This interface and those baked in page size/load metrics are way more impressive than the other well-known cleanup plugins.
I swear you were describing our site word for word!! We have been struggling getting our site to load faster because of so many plugins. as always, you are a lifesaver!!!
Cheers for this, Paul. Another great find. Love the new music as well.
Great, great, great plugin!!!!!
I have been searching for this topic through CZcams for a long time. This tutorial is one of the most helpful tutorials that I have already watched. Thank you for your efforts.
This is very impressive, someone is obviously thinking of how to solve a major problem. I just want to suggest replacing the angular text with the icons of the plugins or just making it vertical...but this is so good, I am adding it to my current project immediately
WOW! I'm glad that I subscribed to your channel and found this amazing video. This is going to save tons of loading time to all my client's websites..
I have Asset Cleanup installed but this one looks handy. Thanks for bringing this plugin into our notice.
Genius concept, I’ll def checkout!
Very good plugin Paul. Thanks for the recommendation...
Thank you very much Paul for sharing such a nice overview of my plugin!
My pleasure Jose. :)
Nice work my man. Nice work! Been looking for this for a few years now and here it is. Amen.
@@BrianSchalkxSEO Thank you very much!
Very Nice work José! This is a Game Changer plugin, thanks for your time in this 🙏
@@NOALNOM many thanks to you! I'm very happy that you like it.
This is very awesome! Very few plugins offer not only load on needed pages.
Thank you for this! The interface looks light-years better than what I'm using now
👉👉👉 WPTuts, muchas gracias, excelente tutorial. Muy claro y bien explicado. Y con información muy práctica y valiosa 😃👌👍
I already used this plugin over two years ago. It does a good job. I just started liking the script manager of Perfmatters more because it gives more granular control for the individual files of each plugin
The free version disables the entire plugins, but the PRO version also gives the possibility to clean up the assets of the remaining active plugins and the theme. I prefer first disabling the entire plugins that I don't need, and then cleaning up the remaining assets of the remaining active plugins. I prefer this procedure when there are many plugins.
Have to say this looks good and will give it a test drive. Thanks once again
Amazing tip, thank you
Thanks Paul, very cool!
Tks so much for the explanation!!!!
Thanks Paul. Just the thing I wanted to know. Simple and good insight. Let’s hope the error checks stays working.
And looking at a t-shirt selling site made me wonder🤔. Will there be a WPTuts shop soon? 🤣 #hoody
@@thijs7504 good call. I'm wondering too now.
great plugin thank you so much
Cool plugin. Would love to see something similar in Perfmatters.
thank you, i have perfmatters, are those 2 plugins doing the same? Or one is better than the other?
Excellent work! =D
Gave this a quick run on a slow live site (I know!) This is one impressive plugin, dramatic increase in Lighthouse tests. Cheers Paul C and Jose Mortellaro
Very happy to hear this David Meeke!
Just on time. About to launch a site tomorrow.
Nice! Hopefully this will help the launch go even quicker (pun intended!)
How did you know I was looking for a plug-in cleanup? Thanks, Paul! (Well, the irony is, if I had installed all the plug-ins you’ve highlighted over the last couple of years, I’d have quite a plug-in zoo on my sites.)
What I’d love to see is an explanation, for a non techie like me, what type of plug-ins affect the scripts loaded in delivering pages, and what plug-ins are merely utilities for admin background purposes, like backups or dashboard tweaks. Most WP CZcamsrs make it sound like plug-ins are generally bad for performance. But they are not the same. Or are they? What are general guidelines? That’s a video lots of us would watch.
Hi,
Can you tell us the pros of Vanilla WordPress and
can you do a tutorial on how to do a vanilla WordPress installation, please?
Nifty plugin
1:26 I always find it interesting to see what other plugins WP gurus have installed. And how often they have a slew of updates that they haven't done (you pass though!).
Lol, that's my OCD for you.. ;)
Can we preview the changes made BEFORE saving/rolling them? If this is possible that would be amazing because we can have a chance to see if anything breaks in the front-end BEFORE saving any changes to a live/production site.
Yes, of course. It's better you see the preview before saving. When you click on the lens icon it will show you the page loading the plugins that you see active at that moment. No matter what it's saved. You can use the preview also for problem-solving when you have other plugins that give you issues. FDP is both for speed optimization and problem-solving.
Looks like the page speed test doesn't work on a test site, is that right?
This is #1 reason I don't like Wordpress as a coder. CMS should do this automatically out of the box. I have one big project with bunch of custom plugins that I wrote just for this site. And what I did there - I created a plugin that always loads first when you open up a page. It gets page content before WP outputs it, then it checks what plugins are used on this page and only then enqueues their scripts and styles into head. But this works only with plugins that you include on a page with shortcodes... So it works on my project fine, but this solution is not universal. That's the best way of automization for this problem I came up with so far.
That's a very good way to clean up the unneeded assets. I also did it many times before creating FDP. With FDP you can disable the entire plugins. So you can get rid of assets, but also of unneeded database queries and PHP code. This helps also with the first server response time when the pages are not served by the cache.
@@josemortellaro2791 Well, seems like FDP is the best thing we can get for Wordpress atm. But I don't like the fact that clients will have to tweak Wordpress manually when they'll decide to add some new pages. Wordpress itself looks confusing for newcomers, especially when you add bunch of plugins on top of it. That's why I rely on Elementor a lot, it makes things more intuitive for clients, at least in editing aspect. I hope there's a way to make FDP work in auto-mode, we just don't see it for now.
@@heavylog1c a system based on plugins has pros and cons.
On the one hand, you can easily extend the functionality, and you have a lot of flexibility, on the other hand, you have a number of plugins written by different authors that could conflict, or load code where it is not needed.
I think we need to consider the balance between pros and cons. When the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, it pays to use WordPress in my opinion. And this is the case for many situations. Then, of course, it's not always the case.
About the auto-mode, the premium version of FDP tries to go in this direction. It provides the auto-suggestion of the needed plugins, it also warns the user if after saving a page it detects some deactivated plugins that should be active, but better you have also check manually that all is ok.
Hello, does it also improve the backend page load speed?
Yes, you can also remove plugins from backend pages where you don't need them
Please test on gt metrix and google page insight.
nice! do you think the free version does everything most sites might need, or worth extra for Pro?
I've only tested the free version and that looks to cover most common use cases. I'd test the free version and take a look at the differences and see if the premium has specific features you need.
@@WPTuts Cheers, and great videos! thanks
The free version is totally ok when you know the plugins that are installed. The PRO version can automatically suggest to you the plugins that you need, and it has some other features like further assets cleanup (of the remaining active plugins), deactivation by the user (role,, capabilities...), general bloat cleanup, bulk actions...The PRO version adds more features but depends on your needs if it is worth it for you.
@@josemortellaro2791 thanks
@@josemortellaro2791 thanks for the run down.
The problem is Elementor in the first place because it injects a lot of bloat code that slows down the performances. I use Zion Builder and managed to score 100 on mobile without any optimizations.
Thanks for demonstrating that. I like it and I don't. The options are great but it's sad that something like this is needed to clean up other plugins mess.
I'm worried I wouldn't be able to make smart decisions. I may disable HappyFiles but how would I know if it needs its script there to find out if an image is used? The frontend may be fine but now the backend shows wrong info. Just an example. It feels risky.
