MP Performance Optimizer is a lightweight, dependency-free performance plugin for WordPress. It only affects visitors who are not logged in, so your admin experience is never impacted.
Features
- Defer JavaScript execution
- Move scripts to the footer
- Load CSS asynchronously
- Combine multiple CSS files into one cached file
- Minify combined CSS
- Remove emoji detection scripts
- Remove block library / global styles CSS (classic themes)
- Remove Dashicons for logged-out visitors
- Simple exclusion lists so nothing breaks
- Built-in cache management screen
Safety first
- Optimizations never run in wp-admin, AJAX, REST, WP-CLI, or cron requests.
- Optimizations never run for logged-in users.
- An emergency “Disable All” switch is available at all times.
- Append
?mpprfo_no_opt to any front-end URL to temporarily bypass all optimizations for testing.
- Upload the
mukesh-parihar-performance-optimizer folder to /wp-content/plugins/.
- Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” screen in WordPress.
- Go to Settings → Mukesh Parihar Optimizer to configure optimizations.
Will this break my site?
Optimizations only run for logged-out visitors, and every optimization has an exclusion list. Test on staging first and use the exclusion fields if something looks off.
How do I find a CSS or JS handle to exclude?
View your site’s page source (logged out) and look for the id="HANDLE-css" or id="HANDLE-js" attribute on <link> / <script> tags. Use the part before -css / -js.
How do I temporarily disable everything?
Enable “Disable All Optimizations” on the General tab, or append ?mpprfo_no_opt to any front-end URL.
