Title: plugin not working or wrong set-up? Last modified: August 15, 2018 --- # plugin not working or wrong set-up? * Resolved [sonatulip](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sonatulip/) * (@sonatulip) * [7 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-not-working-or-wrong-set-up/) * Hello. I just installed this plugin. However, I dont know which settings must be set-up so the plugin would work properly. Because, right now, it doesnt. In settings, I enabled Async JavaScript, pushed “Apply defer” button and clicked defer on Async JavaScript Method and on jQuery. But GTmetrix still ask me to defer java script: [https://gtmetrix.com/reports/tulipize.sk/9WtIlLXo](https://gtmetrix.com/reports/tulipize.sk/9WtIlLXo) * There are 5 websites like this one, where I installed this plugin and non is ok when tested in GTmetrix. * What else should I do? Should I write all the scripts I need to defer to the “ Scripts to defer” collumn? I have no idea what to write there… Could you, please, help me? * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fplugin-not-working-or-wrong-set-up%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) * Plugin Author [Optimizing Matters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) * (@optimizingmatters) * [7 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-not-working-or-wrong-set-up/#post-10592354) * the 4 scripts GTMetrix are not loaded directly from your HTML, so AsyncJS can’t defer those. The first 3 ones are related to the youtube video, which you could fix by switching to “[WP YouTube Lyte](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-youtube-lyte)”( by yours truly). * The last one (hotjar) I’m not sure how it got there, could have been added by a plugin maybe? * Thread Starter [sonatulip](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sonatulip/) * (@sonatulip) * [7 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-not-working-or-wrong-set-up/#post-10592384) * Hi, thanks for the tip. Will install Youtube lyte plugin. Hotjar is not installed as a plugin, but via tracking code in tag manager. Dont know how to minimize that. If I install the plugin you mentioned but will not touch Hotjar, could this speed up my website? Or will GT metrix still bother me with bad speed results? 😀 * Plugin Author [Optimizing Matters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) * (@optimizingmatters) * [7 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-not-working-or-wrong-set-up/#post-10592398) * well, GTmetrix will still see one render-blocking JS-file (the hotjar-one), but your performance _will_ be better (as LYTE is lighter then an embedded YouTUbe) 🙂 * Thread Starter [sonatulip](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sonatulip/) * (@sonatulip) * [7 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-not-working-or-wrong-set-up/#post-10592684) * ok, thanks 🙂 I just installed LYTE, there are some things I dont understand, but will write the issues in LYTE support group.
