Can any one help me in how to clear the following from the report? * Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content * Your page has 3 blocking script resources and 4 blocking CSS resources.

I tried adding this expires caching code to my . htaccess; however, it caused a 500 internal server error. I am assuming it is because the host provider does not have the mod_expires module enabled. * Hoping someone out there has figured this one out. * [cybersedona](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cybersedona/) * (@cybersedona) * [12 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/render-blocking-javascript/#post-3991179) * same issues here everyone, no answers yet, I have tried several plugins that say that they remove scripts in the header, no luck yet. will post something if I find. * [clouder](https://wordpress.org/support/users/clouder/) * (@clouder) * [12 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/render-blocking-javascript/#post-3991183) * Looking for the same one. * My score is horrible at 75. * [Lollygreen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lollygreen/) * (@lollygreen) * [12 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/render-blocking-javascript/#post-3991184) * I too would like the answer * [ericplotts](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ericplotts/) * (@ericplotts) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/render-blocking-javascript/#post-3991211) * So many people with the same problem and no answer. * [leslie1019wp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/leslie1019wp/) * (@leslie1019wp) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/render-blocking-javascript/#post-3991214) * First of all, use non-blocking using Async in minfication settings. Also, not all render blocking code can be removed above the fold. This is why you want to use non-blocking with Async. * I just posted in another thread with reco’d settings for minfication. You just can’t optimize all the code PSS reports on. * [sadhaka](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sadhaka/) * (@sadhaka) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/render-blocking-javascript/#post-3991216) * Changing the js minify settings from default (blocking) to non-blocking using“ async” reliably takes my Page Speed score down from 93 to 85. Maybe it’s just my setup, but I thought I’d just report that. * [sadhaka](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sadhaka/) * (@sadhaka) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/render-blocking-javascript/#post-3991217) * … but Google Page Speed still recommends “Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content” for 10 resources. The only thing I can think of to do is to write code myself to deregister the resources and then load them in a different place, but that would be a hassle every time a plugin gets updated.
