99 / 100Suggestions Summary
Consider Fixing:
Minify JavaScript
Minify JavaScript for the following resources to reduce their size by 4.4KiB (39% reduction).
Minifying http://www.xxxx.com/…t/themes/vantage/js/jquery.flexslider.js could save 4.4KiB (39% reduction) after compression.
relevant plugins
async, autoptimize, score booster, super minify, hypercache
(i tried other cache plugins but I get a better load and score with hyper)
********************
currently I am not using the slider. should i forgo trying to minify this? I have my layout etc the way I want. Later I may use the slider, but it is not vital at this point for me.
any ideas about this I would appreciate…

Hi oldasdirtuser
Apologies, I think I see the problem there. Let me follow up with the guys, I’ll report back as soon as I’m sure about what’s happening.
Thanks
Great! Not a pressing matter, so big rush . :)
Much appreciated.
oops .. NO big rush , sorry.
Thanks for reporting. This will be resolved in the next version. If you’d like to hotfix, head to Appearance > Editor, edit functions.php and remove the following section:
/** * Register all the bundled scripts */ function vantage_register_scripts(){ wp_register_script( 'flexslider' , get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/jquery.flexslider.js' , array('jquery'), '2.1' ); } add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'vantage_register_scripts' , 5);Even a really small mistake in functions.php can cause your site to not load so it’s best to backup functions.php via FTP first and have a copy of it handy.
I feel bad after you researched and designed a “hotfix”; but with the added note of your warning regarding functions.php, AND my relative novice status, I will await the update.
I’ll report resolution status after the next version allows flexslider minification.
Thanks Andrew!
If you hadn’t mentioned this it might have taken us a while to pick up on the duplication so we appreciate the feedback.
For sure, approximately 40k or so isn’t a huge deal. It’ll be nice to remove but won’t be a game changer. Waiting for the update is 100%.
Chat soon. Cheers.
