  • Plugin's Concatenate JavaScript Function Interferes with WP Visual Editor

    When the plugin's Concatenate JavaScript function is checked, it will interfere with WP's visual editor. Rendering the visual editor invisible. Disabling this function will enable you to use the WP Visual Editor again.

  • Simple and effective

    Without mentioning the need for CDN, Cache, …, Page Optimize (for aggregating CSS) with Jetpack Boost (for deferring JS) gave me the best results for free. It does the job in simple way. I summarize my experience with this plugin and similars on: https://mohamadkarbi.com/why-i-host-with-wordpress/
