=== 365i Performance Optimizer === Contributors: bsolveit Tags: performance, preload, defer, elementor, optimization Requires at least: 6.2 Tested up to: 6.9 Requires PHP: 7.4 Stable tag: 1.1.0 License: GPLv2 or later License URI: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.html Elementor-safe performance tweaks for WordPress 6.9: speculation rules, preconnect/preload, defer scripts, emoji cleanup, and smarter images. == Description == This plugin replaces a common set of manual functions.php tweaks with a friendly Settings page under **Settings -> Performance Optimizer**. Features: * Speculative loading rules with configurable eagerness (front end only). * Preconnect and preload hints for styles, fonts, and a hero image. * One-click auto-detect to prefill preload URLs from your homepage (no external proxy). * Removes emoji scripts/styles and the embeds script (front end only). * Defers eligible scripts while skipping Elementor, jQuery, and core handles. * Optional REST/oEmbed link removal and XML-RPC disable. * Smarter image handling: high fetch priority for LCP candidates and optional lazy-load skip on the homepage. * Automatically detects Elementor edit/preview mode and backs off to avoid conflicts. Options you can control: * Speculative loading on/off and eagerness level. * Preconnect host list, stylesheet preload URL, font preload URL, hero image preload URL, and whether hero preload is front-page only. * Toggle emoji removal, embeds script removal, XML-RPC disable, REST link removal, and oEmbed link removal. * Defer scripts toggle with custom exclusion handles. * Image tweaks: set fetchpriority=high when missing, and disable lazy-load on the homepage. Built for WordPress 6.9 using the Settings API, proper escaping/sanitization, and uninstall cleanup to meet WordPress.org guidelines. Settings are registered with a sanitize callback and defaults to ensure inputs are cleaned on save. == Installation == 1. Upload the `365i-performance-optimizer` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`. 2. Activate the plugin through the "Plugins" screen. 3. Visit **Settings -> Performance Optimizer** to toggle or customize the optimizations. == Frequently Asked Questions == = Will this affect Elementor editing? = No. The plugin detects Elementor edit/preview contexts and keeps all optimizations disabled there. = Can I turn off individual tweaks? = Yes. Every optimization has its own checkbox, plus text fields for preload URLs and exclusions. = Does this plugin send any data off-site? = No. It does not collect or transmit any personal data or usage data. = How does auto-detect work? = When you click Auto-detect, the plugin fetches your own homepage (via `wp_remote_get`), inspects `` and `` tags, and suggests safe preload targets. It never calls third-party services or proxies. == Screenshots == 1.
