Warning about un-minified JS is wrong

    I’m testing our site with your SEO Analyzer (https://rankmath.com/tools/seo-analyzer/). And is trying to fix all the problems. I’m currently trying to fix the errors with the page size and JS minify. And I have enabled minifying with the cache plugin we’re using on our WordPress site. We are using W3 Total Cache. And the JS has been minified. But your analayzer tool is still warning about that files aren minified. And it then refers to js files that are minified. It’s nothing more that can be done with those files.

    I give you the link to an example in the “Sensitive Data” section here. What more am I supposed to do to minify that file even more?

    Hello Peter,

    Thanks for getting in touch.

    If you run your JS file through this minifier:

    You will notice that although your JS file is minified, there is still room for improvement:
    js minify

    The gain is very small but that is why Rank Math is showing that the JS is not minified.

    With that said, if you believe it is not something that can be improved, simply ignore the test.

    Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.

    What minifier is that you used then?

    Hi Peter,

    Here it is:

    Okay, too bad there is no WordPress plugin by them. It makes it difficult to fill that checkbox. And of course I want to use the same tools that are used to validate our site by the RM Analyzer since we have a trust in Rank Math. But for now that’s just not possible to do anything about I guess.

    Hi Peter,

    Thanks for the follow up.

    Since you already have the JS minified you have nothing to worry about!

    Please let us know if you have additional questions. Thank you.
