OK, so when AO CSS optimization is active, what CSS-specific options are you using?
excluded css: -wp-content/cache/, wp-content/uploads/, admin-bar.min.css, dashicons.min.css
& the other settings are-
Optimize CSS Code?
Aggregate CSS-files?
Aggregate all linked CSS-files? If this option is off, the individual CSS-files will remain in place but will be minified.
Also aggregate inline CSS?
Check this option for Autoptimize to also aggregate CSS in the HTML.
Generate data: URIs for images?
Enable this to include small background-images in the CSS itself instead of as separate downloads.
this 4 options are enabled, rest are un checked
OK, can you try the following;
* disable google font optimization in AO -> do thumbnails show in whatsapp?
* disable CSS optimization -> do thumbnails show in whatsapp?
* disable CSS aggregation -> do thumbnails show in whatsapp?
tried as you stated, but it is not working
hmm .. what happens if you disable CSS optimization entirely? or JS or HTML or image lazyload?
The issue is with the html optimization…. what should I do? Tried keep html comments, but didn’t solve.. The problem solved only when html optimization is turned off…. Please help
Sorry for the fast reply, I should have double checked it, the issue is with both js and html…. If js and html is enabled without aggregrate js and other options, then it wont work, css is not causing the issue here, but both js and html, turning off either one will not solve the issue, both js and html needs to be turned off to show the thumbnails…. solve the issue please
OK, keep HTML opt. off for now (it’s the least important of the bunch) and let’s focus on the JS one.
So what happens if:
* you exclude wp-content/themes
* you exclude wp-content/plugins instead
* you exclude wp-includes instead
Sorry for the puzzled info, turned out the problem was with html only, yesterday while testing, due to mishandling in w3, cache was not cleared while trying with js, today thumbnails are showing even if js is enabled, They doesn’t show only iff html is enabled… What should be done?
I would simply leave HTML opt. off, it’s by far the least important optimization 🙂
