 * Hi!
 * I have noticed that deactivating Autoptimize completely changes my css. I have
   deleted all caches within the cache folder but nothing has changed. Any idea 
   why?
 * Thanks a lot!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fdisabling-autoptimize-crashes-css%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * hey goonhoon ;
    the site looks ok, both as it is now (with AO enabled) but also
   when I disable AO by adding `?ao_noptimize=1` to the URL. you might just need
   to clear your page cache after disabling AO?
 * hope this helps,
    frank
