How to remove HTTP calls we're (don't think) not using

[mhote]

Hi, how can we:)

a) disable / remove (what seem to be) theme http calls we’re not using … ie.

http://hoteliyo.com/wp-content/themes/uplift/js/combine/ilightbox.min.js
http://hoteliyo.com/wp-content/themes/uplift/js/combine/jquery.infinitescroll.min.js
http://hoteliyo.com/wp-content/themes/uplift/js/combine/jquery.panzoom.min.js

b) disable / remove http calls on front end ie. website.com, when they’re maybe related to admin functions ?

Thanks!

Hi,
Please go to Admin > Theme Options > General Options > Performance Options > Enable the smart script.
Thanks
Mohammad

Thanks Mohammad. But we have that ON already, and they’re still showing

I would not recommend you remove those, just improve the way the assets are loaded:

1) The Autoptimize plugin is great to further minify your assets: https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/autoptimize/.

2) Have you considered server your resources from a CDN such as MaxCDN?

3) You could test this plugin also to defer your JS loading, however depending on how agressivly it does this with the minification it could break some site elements: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-deferred-javascripts/.

4) Ask your host to enable gzip compression.

5) Install the WP Super Cache plugin.

Thanks.

Thanks David. This combined with Cloudflare, other optimisations etc is really helping!

Trying to further optimise once and for all.

1) We’ve removed query strings from static resources with the code below

/*** Remove Query String from Static Resources ***/
function remove_cssjs_ver( $src ) {
 if( strpos( $src, '?ver=' ) )
 $src = remove_query_arg( 'ver', $src );
 return $src;
}
add_filter( 'style_loader_src', 'remove_cssjs_ver', 10, 2 );
add_filter( 'script_loader_src', 'remove_cssjs_ver', 10, 2 );

But this isn’t removing it from:

https://hoteliyo.com/wp-content/themes/uplift/css/font/fontawesome-webfont.woff2?v=4.6.3
https://hoteliyo.com/wp-content/themes/uplift/css/font/nucleo-general.ttf?ferlac
https://hoteliyo.com/wp-content/themes/uplift/css/font/nucleo-interface.ttf?nucelov10

How can we remove that from these theme files?

Are you sure that is not cached?

Have you purged Cloudflare and the actual plugin cache?
