 * Good Morning,
 * I would like to enable the css and javascript minification on my site but when
   I do, the avada slider on my home page [https://naturalwonderjewellery.co.uk](https://naturalwonderjewellery.co.uk)
   and the main product page stops loading [https://naturalwonderjewellery.co.uk/silver-handmade-jewellery/](https://naturalwonderjewellery.co.uk/silver-handmade-jewellery/).
   Would you be able to advise on how to exclude those please so that the minification
   can be enabled? FYI, I’m not an IT person, just a small business owner.
 * Thanks
 * Emma

 * Just to confirm, have you already excluded the JavaScript files or adjusted any
   settings? I noticed that the `fusion-scripts.js` file (found [here](https://naturalwonderjewellery.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/fusion-scripts/2f3a9e58baa2c7654b5dd680f8f90a96.min.js))
   is still being optimized. The slider appears to be working smoothly on my end.
   Are you still encountering any issues on your side? If possible, could you please
   share a screenshot so I can help you further investigate?

 * HI, thanks so much for looking into this issue for me.
 * I do have the CSS enabled and JS disabled currently but SEMrush report both aren’t
   compressing anything.
 * I also use SEOptimer for an audit and that also reports 0% compressed.
 * I have been unable to add screenshots here for you to view?

 * Hi,
 * Thanks for the tip for sharing screenshots.
 * As you can see I have CSS enabled but when completing an audit on SEMrush and
   Seoptimer both report 0% compressed. I haven’t got Javascript enabled currently,
   as when I do, the Avada slider on my home page stops loading and the main product
   page stops too.
 * Please let me know if you need any further information to diagnose the issue.
 * Thanks

 * Your site supports http2 so you should not have merging enabled for JS or CSS
 * I would see if its’s the merging or the minifying that is causing the issue for
   JS, if it’s the merging you don’t need this anyhow.
 * The compression bit refers to website Compression tools (Gzip, Deflate, Brotli)
   that are available on your server. I would recommend you enable these tools (
   you can enable some or all of them). If you are not sure how to do this, you 
   can ask your hosts.
