lost.hinataParticipantHello WoodMart Support Team,
I am seeking your expert guidance on the optimal performance setup for my website.
Here is my environment:
Theme: WoodMart (latest version)
Hosting: Hostinger (which uses a LiteSpeed Web Server)
Caching Plugin: The official LiteSpeed Cache plugin
I have noticed in the latest versions of WoodMart, the WoodMart > Performance panel has evolved. It now focuses on intelligent and selective script loading (“load only scripts that are required”) and no longer has a simple “Combine JS/CSS” toggle.
Given this, my question is about the best practice for combining and minifying files:
Should I use the LiteSpeed Cache plugin to handle the combining and minifying of JS and CSS files, letting it optimize the “smart list” of files provided by WoodMart?
My current strategy is to set the following options to ON within the LiteSpeed Cache plugin settings:
Minify CSS & JS
Combine CSS & JS
Defer JS
Could you please confirm if this is the recommended best practice for achieving optimal performance with this setup? Or is there a different approach you would advise?
Thank you for your clarification and for your excellent theme.

Luke NielsenKeymasterIn any case, you need to use the Cache plugin, which provides the functionality for combining.
Here is an article with the best practices – https://xtemos.com/wordpress-performance-optimization-the-ultimate-guide-in-2021/

lost.hinataParticipantHello dear Woodmart Support,
Thank you for your reply.
However, I find the answer a bit too general and it doesn’t really address my specific question. I’ve already read your documentation and carefully followed the instructions — including the guide you previously sent me — but I did not find a solution to the problems I’m encountering.
Could you please provide more technical details or investigate the exact cause of the issues I mentioned? This would help me a lot to resolve it effectively.
Thank you in advance for your assistance!
Best regards,

Luke NielsenKeymasterWe have removed those options in Performance, because our files are connected when needed. By default, all files are minified. This option (minify) you need to use when one of the plugins does not have minimized files.
Kind Regards

lost.hinataParticipantHello dear support,
I’m gradually progressing with the optimization of my website using LiteSpeed Cache.
I’ve read your documentation several times and am following your recommendations step by step to avoid any issues.Attached (or below), you’ll find my current LiteSpeed Cache configuration, so you can clearly see what is currently enabled and what’s still being tested.
Important note: as you’ll see in my setup, I haven’t enabled JavaScript combination at this stage.
Would you recommend activating this option, or should I leave it disabled in my current context?Issue with the HTML Block:
I’ve added a HTML Block on several category pages to display a short description, and I’ve used your guide to include a Read more button.
However, on mobile devices, the feature is not working correctly:The hidden content is always expanded, instead of partially hidden by default;
The block’s content overlaps the product grid, making the page hard to read;
Sometimes, the button appears grey instead of green, despite the intended styling.
I’m also sharing access to a clone of my live site so you can inspect the issue directly — please proceed with care as always.
Please escalate this ticket to an optimization expert, as it’s very important for me to receive accurate and advanced advice tailored to my current configuration.
Thanks again for your valuable help.
Best regards,
Cédric M.Attachments:

lost.hinataParticipantHello, I’m having trouble sharing my exported LiteSpeed Cache configuration file with you directly. Here’s a Google Drive link instead: [insert your link]. If there’s a better way to send you my config next time, please let me know. Thank you!
