Perhaps this is an issue with my Autoptimizer config?
I am having the same issue with my website. What theme are you using?
I’m running Bridge (Qode), though obviously I’m using a child theme.
looks like jquery from that CDN (weird setup) is slow to arrive, causing “jQuery is not defined”-errors even when jQuery is not asynced. You could try without the CDN or you could try to keep the Autoptimized JS deferred instead of asyncing it?
How would I go about keeping the Autoptimized JS deferred?
I’d like to try any potential options before I test without the CDN/potentially look for a new CDN if that’s the culprit.
Thanks
How would I go about keeping the Autoptimized JS deferred?
by unticking the “enable autoptimize support” option at the bottom of the screen.
Gotcha, thank you. I’ll give that a go and report back with the results.
Though, personally, would you suggest just making the switch to Cloudflare? I imagine this should address the issue as well?
Went ahead and unticked the “enable autoptimize support” option and that didn’t seem to solve the problem.
I suppose the next step now is to look into switching to another CDN (I’m thinking Cloudflare)
Edit: Went ahead and switched off the CDN as well, and the issue still seems to be present.
well the “jQuery is not defined”-error is gone but there are some others. can you try “defer” iso “async”?
I’m not sure I follow, jquery is set to exclude and “enable autoptimize support” is off. What is it you want me to try?
What is it you want me to try?
well, asyncJS is now set to “async” and I would like you to try switching to defer instead (it’s higher up the settings page, not in the “autoptimize integration”-field)
Ah! Gotcha, sorry it’s been a long day and it’s just about 3:30am here. Not processing information amazingly right now haha.
Giving this a go now.
Edit: Async JavaScript Method switched to “defer” though I’m not seeing any change.
looks like the problem is due to your AO config rather then AsyncJS, can you untick the “also aggregate inline JS”-option?
Beautiful that did it!
Thank you very much, you solved a serious headache. Am I good to revert the changes we did to AsyncJS, or should I leave it as is?
