So you could now add `googlesitekit` to the exclusions in the JavaScript settings. * If you do not want do disable merging of JS, you can try enabling ” Contain each included file in its own block”. If the error still happens, it might be more accurate and display the name of the original file. * You can then add that file to the exclusion list. * If none of this works, you can send your details using this form: [https://getwpo.com/ask-pre-sales-question/](https://getwpo.com/ask-pre-sales-question/) and mentioning my name. * Marc * Thread Starter [purityboy83](https://wordpress.org/support/users/purityboy83/) * (@purityboy83) * [5 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/syntaxerror-unexpected-identifier-3/#post-14067389) * Hi first, Thank you for your help * 1. exclude googlesitekit js and enable merge js Any JavaScript files that match the paths below will be completely ignored wpo-minify-footer-googlesitekit-modules- tagmanager.min.js wpo-minify-footer-googlesitekit-modules-analytics.min.js wpo- minify-footer-googlesitekit-modules-adsense.min.js /core/cache/wpo-minify/1613579635/ assets/wpo-minify-footer-googlesitekit-modules-adsense.min.js /core/cache/wpo- minify/1613579635/assets/wpo-minify-footer-googlesitekit-modules-tagmanager.min. js /core/cache/wpo-minify/1613579635/assets/wpo-minify-footer-googlesitekit-modules- analytics.min.js /core/cache/wpo-minify/1613639244/assets/wpo-minify-footer-308f22ce. min.js * => occur error * 2.
