Title: Preload issues Last modified: August 20, 2019 --- # Preload issues * Resolved [john9999](https://wordpress.org/support/users/john9999/) * (@john9999) * [6 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/preload-issues/) * Hi there, * using the preload feature I cannot fix the preload issues. * Pagespeed reports the below file to preload: * /wp-content/plugins/revslider/public/assets/fonts/revicons/revicons.woff?5510888 * I added it in the both window Google and Local. Once a time. And the both together. Without success. * [https://bit.ly/2z8KZUJ](https://bit.ly/2z8KZUJ) * Any thought? * Thanks * John * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fpreload-issues%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) * Plugin Author [Gabe Livan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gabelivan/) * (@gabelivan) * [6 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/preload-issues/#post-11852550) * [@john9999](https://wordpress.org/support/users/john9999/) from the errors printed there, the only one noticeable related to “_revicons.woff_” is “_Warnings: Lighthouse was unable to automatically check the font-display value for the following URL: [https://meltini-10c95.kxcdn.com/wp-content/plugins/revslider/public/assets/fonts/revicons/revicons.woff?5510888](https://meltini-10c95.kxcdn.com/wp-content/plugins/revslider/public/assets/fonts/revicons/revicons.woff?5510888)_“. That’s not related to the preload which from what I’ve seen it works fine. * The thing is you’re preloading it without needing it to load later in the page. Chrome returns the following notice: _The resource __[https://meltini-10c95.kxcdn.com/wp-content/plugins/revslider/public/assets/fonts/revicons/revicons.woff?5510888](https://meltini-10c95.kxcdn.com/wp-content/plugins/revslider/public/assets/fonts/revicons/revicons.woff?5510888)_ was preloaded using link preload but not used within a few seconds from the window’s load event. Please make sure it has an appropriate `as` value and it is preloaded intentionally. * You’re using Auoptimize to optimize CSS files. I’ve checked the code and you preloaded the font file stored on the CDN ([https://meltini-10c95.kxcdn.com/](https://meltini-10c95.kxcdn.com/)). However, the CSS loads the one from _[https://meltini.com/wp-content/plugins/revslider/public/assets/css/](https://meltini.com/wp-content/plugins/revslider/public/assets/css/)../ fonts/revicons/revicons.woff?5510888_ – this is obvious from the code located in _/wp-content/cache/autoptimize/css/autoptimize\_1801915a7c5985545c117ec4f1dc820d. css_ * Either Revolution Slider (I don’t have the latest version, but I will get it as plenty of users I’ve noticed use the plugin together with Asset CleanUp) or Autoptimize is hardcoding the location in the optimized CSS file. * Hope it helps and let me know if I can further assist you at your earliest convenience! * [Optimizing Matters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) * (@optimizingmatters) * [6 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/preload-issues/#post-11852711) * pro-tip; you can disable Autoptimize on a per-request basis by adding `?ao_noptimize =1` to the URL. * hope this helps debugging, frank (ao dev) * Plugin Author [Gabe Livan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gabelivan/) * (@gabelivan) * [6 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/preload-issues/#post-11852759) * [@optimizingmatters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) yes, it does help, thanks for the tip! You can also use `?wpacu_no_load` to disable Asset CleanUp in case you ever need it. * [@john9999](https://wordpress.org/support/users/john9999/) Can you exclude /wp- content/plugins/revslider/public/assets/css/settings.css from being optimized in Autoptimize? The file is already minified (no need to use extra CPU and space on your disk) and it has relative URLs (containing ../) to its fonts. * [Optimizing Matters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) * (@optimizingmatters) * [6 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/preload-issues/#post-11852782) * good to know, thanks for sharing Gabe! 🙂 * [johnstan3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnstan3/) * (@johnstan3) * [6 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/preload-issues/#post-11852874) * Still John, thank you very much for all the answers. I will check it out. * [johnstan3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnstan3/) * (@johnstan3) * [6 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/preload-issues/#post-11853698) * Hi there, * thanks again for the answers. I’m still trying to fix the issues. * [@gabelivan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gabelivan/) – in the file manager I do not see any file named /wp-content/cache/autoptimize/css/autoptimize_1801915a7c5985545c117ec4f1dc820d. css so you think is it still there the issue? Finally, it’s not that obvious to me 🙂 why should be that exact file instead of the other files listed in the AO cache? * [@optimizingmatters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) – where is it supposed to add ?ao_noptimize=1 , in the name of the file? (in the file manager) ex. autoptimize_54acd7d1b5c2d4fb0e736d25d270202b?ao_noptimize=1. css * thank you for your help and for the wornderful plugins * [Optimizing Matters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) * (@optimizingmatters) * [6 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/preload-issues/#post-11853843) * > where is it supposed to add ?ao_noptimize=1 * you can add that to your site’s URL in your browser’s address bar to disable AO for that request. * [johnstan3](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnstan3/) * (@johnstan3) * [6 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/preload-issues/#post-11853922) * [@optimizingmatters](https://wordpress.org/support/users/optimizingmatters/) thank you. I misunderstood the meaning of that option. I see without AO is much worse. But I still see some fonts causing issues. It seems excluding .woff?5510888 helped a little bit But excluding .woff?23391439 didn’t help at all * [ma7amdieno](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ma7amdieno/) * (@ma7amdieno) * [6 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/preload-issues/#post-12318189) * i have the same problem and i didn’t know how to “?wpacu_no_load”. or where i can add this code. * [mohsinkhan92](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mohsinkhan92/) * (@mohsinkhan92) * [6 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/preload-issues/#post-12604461) * i have same issue can u please help me [https://www.qatartowingservice.com](https://www.qatartowingservice.com) * [https://qatartowingservice.com/wp-content/plugins/revslider/public/assets/fonts/revicons/revicons.woff?5510888](https://qatartowingservice.com/wp-content/plugins/revslider/public/assets/fonts/revicons/revicons.woff?5510888) Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) The topic ‘Preload issues’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/wp-asset-clean-up/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=1981952) * [Asset CleanUp: Page Speed Booster](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-asset-clean-up/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-asset-clean-up/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-asset-clean-up/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-asset-clean-up/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-asset-clean-up/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-asset-clean-up/reviews/) ## Tags * [asset cleanup](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/asset-cleanup/) * [preload](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/preload/) * 10 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [mohsinkhan92](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mohsinkhan92/) * Last activity: [6 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/preload-issues/#post-12604461) * Status: resolved
