Title: CSS and Java not being combined/minified Last modified: February 22, 2019 --- # CSS and Java not being combined/minified * Resolved [geekworkshopltd](https://wordpress.org/support/users/geekworkshopltd/) * (@geekworkshopltd) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-and-java-not-being-combined-minified/) * Hello! * Dear author 😀 * Would you kindly give me a hand please? For some reason I cannot find out – AO isn’t combining css and javascripts anymore 🙁 No matter what options I use the total amount of requests is always the same! * Weird thing though, if I use wp rocket minification – same thing happens, files are not combined. * I would highly appreciate your help!!! * [Website](https://www.geekworkshop.ca) * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcss-and-java-not-being-combined-minified%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 12 replies - 1 through 12 (of 12 total) * [thewebdeveloperllc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/zach21uk/) * (@zach21uk) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-and-java-not-being-combined-minified/#post-11237202) * WP Rocket does not typically combine files very well. Do you have the “Aggregate all linked CSS-files?” option selected in your Autoptimize options? There is a similar option for the JS. Make sure you have Advanced Settings turned on. * —- Zach Nicodemous.

I do remember some time ago when I was checking the speed – I would have like 60-70 requests only, now it’s 200+ lmao * Thank you! * Plugin Author [Optimizing Matters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) * (@optimizingmatters) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-and-java-not-being-combined-minified/#post-11237240) * Most likely a plugin conflict of some sort, can you try disabling/ enabling plugins one at a time (and briefly switch themes) to find out which one is causing this? * Thread Starter [geekworkshopltd](https://wordpress.org/support/users/geekworkshopltd/) * (@geekworkshopltd) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-and-java-not-being-combined-minified/#post-11237267) * OMG * Absolutely right o_O * It’s the Groovy Menu plugin that doesn’t want to work with AO 🙁 I disabled it and got my 55 requests back LOL * Now gotta figure out how to fix it heh. * Plugin Author [Optimizing Matters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) * (@optimizingmatters) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-and-java-not-being-combined-minified/#post-11237276) * I’d have a good talk with the Groovy Menu developers/ support if I were you 😉 * Thread Starter [geekworkshopltd](https://wordpress.org/support/users/geekworkshopltd/) * (@geekworkshopltd) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-and-java-not-being-combined-minified/#post-11237283) * Uh oh! * Maybe I can exclude it completely from AO? Or it doesn’t work that way 😀 ? * Sorry, I’m a noob in programming in general. * Plugin Author [Optimizing Matters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) * (@optimizingmatters) * [7 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/css-and-java-not-being-combined-minified/#post-11237357) * As AO doesn’t seem to work at all when Groovy Menu is active, it is _very_ unlikely that excluding Groovy Menu from optimization will make any difference ..
