Thread: Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content

Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content

Hi,

I am suffering on the google page speed test due to the following.

Consider Fixing:

Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content

Your page has 22 blocking script resources and 8 blocking CSS resources. This causes a delay in rendering your page.

None of the above-the-fold content on your page could be rendered without waiting for the following resources to load. Try to defer or asynchronously load blocking resources, or inline the critical portions of those resources directly in the HTML.
Remove render-blocking JavaScript:

Most if not all of these scripts are in classipress/wordpress

Is there anything I can do to rectify this?

Should appthemes be working towards placing these scripts in such a way that page speed doesn't suffer?

Help please.
