 * Hello,
 * WPGhost is great for hiding everything I need but after changing paths I am enabling
   js and css manually using W3 cache meaning I will need to manually enter the 
   paths to each js and css file.
 * The problem is WPGhost gives them random names instead of allowing me to set 
   static names, which may cause issues in the future due to manually adding these
   paths to W3 cache.
 * Is there any way to manually change the plugin path names? Similar to the mapping
   function or would just using mapping manually work?
 * Thanks

 * It looks like the answer is to use URL mapping, but seems hit and miss.
 * Working ok on JS but not CSS 🙁

 * 👋Hi,
 * Thank you for reaching out
 * Yes, if it’s advanced with plugins and themes, it can give custom names to each
   one.
 * Based on our tests with W3 it works with the default random names.
 * What you can do is to use JS and CSS combinations from W3 for filenames that 
   can have plugin names.

 * Hi,
 * Thanks for the suggestion.
 * Yes the random names work with W3 but my concern is if the random names change
   at a later date if for some reason wpghost needed a reset, then I’d have to re
   enter into W3.
 * I’ll figure something out, maybe premium.
 * Thanks again.

 * I don’t believe that is needed, however, you can test that by disabling the plugin
   and enabling it back to see if it changes.
 * This way you can rest assured that no issues with W3 plugin will occur in the
   future.
 * If you have any other questions, don’t hesitate to reach out.
