 * Hello,
 * I use Autoptimize and WP Rocket together, works great. But if I use the option,
   in WP Rocket, to remove querystrings from static files, the javascript files 
   seal.js, js/jquery/jquery.js won’t be excluded from optimalization in Autoptimize.
   The option ‘Remove querystrings’ is important to me for two reasons:
    1. (little)
   better performance 2. a lot of hackingtools use the querystrings to find installed
   plugins and themes, this doesn’t work anymore with this option switched on.
 * Autoptimize: 2.2.2
    WP Rocket: 2.10.6
 * Regards,
    Andries

 * Morgend Andries;
    with that option wp rocket moves e.g. jquery from `wp-includes/
   js/jquery/jquery.js?ver=1.12.4` to `wp-content/cache/busting/1/wordpress-wp-includes-
   js-jquery-jquery-1.12.4.js`, so you’ll have to adjust AO’s exclusions to match
   those files Andries.
 * Hope this helps,
    frank

 * Hello Frank,
 * You’re right, but then I’ve to check all my sites everytime the jquery version
   changes.
