In reply to: [Autoptimize] Use with Siteground Optimiser?Great, Sorry but I found another set:
If these need to be switched off, we’re basically saying all the SG ‘front end’ setting need to switched off.
Does that make sense?
Minify the HTML Output RECOMMENDED Remove unnecessary characters from your HTML output to reduce data size and improve your site loading speed. Exclude from HTML Minification Web Fonts Optimization With this optimization we're changing the default way to load Google fonts in order to save HTTP requests. In addition to that, all other fonts that your website uses will be properly preloaded so browsers take the least possible amount of time to cache and render them. Fonts Preloading Preload the fonts you're using for faster rendering and better site performance. Make sure you preload only the fonts that are actually in use. Use the full URL to the font. Remove Query Strings from Static Resources Removes version query strings from your static resources improving the caching of those resources. Disable EmojisAgain many thanks,

In reply to: [WP YouTube Lyte] Another speed issueUnfortunately I didn’t double check the settings last night, and When I looked again this morning I hadn’t ticked ‘yes’ for ‘cache thumbnails locally. When I ticked it, it went back to the original (not the new) image.
(I’ve checked the ‘Empty WP YouTube Lyte’s cache’ many times)
Any thoughts?

In reply to: [WP YouTube Lyte] Another speed issueThanks, I had to repeat the action several times (is there a time delay?), but it then worked,
I’ll check again in the morning to confirm,
Your fast response is very much appreciated,

In reply to: [WP YouTube Lyte] Another speed issueSorry I’ve a related question:
I’ve changed my thumbnail on YouTube, I’ve turned off and then back on the cache thumbnail locally instruction, but I’m still getting the old thumbnail image appear (at least on my two local computers),
Do I need to clear the cache of the old thumbnail somewhere?
(I’ve cleared my normal caches on WordPress and on my PC),
Thanks in anticipation,
Michael
Done
Thanks works,
(Although will recheck at the end of the day as well)

So if the file isn’t:
nlp-training.org public_html .htaccessWould you give me the full file name and path,
Thanks,
Michael
I’ve found it
To confirm I add your code after ALL the following code:
# HTTPS forced by SG-Optimizer <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTP:X-Forwarded-Proto} !https RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301] </IfModule> # END HTTPS # BEGIN WordPress # The directives (lines) between "BEGIN WordPress" and "END WordPress" are # dynamically generated, and should only be modified via WordPress filters. # Any changes to the directives between these markers will be overwritten. <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}] RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !/(wp-content/uploads/.*)$ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule> # END WordPressMichael
Thanks Elena,
Appreciated,
Would you remind me how I access the wp-content directory .htaccess is it via logging into WordPress or is it through logging into Siteground,
(Although I’m curious that your SG optimiser doesn’t seem to handle this)
Thanks Elana,
My website is https://nlp-training.org/
The https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/ speed of the site was a healthy 96%,
I then embedded a YouTube video as a widget on the site and the page speed fell from 96% to about 50%, which I didn’t think was acceptable,
After exploring a lot of options I installed the WP-youtube-lyte Plugin, however this only partially worked due to a clash with your SG security plugin. When I switched the plugin off (or rather one of your support people switched it off for me) the WP-youtube-lyte Plugin worked fully and my page speed went back to about 95%.
Really what I want is a way to use both plugins at the same time,
Michael
