It looks like your CSS and JS files are corrupt. Are you minifying them? If so try turning off minify and see if that fixes your issue. Then try minifying one at a time and see which of them break.

Hi
The page speed is down to 75 again now :@ If they are corrupt how come, cant i reinstall them?
thanks
I’m not saying your files are corrupt, but something happened when you minified them. You’ll need to investigate how or why it’s happening.
So try to minify one file, or set, at a time. I would maybe start with minifying all of your CSS files. See if the site works and then add all of your JS files. If something breaks with the JS files, then only do one at a time until your figure out which one or ones are causing the problem.
In addition I would turn off HTML minify settings until you have investigated your JS and CSS files.
Remember to clear your caches after each time you save the settings.
Also check your HTML code. I see this below, which could be causing some problems. I would remove that <style type=”text/css”> </style> since there is nothing in there expect some weird body{}. Which could be cuasing some problems.
<style type="text/css">
body{}
</style>

Hi
Ive found out which one was causing the issue: wp-content/themes/iblogpro/style.css
so i uncheck the box apply and close then when i check the help wizard again the box has checked itself? it does it everytime i try this. If possible id like to just uncheck the trouble causer and check all the others to increase my page load speed
Ive not deleted the html yet until ive done this?
The help wizard only shows you what files you might want to add. It doesn’t automatically add them for you. The files that have been added are on the Minify Settings page below the Help wizard button. In the JS and CSS sections.
Find the file, in your case the iblogpro style.css and click delete beside it under the CSS minify settings — if it’s there.

ive done that but now my feature slide is not working and i reckon other things might not work properly either.
Its a great plug in if i can get by these issues? I know page speed isnt everything but it all adds up
thanks again
It’s not the plugin that is causing the problem. It’s most likely due to bad coding practices or putting files in the wrong area (i.e. JS in the head or below body).
Are you minifying all of your JS files? See if one of those is causing the problem with your feature slide not working correctly. Are you trying to use all the features of minify? Like space removal and comment removal? If so try to minify your files without those settings first and see if that helps. Sometimes remoing spaces can cause your files to break if they are not written properly.
If you find the file in question. Ask the developer of the plugin to take a look at it.

Hi
The guy who designed the template just told me not to minify the JS or CSS
and yes that was what was making the feature not work- you can tell im a noob!!
So ill see what he says and may need to look for other ways to speed the site up : (
That speed of 97 was damn good
Thanks for your help, i do appreciate it
Garry
Glad it worked out. Great job @kfawcett!
