Hello,
I am using a child theme. My technical knowledge is limited but I have done some caching and moved js code to the footer via a plugin today. Then I have optimized the images via another plugin. Now the page speed is fine but there appeared some gaps between the post excerpts on both blog page and on the home page.
My website is: http://www.evdeas.com
I would be grateful if you can help mme to see what I did wrong and how to correct it as these gap are bothering me so much.
Thanks.
You have only moved the linked scripts to the footer and left the inline scripts in the header. You need to remove the function
pinboard_call_scriptsfrom thewp_headhook and move it to thewp_footerhook. In functions.phpadd_action( 'wp_head', 'pinboard_call_scripts' );
replace with:
add_action( 'wp_footer', 'pinboard_call_scripts' );
Hello Daniel,
Thank you very much for your reply but it did not seem to be solving the problem. Could that be caused by something else please?
Many thanks again.
Hello again,
I have removed the plugin and that solved my problem. My page speed declined again and Google tells me to Remove Render-Blocking JavaScripts but I have no idea how to do that without a plug-in.
Would you be able to help? I hope I am not asking for too much.
Many thanks.
Try increasing the priority of the footer call:
add_action( 'wp_footer', 'pinboard_call_scripts', 30 );
Still no luck, I still have 8 render-blocking scripts but thanks for the effort. It is appreciated. I guess I will have to live with this page speed.
