Upgrading to the premium plugin allows you to
unload unused styles & scripts on extra pages such as:
- Taxonomy pages such as default WordPress categories, tags, and custom created ones such as products’ categories from WooCommerce.
- Author pages (e.g. the page showing all posts published by a specific author, detected via is_author() function)
- Default WordPress Search Page
- WooCommmerce Search Page (which has the same settings as the actual shop page detected via is_shop() function)
- 404 Page (Not Found): this one has be as light as possible and it’s less likely that many of the CSS and JavaScript files that are needed here (detected via is_404() function)
- Date Archive Page: this is any page that retrieves articles filtered by the date, detected via is_date() function
As for the loaded JavaScript files, attributes such as
defer and
async can be applied
There are a plethora of techniques that are often used to defer parsing; however, the simple and preferred technique is to simply
Defer loading of JavaScript until it is needed. If this technique isn’t appropriate to use on your page, it is next suggested that you use the
<script async> attribute where appropriate, which prevents parsing from blocking the initial page load by deferring it until the browser’s UI thread is not busy doing something else. All these settings can be applied with Asset CleanUp Pro without writing any code.
Change the location of the CSS/JS files (could be moved from HEAD to BODY to prevent render-blocking or vice-versa if you need early triggering of specific files)
Unload CSS/JS that is hardcoded (not loaded via the standard WordPress functions such as wp_enqueue_scripts()). The LINK/STYLE/SCRIPT tags could have been added via editing the PHP code (not using the right WordPress action hooks), directly inside posts content, widgets, or via plugins such as “Insert Headers and Footers”, “Head, Footer and Post Injections”, etc.
Requires at least: 4.6
Tested up to: 6.3.1
Stable tag: 1.2.4.1
== Changelog ==
1.2.4.1 - 9 September 2023
* "Plugins Manager" - A new option was added to both "IN FRONTEND VIEW (your visitors)" and "IN THE DASHBOARD /wp-admin/" (in case it's activated, as it's a special feature) to disregard all rules from taking effect in case there are issues with any plugin rules for debugging purposes (any rules placed there will be kept as they are; this feature will just instruct Asset CleanUp Pro to not take them into consideration)
* Cache Clearing: Whenever the caching is cleared within any plugin page through the available links (from the top admin bar and the top right side of the plugin's area) a notification about the action is shown with a preloader until the cache is cleared (the page doesn't reload as the cache clearing is made in the background)
* If "Input Fields Style:" is set to "Standard" (for people having difficulties accessing the fancy input fields) within "Settings" -- "Plugin Usage Preferences" -- "Accessibility", the setting will also apply to jQuery Chosen drop-downs, turning them into regular HTML drop-downs (with either one or multiple options to choose from)
* "Settings" -- "Plugin Usage Preferences": Re-organised the tab contents from into multiple sub-tabs for easier access and understanding the options
