Many thanks. AMP did give my mobile PageSpeed a bump up but not a sufficient bump up to get me from low 60s to 90+

I’ve now reverted to NOT using AMP on BajanThings.

More work is needed at my end to get the BajanThings mobile pages to load faster.

Part of the problem is one of Google giving with one hand and taking away with the other.

I can bump up the mobile PageSpeed score – but don’t really want to remove Google Analytics or Google AdSense just yet. Google Analytics and Google AdSense doesn’t impact desktop PageSpeed but it does trash my mobile PageSpeed scores.

Back to the drawing board. BajanThings is only a hobby site – this issue of mobile PageSpeed scores must be really hurting commercial sites.

I am still looking for the magic mobile solution 😉

Thanks

PB

Thanks for the heads up I was looking for that but hadn’t found it. I will give that a go tonight.

Been looking to see how I can get my mobile pagespeed score up to to 90 on mobile. Its in the mid 90s for desktop but can only get it to low 60s for mobile – I was able to bump it up but deactivated AMP as the forms did not work. I also have a 3 posts with searchable tables that are used by researchers that I will also decativate.

Will report back.

Many thanks

Bug

Hi Thomas

Thanks for the response

Yes I partially fixed by changing the “Specific CSS classes” link in FooBoox Pro to: .mgl-gallery, .mgl-caption, .mgl-tiles, .mgl-gallery, .tiled-gallery, .wp-block-gallery, .wp-caption, .container, .gallery

Unfortunately I’ve been unable to fix the other major issue which is that Meow Gallery combined with FooBox will only pick up the alt text not the caption text. On the test page you will notice I’ve added Caption: and Alt: to the caption so that you can see what is being picked up. In Meow Gallery if your mouse over the image you will see the caption is prefixed with Caption: If you click on the image which then displays it in FooBox you’ll see the caption is prfixed with Alt:

The other thing that would be great to fix in Meow Gallery is that if you add some HTLM into the caption say for a link – then the code displays. Here is an example

Caption: Pilot Officer Andrew Cole in the cockpit of a Lockheed Hudson over the Atlantic while at No. 31 Operational Training Unit, Debert, Nova Scotia, Canada – photograph taken by Sergeant Errol Barrow his navigator : See Andy Cole's book: The Beautiful Blonde in the Bank.


many thanks

Just as I was giving up it has started working.

Not sure what was done at the back end…. But it’s now working
