Do you get any answers to speed issues and Page Insights? I'm investigating the same.

I notice that your site crucialprojects skips along nice and fast.

Did'nt get an answer in the end and never really moved any further forward. I think we got the site as quick as we could....so had to move on.

Hi. You can prevent concrete5 to load its assets for guests by doing this

and this

I don't want to load jQuery 1.7.x because for using Zurb Foundation 5 i need jQuery 2.x. And I load this before the closing body tag...

Hi

In light of 5.7, has this been solved? I know you can include stuff dynamically using the new asset management system, but it still renders the blocking jquery script in head.

To that end I set about changing where the script is rendered, to the footer, by overriding the application/config/app.php but this prevented the UI from functioning correctly when logged in. What I think might work is to check when the user is registered, then conditionally set a flag to either render the script tag in the header or footer.

This is my override code:



'position' => 'F' is what renders it in the footer. Setting this to 'H' renders in the header. I tried adding a conditional above the return array, but it breaks the code and yields a white screen. I suspect this is not the place to do this - where would be the best place? Is there a proper way to handle this?

Many thanks

I found that you can conditionally re-register the jquery asset, pushing it into the header when it may be required, and down to the footer in normal mode by adding an event listener within the /application/bootstrap/app.php file as follows:

This is really good and works very well, but one downside is that it appears to break the imageslider; images will no longer slide across, just stay frozen on the first image. I've managed to hack the imageslider a bit to get 99/100 on PageSpeed insights:

1) use your patch to delay jquery include to before end of body tag,

2) remove javascript generation from inside application/blocks/image_slider/view.php

3) remove $this->requireAsset('responsive-slides'); from concrete/blocks/image_slider/controller.php

4) added image_slider's css into my own css

5) added the following js into my template being inserted right before the closing </body> tag:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/concrete/js/responsive-slides.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
var xs = document.getElementsByClassName("rslides");
Array.prototype.forEach.call(xs, function(x) {
$(function () {
$("#"+x.id).responsiveSlides({
prevText: "", // String: Text for the "previous" button
nextText: "",
nav:true,
timeout: 4000, speed: 500 });
});

});
});
</script>

Hacky but works for me as my site uses image sliders throughout and all have the same settings. So excited to get 99/100 on both mobile & desktop for Google PageSpeed YAY :-)
