 * I got some problem when I was checked my website into google page speed. My website
   score is 67/100. I think is very bad (slowly). My score very low after i installed
   newest wordpress.
 * Most important Google suggestion is about “Render-block javascript”. How i can
   fix this problem?
 * These files that have a problem that was i meant: (javascript in core file wp-
   include)

 * Hi zaidromly,
    the fastest and simplest way would be to *remove the plugins* 
   that use javascript or in this case Jquery on the page.
 * It would help if you would put the actual website address so we can take a look
   at what exact plugins are using on your website.
 * Or just a link to the Google Developer speed insights results so we can see the
   actual suggestion?
 * P.S.
    Sometimes it is very hard to defer parsing the JavaScript on the page since
   it is connected to the key elements for the page to load. But sometimes it is
   some insignificant element that can be removed from the page.
 * Best of luck and let me know if I can help further

 * I am having a heck of a time with this issue also. Just installed Autoptimize,
   which helped, but still showing 63/100. Site = [http://www.homeautomation-nation.com](http://www.homeautomation-nation.com).
   Of course, I know just enough on WordPress to be dangerous, but not enough to
   muck around in the code. Any help is much appreciated! 🙂

 * evening meganshay
    -> most themes & plugins require jquery to remain un-optimized,
   hence it is excluded by default. you can try to remove js/jquery/jquery.js from
   the JS optimization exclusion list & test if your site still works off course
 * -> autoptimize CSS; have a look at the “inline all” and “inline & defer” options
   as explained [in the FAQ](https://wordpress.org/plugins/autoptimize/faq/)
 * -> google fonts; either tick the “remove google fonts” option in AO or try the“
   google webfont optimizer” plugin
 * hope this helps,
    frank

 * Thanks Frank!!! Seems like that did the trick. Checked boxes, ran [https://jonassebastianohlsson.com/criticalpathcssgenerator/](https://jonassebastianohlsson.com/criticalpathcssgenerator/),
   and inserted the code it spit back. Now, just have to figure out a few other 
   little things. Browser caching issue, apparently. Anyway, appreciate the quick
   help!

 * Hi Frank! Hoping maybe you can give some insight…I am still having trouble. Getting
   this message:
 * Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content
    Your 
   page has 1 blocking CSS resources. This causes a delay in rendering your page.
   Approximately 15% of the above-the-fold content on your page could be rendered
   without waiting for the following resources to load. Try to defer or asynchronously
   load blocking resources, or inline the critical portions of those resources directly
   in the HTML. [http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto%3A300%2C400%2C500%2C700%2C900&subset=latin&ver=4.6.1](http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto%3A300%2C400%2C500%2C700%2C900&subset=latin&ver=4.6.1)
 * If I check the box to not load Google fonts, of course that screws up the fonts
   that came with the theme I’m using. Is there another way around this?
 * Thank you!!!

 * well, you could try the “google webfont optimizer”-plugin 🙂

 * Hi I have similar problems trying to load
 * jstree
    jtable.org bootstrap-table –> [http://issues.wenzhixin.net.cn/bootstrap-table](http://issues.wenzhixin.net.cn/bootstrap-table)
 * take a look at if I use locally (on my pc) with local library ( no wordpress):
 * same but locally with cdn jquery.min
    ⌊cdn⌉ Inside worpress :
 * So I want to show off that it’s only working locally with local library ..
 * Basically, I can get to wokr jstree.org inside wordpress using on footer cdn 
   library version :
    <script src=”[https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.12.1/jquery.min.js”></script&gt](https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.12.1/jquery.min.js”></script&gt);
 * Anybody got a workaround for this? I need to use both libraries on the same page
   as getting both jstree + jtable or another table lirabry through getting data
   from server and need modify some fields and get back this info to back end side.
