I am trying to solve the issue that salient is a very slow theme when using page speed insights. Current mobile 53/100 and desktop 67/100. I keep getting messages about Eliminating render-blocking java and css. When I turn off the theme and use a basic one my page speed increases to 98/100 for both mobil and desktop.
It also tells me to minify the JS and CSS... I can NOT use w3tc as I am on godaddy managed server and they already cache things and do not allow that plugin
I've had a client complain about the same thing regarding page speed. they love the design using salient but constantly complain about load speed. i'm not using any plug-ins and all image assets have been optimized.
Try leveraging browser caching by adding the code below, to your htaccess file. Also, try Wordfence plugin and enable Falcon (performance settings) if your server will allow. These two things took less than 5 minutes to implement and I'm scoring around 85/100. Scoring into the 90's can probably be achieved by installing a plugin to assist with css/js minify.
Hey guys, I'm trying to address the same issues but am essentially an amateur. Should I attempt making these adjustments or am I going to break my site? For example, I have no idea even how or where to add code to my htaccess file or even what that is, lol.

I am also having problems with code-oriented performance issues. Any insight would be appreciated.

I have the same problem when fixing pagespeed for google: blocking Javascript and CSS files. Can you help fixing this problem?
