@tjagusz thank you for trying Asset CleanUp and for reporting a potential conflict. I haven’t had this complaint before as Cache Enabler didn’t interfere with Asset CleanUp since they are two fundamentally different plugins.
Also, you haven’t mentioned unloading useless CSS/JS which is the main feature of Asset CleanUp. This should boost your page speed score.
How did you actually test the performance (you said you haven’t seen any improvement)?
I’ll check out the latest version of Cache Enabler to make sure that it works smoothly with Asset CleanUp

@gabelivan I’ve tested the performance using Google Lighthouse.
I’ve done couple of audits without both plugins, then I added Cache Enabler, did some tests and then I’ve installed Your plugin.
The main thing is that when I enabled “CSS Files Minification” and “Combine loaded CSS” this didn’t worked – I still saw the same (large) number of requests. I’ve clear the cache in Cache Enabler but that didn’t help at all.
The only thing helped was disabling Cache Enabler – this way my CSS files got minified and combined. But the side effect is that the performance in Lighthouse dropped, because of the missing cache policy.
I’ve tried excluding useless CSS/JS but I had to do it manually for all the pages. I’ll try to remove everything unneeded and run audits again.
BTW Your plugin is awesome 😀
@tjagusz I’m glad you find the plugin awesome and hope you will continue to use it in the long run! I’ve made tests with Cache Enabled and to my surprise, you were right! The changes made by Asset CleanUp were not shown in the Cache Enabler saved static pages. I’ve released an update that fixes this and will be added in the next tag release.
To apply the changes to your existing installation, you can do one of the following:
1) Download https://plugins.trac.ww.wp.xz.cn/changeset/2167555/wp-asset-clean-up/trunk/classes/OptimiseAssets/OptimizeCommon.php?format=zip&new=2167555 – and replace it with the current /classes/OptimiseAssets/OptimizeCommon.php file within the plugin (e.g via FTPS)
2) Deactivate/Delete (no worries, all settings will be preserved) the current plugin from your website and re-upload the new development version (ZIP file) that you can download from https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/wp-asset-clean-up/advanced/ (scroll to the button and you’ll see the drop-down with the “Download” button)
Good luck and let me know how it will work out after the changes!
