 * Hello I am trying to fix render blocking CSS recommendation from google page 
   speed.
 * <style>here goes critical path</style>
    <link rel=”preload” as=”style” media=”
   all” href=”wp-content/cache/autoptimize/css/autoptimize_fb3761d5ff1bb5dcb1bc273f35788f8e.
   css” onload=”this.rel=’stylesheet'” /> <noscript id=”aonoscrcss”> <link type=”
   text/css” media=”all” href=”wp-content/cache/autoptimize/css/autoptimize_fb3761d5ff1bb5dcb1bc273f35788f8e.
   css” rel=”stylesheet” /> </noscript>
 * I use Autoptimize for this purpose, so I inserted critical path and checked defer
   CSS. However google doesn’t count this as a fixed recommendation. From this code
   part, is there any issues that causing it, or it something else? Any hints on
   how to troubleshoot this issue?
 * And also google shows 2 blocking css files with the same name and url.

 * this is most likely a problem with the critical css you entered, google’s pretty
   particular about that. try generating is elsewhere or -if you’re into CSS somewhat-
   try tweaking it yourself.
 * hope this helps,
    frank
