 * Hello, I discovered your plugin and it seems to be helping me out a lot but I
   am having problems with the “Optimize CSS Code” section (and it’s just not your
   plugin). Whenever I try to Optimize the css my whole site breaks leaving me with
   hardly any css at all! So I was wondering if somehow you could assist me with
   this and help me out. At the moment I have it disabled because I spent several
   hours trying tp figure it out but to no luck.

 * can you enable CSS optimization and then run a test on webpagetest.org and post
   the URL with the result here Hardwire? I should be able to better understand 
   what happens with that info to help you out.

 * ok, can you try adding `style.min.css` to the comma-separated list of CSS optimization
   exclusions?
