Frequently asked questions.
Will SOptimizer break my website?
No. SOptimizer is built with safety as top priority. All optimization toggles are non-destructive and opt-in. Each setting includes descriptive safety labels, and you can easily exclude specific scripts, styles, or URLs if a third-party plugin requires special handling.
Does this plugin require WooCommerce to work?
No! SOptimizer works on any WordPress website. Core features such as Page Caching, WebP conversion, Critical CSS, Asset Manager, Font Self-Hosting, and Database Cleanup work on every WordPress site. The WooCommerce section activates only when WooCommerce is installed and active.
How does WebP conversion improve my site speed?
WebP images are typically 25% to 35% smaller than comparable JPEG and PNG files at the same visual quality. Smaller image files drastically reduce page payload, lower server bandwidth usage, and speed up Largest Contentful Paint (LCP).
How does Critical CSS Generation work?
Critical CSS identifies the CSS rules required to render content in the user’s initial screen (above the fold). The plugin generates this CSS directly in your browser, minifies it, and inlines it into the HTML head while deferring secondary stylesheets. This eliminates render-blocking CSS warnings in Google PageSpeed Insights.
Does Critical CSS generation send my data to external servers?
No! Unlike other plugins that require costly API credits or send your layout data to third-party cloud servers, SOptimizer generates Critical CSS 100% locally inside your browser. Your data never leaves your server.
How does Local Google Fonts hosting help with GDPR?
When browsers load fonts directly from Google’s servers ( fonts.googleapis.com ), visitor IP addresses are transmitted to Google. By downloading font files to your local server and rewriting stylesheet links, SOptimizer eliminates external requests, ensuring full GDPR compliance and faster local delivery.
What is the Cart Fragments optimization in WooCommerce?
By default, WooCommerce triggers an AJAX request ( wc-cart-fragments ) on every single page load to update the mini-cart count. On busy sites or non-eCommerce pages (like blog posts), this causes severe server load and slow Time to First Byte (TTFB). SOptimizer disables this request on non-shop pages while keeping the cart functional where needed.
Can I use SOptimizer alongside a CDN like Cloudflare?
Yes! SOptimizer works seamlessly with all major CDNs including Cloudflare, BunnyCDN, Fastly, and KeyCDN. If you use Cloudflare, upgrading to SOptimizer Pro allows you to connect the Cloudflare API to purge edge cache and manage DNS/cache settings right from WordPress.
How do I exclude certain scripts from deferral or delay?
In the JavaScript settings tab, simply enter the script handle or a URL keyword (e.g., jquery-core or custom-tracker.js ) into the Exclusion list. The plugin will skip deferral for those specific scripts.
How do I clear the page cache when I update content?
SOptimizer automatically purges relevant cached pages when you publish, edit, or delete posts, pages, or products. You can also manually purge the entire cache at any time using the Purge Cache button on the Optimize Dashboard or WordPress admin toolbar.
Does it work with the latest WordPress and WooCommerce?
Yes. The plugin is tested and fully compatible with WordPress up to 7.0 and WooCommerce up to 11.0 (including HPOS / High-Performance Order Storage).
Does SOptimizer share my telemetry or site data?
No. Any optional diagnostic telemetry is collected solely to diagnose issues, improve plugin performance, and ensure broad compatibility. Your data is strictly confidential and is never shared, rented, or sold to any third parties. Read our full privacy policy at https://siteskyline.com/privacy.
What happens if I deactivate or uninstall the plugin?
When deactivated, all optimizations cleanly disconnect and your website immediately reverts to default WordPress behavior. No core WordPress files or database tables are permanently altered.
