Menu showing until refresh. A script and style sheet cache not loaded

Hi, I’m not a web developer but trying my best to fix my own website.

I am getting a bare menu loading on my pages (especially in firefox and IE), which disappears once people have clicked “Skip to content” or refreshed.

I noticed when running a “mobile friendly test” on google, that two autoptimize cache are not loading (a script and a style sheet).

Firstly, I wonder whether these are related.
And secondly, I wonder how I can fix these.

I have tried clearing all cache using autoptimize, my cache enabler plugin and worspress itself. No luck. Then I disabled autoptimize and cache enabler and also no luck.

What else could I try?

The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

hey didititian;
the page did not need refreshing, the menu was visible automatically after a split second. to ensure the split second thing does not happen either disable the “inline & defer CSS” option OR better still add “above the fold CSS” to ensure the page can be styled even before the full CSS loads.

hope this helps,
frank

Thank you for your reply. So it works fine without refresh for most users, but some do have this issue. Inline and defer is disabled since yesterday and all cache purged again after.

The Google Mobile Friendly test still shows the same issue that some of my clients are getting.

In the HTML code I still saw the code that “inline & defer CSS” adds, so all of this seems to indicate (extra) page caching at some level that needs a good purge?

Hmmm, I have tried the following cache purging options:

I tried clearing cache via autoptimize settings, via the autoptimize desktop header, the cache enabler header (for both this page and site-wide) and then when all caching plugins were deleted, for the wordpress caching page and site.

My hosting (hostgator) does not offer cache as far as I’m aware.

Do you know of any other cache purging options I could try?

I checked again and the HTML source now doesn’t have indications of “inline & defer CSS” any more. I do however still see the HTML comment to indicate Cache Enabler is active;
```
</body></html>
```
Re. Mobile Friendly; in the test I just did there is an image that can’t be loaded, but the CSS & JS seem OK:

Hi again, yes thanks for checking. I found another caching plugin, endurance page cache, that was a hidden plugin from my host. I deactivated that and the issue appears to have resolved.
