Manually Entered Scripts Fail to Minify

Manually entering JS or CSS to be minified and removing the query string fails.

Entering the following into Manual Minify JS:
wp-content/plugins/revslider/rs-plugin/js/jquery.themepunch.revolution.min.js

Still reports as blocking by PageSpeed Insights and GTmetrix tests, even though “Embed before </body>” is selected with “Combine Only/Defer” All other .min.js scripts before </body> are deferred and have their query strings removed properly.

In addition, both Page Speed Insights and GTMetrix also indicate the query string remains:
wp-content/plugins/revslider/rs-plugin/js/jquery.themepunch.revolution.min.js?rev=4.6.0&ver=4.0.1

* All .min.js scripts entered via the wizard and placed “Embed before </body>” for the purpose of removing the query string. The above script was originally minified when entered via the wizard, but was subsequently deleted, then manually re-entered during testing.

Oddly enough, if you re-run the HELP wizard the files are correctly minified.

However, the wizard interface is confusing on re-run as some files are checked some are not, and it reorders all the scripts, which after massaging to get just right so as not to break the site is a bit of a pain.

Thus, the problem is amplified when adding additional plugins/scripts following the initial run of the wizard when it would make sense to simply add the script manually.

Hope the above is not too confusing. Thank you for the great plugin.
