 * Since the plugin does not work in combination with Ezoic, as stated [here](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ezoic-2/),
   which JavaScript and CSS files related to the plugin should be put in exclusions
   for optimization (e. g. Delay or Compress)? Please specify their paths in the
   plugin directory. Thank you.

 * Sorry, we don’t use the Ezoic plugin so really can’t answer that question. But
   I do have to note that the External Links plugin does not delay, compress, minify
   or modify CSS/JS files in any way.

 * I probably didn’t express myself correctly, sorry. I’d like to know which JS 
   and CSS that WP External Links uses (e.g. wpel-link-highlighter.js) I can try
   to turn off from speed optimization to maybe make things work. It’s possible 
   that Ezoic is optimizing these files and that’s why the plugin doesn’t work.

 * Hi,
 * WPEL does not rely on any CSS or JS to run in the front-end except for the icons
   so it’s probably a different issue causing the conflict between Ezoic and WPEL
   like cache or it’s overwriting our hooks to alter the content itself somehow.
