* [@plan9](https://wordpress.org/support/users/plan9/) no, this feature is not
available. I will consider adding it though. Would you like an option to globally
disable all HTML comments or select the ones you’d like to be stripped?

* Hi Gabe
* It would be great to have a global disable but with an option to allow specific
ones – such as Google HTML comments that are needed for Google analytics. W3
Total Cache offers this option through a box to whitelist specific comment stems–
it works but it isn’t very user friendly.

* [@plan9](https://wordpress.org/support/users/plan9/) I will consider your feature
request to be added to the HTML cleanup. I was thinking of showing all comments
and choose which ones to disable but it can get very complicated if there are
many pages and lots of them on many pages (no need to overload the database etc.).
Removing all with exception patterns would work much better! Moreover, special
attention has to be given to the Internet Explorer conditional comments. Thanks
for the suggestion!

* [@plan9](https://wordpress.org/support/users/plan9/) as promised, the feature“
Strip HTML Comments” was added to the plugin’s settings under “HTML Source CleanUp”.
Just re-download the 1.3.2.2 tag. The feature will obviously be implemented in
1.3.2.3 when it will be released. Happy testing!

* Hi
* I’ve tested it and so far it works very well. I haven’t whitelisted anything
and all is working fine (even google analytics).
* Thanks very much for this!

* [@plan9](https://wordpress.org/support/users/plan9/) cool, if you’re happy with
the plugin overall, it would be good if you can leave a review about it at your
earliest convenience: [https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-asset-clean-up/reviews/?filter=5](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-asset-clean-up/reviews/?filter=5)
* More features will come up soon, some related to UX and the way the asset list
is showing for easier management. If you were to add a new feature to the plugin,
what would it be?

* [@gabelivan](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gabelivan/) I just left a review
for the plugin. I’m not sure about any new features – but will let you know if
anything springs to mind.
* Thanks!

* [@plan9](https://wordpress.org/support/users/plan9/) thanks for that! Yes, if
you notice anything that you believe it’s helpful or saves time, let me now!
* Perhaps having a list of feature requests with voting options would be good to
have somewhere so you can view let’s say ten requests and you can choose which
one you believe it’s the most important. There are plugin developers doing that
and I will consider having the same approach.
