Page Optimize is conflicting with Gutenverse Theme

    After the most recent update to Gutenverse’s Photology (Jeg Studio) theme, the galleries on my staging site stopped functioning. Sorting, zoom, etc., all stopped working. Upon chatting with support on the Jeg Studio platform and troubleshooting all plugins one by one, it is the Page Optimize WP plugin that is the problem. With the plugin inactive, the galleries now work just fine. I posted my system status to them so they could troubleshoot on their end, but they asked that I post the issue in this forum to help find the source of the conflict. Any guidance on the matter would be greatly appreciated.

    We can’t help with third party plugins; it’s up to the plugin developer to sort things out.

    As other so called optimizers are incompatible with the wordpress.com platform, I would say you can’t use that kind of plugins – https://wordpress.com/support/plugins/incompatible-plugins/

    It sounds like a conflict between Page Optimize WP and the Gutenverse Photology theme. Here are a few steps to try:

    1. Exclude Scripts: In Page Optimize WP settings, exclude the gallery-related scripts or CSS files from being minified/optimized. This often resolves plugin conflicts.
    2. Async/Defer Settings: Disable JavaScript defer/async options in Page Optimize WP, as these can sometimes interfere with interactive elements.
    3. Test Different Settings: Gradually disable optimization features (e.g., HTML minification, CSS combination) to pinpoint the exact cause.
    4. Contact Page Optimize WP Support: Share the issue and any error logs with their support team—they might have a fix or workaround.

    @jamesbrown7781711 as I already said, that plugin is incompatible with the wordpress.com platform. Also it seems that plugin is no longer suppoprted for several years and has a lot of issues with wordpress.
