5. Now, look for wp-config.php and insert the following lines

Code:

define("WP_CONTENT_URL", "https://static.website.tld");
define("COOKIE_DOMAIN", "https://website.tld");

Code:

UPDATE wp_posts SET guid = REPLACE(guid,'website.tld/wp-content/','static.website.tld/')

You need to edit your main post, other people are going to make this mistake too.
Removing the query fixed inside config.php removed the problem!

Damn, this is exactly what I was needing.

@FatBee Thanks a million for taking the time to do this. I almost give up in this regard. I got tired of browsing the web trying to find these practices. Perhaps, I did find it, but since I am not good (yet) with HTML, CSS, JS, or web development in general, I just missed reading through the recommendation and actually understand the poster/instructor advise.

I am learning HTML, CSS, and JS from the ground up so I can be able to 1) improve a site page loading speed and, 2) Add some small customization to a WP site.

There are other GTMetrix and Google PageSpeed Insights issues that come along very frequently that I would like to know how you tackle them.

Can I post them here?

Cool guide but I don't get why you suggest to use webP format for the images. This format is NOT supported on Safari browsers. As you can see here Safari has 30% of the internet usage so you already loose 30% of your visitors https://www.stetic.com/market-share/browser/

If you don't want to go into technical stuff and you are using a lot of plugins then use Asset Clean up plugin. With that, you can remove some plugins from specific pages from WP dashboard.
My 2 cents.
Great guide buddy!

Great guide, very easy to do - and it does provide results... I did a lot of at the end of April, shame your guide wasn't done then - would had saved me a few days of work and research! One thing I couldn't fathom out is with Google Speed Insights -- the warning with unused CSS appears on mobile. Any ideas on locating and rectifying this issue?

This is interesting, thanks for the share!

Since using Elementor, this unused CSS it´s also a thing I am currently struggling with.

I mean, I can go to the DevTool on Chrome and determine what resources are filled with unused CSS but, after that, I don´t know what to do with the info.

I tried removing these unused lines of code by copy/pasting the lines into this tool that "clean up" the code, then, through VSC I edit by copy/pasting the "clean" code into my theme file but I always got an error.

How you get around this issue?

Ok, I found my notes on "Page Loading Speed Improvements"

You mention on the OR about prefetching but, I also found preloading and prerendering. Do these matter at all? Do they have a major impact on a page loading speed? Or, with prefetching is more than enough?

FatBee said:

Preloading sometimes make the site looks slow. Preferching is just fine!
