed that nothing was added to my .htaccess file – for example gzip and expire headers. All i have is the basic:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

I’m getting a really low score on ‘Make fewer HTTP requests’ and also ‘Add Expires headers’ – nothing to do with the images.

So is that what you’d expect? do I need to toggle any caching functionality in order to refresh or activate it?

I really want SG to work for me.

Ok thanks. I have disabled wp-rocket and enabled all of SG optimiser’s features. Simply put, I’m not getting the same performance testing with Pingdom, GTmetrix and Google Pagespeed.

The CDN I’m using is Stackpath

If you can dig out my chat logs with pre sales support you will see that they said wprocket and sg-optimiser compliment each other and my site will run even better.

I mean, looking back now, that sounds a bit illogical.

Thank you for your replies here. I feel like you do know what you’re talking about. However, talking to support does not make me so confident.

I will do as you advise. One feature I do need is to enable my CDN. subdomain which WP-rocket previously handled. Can you advise here?

So this means it is now definitely not compatible with WP-rocket? Since WP-rocket always adds in the expires headers and this causes a MISS on the X cache.

The advice to prevent this is to disable GZIP and Browser caching in the SG Optimiser plugin. But these options don’t exist now and renders this combination of plugins incompatible, would you agree?

I really made a point of double checking about compatibility with WP-rocket before I handed the money over to SG. I was assured that they work great together and compliment each other. There’s no way this is true. How is this true? I’ve spent SO much time trying to figure this out. I have Spent so much time with support – advanced technical advisor and senior advisor. It is still not resolved.
