 * Hello,
 * I use your minify CSS option, but Lighthouse reports a lot of unused CSS. Mainly
   this CSS is from my plugins. I want to clean this. So question is: what is the
   best way to handle this?
 * 1) disable minify CSS, cleanup the Plugin Stylesheets and enable minify CSS again?
   (
   and will this last with future plugin updates?) or 2) cleanup the minified CSS
   file generated by WP-Optimize directly? (and will this last with future plugin
   updates?)
 * All help is welcome!
 * Thanks,
 * Denny
