 * Hi Team,
 * I’m getting a message to “Eliminate external render-blocking Javascript and CSS
   in above-the-fold content” while checking performance of my `dogwithblog.in`
 * How can I achieve this with wordpress with W3TC? If there is no other way than
   using a plugin, which one is the easier option, given that I’m not that well 
   equipped with coding schema.
 * Thanks,
    Abhishek

 * Hello Abhishek,
    You have to identify the JavaScript and CSS files before eliminating
   them. The best way to make changes like this to a theme is to use a child theme,
   so your tweaks won’t be overwritten when updating the theme. Here are some guides
   in case you haven’t made one before:

   Let me know how it works.
