    Autoptimize is causing a 500 error in Screaming Frog making the site appear to be not indexed. The site above is still loading up fine but every page in Screaming Frog is coming up 500. Is there some way I can share the error so no one else sees it? Even with the plugin updated I’m still seeing the error so I disabled Autoptimize.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Not sure what Screaming Frog is, but in case of a 500 error you might be able to find relevant information in the PHP errorlog?

    Can I share the error log securely with you?

    OK, based on that error the JS minifier that is part of AO stumbles over this piece of JS code;

    <script>
WebChat.loadChat({
"initialMessage":"Welcome to McQuillan Home Services! Can I answer a question or
book your appointment?",
"initialResponses":[],
"logoUrl":"https://mcquillanbros.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/cropped-McQuillan-14
0th-Logo.webp",

    specifically the line-break in the “initialMessage” string (it is possible that the linebreak in logoUrl will cause similar issues). can you somehow remove those linebreaks OR disable “aggregate inline JS” and/ or “also minify inline CSS/ JS”?
