Title: Defer CSS loading Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # Defer CSS loading * Resolved [ben52](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ben52/) * (@ben52) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/defer-css-loading/) * Good morning Futta, good plugin and good job you make, before i have installed better wordpress minify with super cache, but always i face problem with minify * i try your plugin new version 1.8 and it’s work very good, only i can not defer the css, because the nav bar goes down and the header up for a wile only when i reload. I presume that the best combinations is: wp super cache + autoptimize * here is my site if you have any suggestion : [http://www.forzacatania46.com](http://www.forzacatania46.com) Thank you again Ben * [http://wordpress.org/plugins/autoptimize/](http://wordpress.org/plugins/autoptimize/) Viewing 11 replies - 1 through 11 (of 11 total) * Plugin Author [Frank Goossens](https://wordpress.org/support/users/futtta/) * (@futtta) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/defer-css-loading/#post-4534113) * Hi ben52; Deferring CSS indeed is not a simple “configure and forget”-solution, but requires one to extract “base CSS” and inline it in the head (between noptimize- tags) as explained [in the FAQ](http://wordpress.org/plugins/autoptimize/faq/). In 1.9 this will probably become (slightly) easier (not the “extract base CSS”- part, but the inlining. * frank * Thread Starter [ben52](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ben52/) * (@ben52) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/defer-css-loading/#post-4534118) * Thanks Frank, i will let the option defer unchecked, until your new version 1.9 i need to defer, because in gtmetrix i getting only 55 on defer js have a good day. * Plugin Author [Frank Goossens](https://wordpress.org/support/users/futtta/) * (@futtta) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/defer-css-loading/#post-4534122) * I’m slightly confused, as the topic was defer CSS, not JS. * Anyway; Aggregated & minified JS is deferred by default, except if you “force JS in head” or if you exclude certain JS from being optimized; * Thread Starter [ben52](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ben52/) * (@ben52) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/defer-css-loading/#post-4534139) * I got it frank. i unchecked force JS in head now from 55 drop to 88 Thanks Ben * Plugin Author [Frank Goossens](https://wordpress.org/support/users/futtta/) * (@futtta) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/defer-css-loading/#post-4534140) * great! make sure to test your site though; some JavaScript (esp. jQuery-stuff) does not like to be deferred. * Thread Starter [ben52](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ben52/) * (@ben52) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/defer-css-loading/#post-4534156) * i have now problem only with the plugin scroll to top i dont know which js i will esclude: jcwp-scroll-to-top JCUCNMobile_Detect jcScrollTop.min any help will be appreciate Thanks * Plugin Author [Frank Goossens](https://wordpress.org/support/users/futtta/) * (@futtta) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/defer-css-loading/#post-4534157) * trial and error is your friend. I would start excluding “jcwp-scroll-to-top, jcScrollTop.min” and see if that works. If these rely on jQuery, you might also have to exclude that. * Thread Starter [ben52](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ben52/) * (@ben52) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/defer-css-loading/#post-4534221) * Hi Frank, in my site i use wp super cache + your excellent plugin in my cloudflare there is an option in performance sitting to Auto Minify (Web optimization) js, css, html can i use this or it will make a conflict with autoptimize same question for the option : Rocket Loader (Web optimization) Thanks Ben * Plugin Author [Frank Goossens](https://wordpress.org/support/users/futtta/) * (@futtta) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/defer-css-loading/#post-4534223) * well, autoptimize does just that, so the correct thing to do would be to pick your favorite. * maybe do some tests comparing performance with and without autoptimize vs cloudflare auto minify and tell us here what the results are, will you? 🙂 * Thread Starter [ben52](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ben52/) * (@ben52) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/defer-css-loading/#post-4534224) * Hi Frank, * only autoptimize Page load time: 3.03s * autoptimize + cloudflare Page load time: 3.47s * only cloudflare: Page load time: 3.18s * Yours is better * Plugin Author [Frank Goossens](https://wordpress.org/support/users/futtta/) * (@futtta) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/defer-css-loading/#post-4534225) * that’s great, thanks for the feedback ben52!
