 * Thanks [@westonruter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/westonruter/).
 * I think this behavior is intentional to AMP (at least from my research this morning).
 * If you specify a `type` then it presumes you’re using a vendor definition and,
   when you’re using a vendor definition, the transport should be defined by the
   analytics vendor and not overridden by the publisher.
 * It would be possible, for example, for a vendor to only support GET requests,
   and then a publisher attempts to override that with a transport method that uses
   POST request and now thing are broken, hence the error. (Honestly I think it 
   should be a warning and not an error, but, hey, the internet exists for opinions,
   right? 🙂
 * With `type` absent, it knows you’re not using a vendor definition and `transport`
   is an acceptable thing to define.

 * For example, this code works 100% fine, and tracks 100% fine, except the plugin
   is adding that `type` field (as above) which throws the error.
 *     ```
       {
           "triggers": {
               "trackPageview": {
                   "on": "visible",
                   "request": "pageview"
               }
           },
           "transport": {
           	"beacon": false,
           	"xhrpost": false,
           	"image": true

 * For anyone driving by, we solved this simply went to Dashboard > Performance 
   > Minify > Advanced > Never minify the following pages and put /amp/ in there.
   That seems to have done it.

 * Ahh, gotchya. THanks, [@vmarko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vmarko/) –
   I posted here thinking it was the right place, and thinking others may have a
   similar issue.
 * Out of curiosity, how large are your CSS? A better way to ask that question: 
   how many lines down is it before the Facebook Debugger shows your OG tags? Ours
   were in the ~4500 range.

 * Thanks, [@vmarko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vmarko/) – I’m confused
   as to what other plugin would be causing this problem? Can you help clarify for
   us what issue you think we should be investigating?
 * From looking at the OG Debugger, it seems pretty clear that Facebook is just 
   stopping its parsing at a certain point, and since we have ~47K of CSS, it’s 
   not going past that to get to the META OG tags. I’m not sure what other plugin
   would be at play here, but obviously I could be misinterpreting something?
 * Thanks!

 * Hi [@vmarko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vmarko/)! Thanks for this. HTML
   Minify didn’t seem to affect this in my testing. The only thing that seemed to
   matter was the “Eliminate render-blocking CSS by moving it to HTTP body”, unfortunately.
 * I looked at the Facebook debugger with all the permutations I could manage, and
   I’m pretty sure this was the only one that worked,

 * Thanks for your help!
 * I re-enabled site accelerator and I think you might have gotten us down the right
   path. Because… the images in /feed/ also have the parameters after them:
 * `src="https://i1.wp.com/www.macobserver.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/workfeatured-
   spotify.png?resize=1200%2C630&ssl=1"`
 * …but it validates, whereas our /feed/everything/ does NOT. And now I think I 
   know why. We are *also* using the media:content for our images, and it seems 
   the namespace for that does not support URLs with parameters. But… I can remove
   that and work around it. (we use custom fields and custom post types, hence the
   need for custom RSS creation).
 * However… we’re also podcasters, and this image is required atop every single 
   podcast feed:
 *     ```
       <image>
        <title>Mac Geek Gab</title>
        <link>https://www.macobserver.com/show/mac-geek-gab</link>
        <url>https://i0.wp.com/www.macobserver.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/macgeekgab_logo_sans_Finder-600px.png?fit=600%2C600&ssl=1</url>
        <width>144</width>
        <height>144</height>
        <description>Mac Geek Gab Podcast</description>
       </image>
       ```
   
 * Unfortunately, having those parameters in the <url> breaks every podcast validator
   in existence, and we can’t have that. So… same problem, different place. Is there
   a way to invoke an image without having Site Accelerator affect it?
 * So… we’ve had to turn off Site Accelerator for now. If you’d like to setup a 
   specific time to check it out, I’m happy to do that for you, but we can’t leave
   it like this, unfortunately.

   are other support requests that say this is fixed, though my testing is in line
