 * Installed Autoptimize and checked the Optimize JavaScript Code and Optimize CSS
   Code boxes. PageSpeed Insights score definitely increased, but I still have the
   following render-blocking JavaScript listed:
 * wp-content/cache/autoptimize/js/autoptimize_361c50669dbcf5b1698f78431421bd2c.
   js
 * Any way to eliminate this one too?
 * Cheers!

 * hiya steve;
    uncheck the “force JS in head” and optionally “also aggregate inline
   JS” options (test & possibly do additional config as per the troubleshooting 
   tips [in the FAQ](https://wordpress.org/plugins/autoptimize/faq/)) and you should
   be in the clear.
 * happy speed-hacking!

 * I’m having the exact same issue.
 * No matter what I do I can’t get this one to go away and it’s my only red on mobile.
   🙁
 * Any other thoughts on this one?

 * lol…I’m a moron.
 * Here’s an example:

 * The entire domain is only for AdWords landing pages so as an overall site it 
   doesn’t make any sense.

 * well, your problem is render-blocking CSS, not JS, so go for either ‘inline all
   CSS’ (easy) or ‘inline and defer CSS’ (more difficult, but better). there’s more
   info [in the FAQ](https://wordpress.org/plugins/autoptimize/faq/) on that topic.

 * So, still have an issue with this.
 * My css is (I guess) to large for the Critical Path CSS Generator (I use Divi –
   don’t hate). 🙂
 * Any other ideas on how to generate it?

 * well, there’s Jonas’s commercial offering at [criticalcss.com](http://criticalcss.com)
   or alternatively there’s [tthis bookmarklet for chrome](https://gist.github.com/PaulKinlan/6284142).
