WP Remove Query Strings From Static Resources Pro
WP Remove Query Strings From Static Resources Pro removes query-string parameters from local CSS and JavaScript URLs on the site frontend. It handles parameters such as ?ver=, ?v=, and ?timestamp=. The add-on processes URLs ending in .css or .js, ignores external resources, and leaves the WordPress admin area unaffected.
Automatic query-string removal for local resources
WP Remove Query Strings From Static Resources Pro removes query-string parameters from local CSS and JavaScript URLs on the site frontend. It handles parameters such as ?ver=, ?v=, and ?timestamp=. The add-on processes URLs ending in .css or .js, ignores external resources, and leaves the WordPress admin area unaffected.
Query strings are often used for cache busting. Removing them from local static resource URLs is intended to help proxy servers and CDNs cache those files. The plugin works automatically after activation.
Pro controls for caching and delivery
The Pro feature set adds a options page with controls for browser caching and resource delivery, including:
- Customizable browser cache durations, GZIP compression, Cache-Control headers, Keep-Alive, and ETag removal.
- CSS, JavaScript, and HTML minification, plus the option to delay JavaScript.
- DNS Prefetch and Preload Links.
Media, fonts, database, and site health
Additional settings include lazy loading for pictures and iFrames, Google Fonts optimization, database cleanup, Heartbeat Control, and XML-RPC Disable. The Pro feature list also includes built-in WooCommerce optimization for stores using WooCommerce.
Activate the plugin to start query-string removal, then use the Pro settings page to manage the additional options relevant to your site.
