Overview

WP Asset Manager is designed to optimize the performance of your WordPress site by allowing you to control which scripts and styles are loaded on each page. Many plugins load their resources on every page, which can slow down your site. WP Asset Manager alleviates this by enabling you to selectively disable these scripts and styles where they are not essential, such as disabling Contact Form 7 scripts on all pages except your contact page. This results in fewer HTTP requests, reduced HTML code, and easier-to-scan source code, which is beneficial for developers. The plugin also helps prevent conflicts between plugins and themes, enhances your website's performance scores on tools like GTmetrix and PageSpeed Insights, and improves overall site speed, which can positively impact your search engine rankings. Additionally, it simplifies server access log files, making them easier to scan and less space-consuming. The plugin includes translations in English, French, and Russian, and integrates useful functions from various optimization plugins, ensuring a comprehensive performance enhancement solution for your WordPress site.

User sentiment analysis

Users appreciate the plugin's ability to significantly reduce page load times by managing scripts and styles, making sites lighter and faster. The Asset Manager feature is particularly praised for allowing users to easily see and manage what plugins are loading unnecessary assets. Many find the plugin indispensable, especially developers who utilize its utility to enhance site performance. However, the plugin has some drawbacks. Users find the interface counter-intuitive and difficult to figure out initially. Some have complained that the Asset Manager appears in the admin bar for all users, even when logged out, which can be intrusive. Additionally, the transition to a premium model, making previously free features paid, has upset some users. Issues with deleting the plugin and the lack of consistent support have also been reported. Despite these issues, positive feedback highlights substantial speed improvements and ease of use once the initial learning curve is overcome.

Excellent plugin to reduce the load time on your pages.The Assets Manager menu shows at the top of the adminbar when viewing each page.

It’s useful to remove head scripts/styles that are only needed on a few pages, basically to police stuff plugins really should be doing on their own. My biggest complaint is “assets manager” shows in the admin bar for ALL users even logged out! if the admin bar is visible. I suspect the author keeps that disabled on their site and doesn’t realize it shows. I have to hide the manager (making it impossible to edit) at all times because I do show the admin bar for the Friends plugin and other features.

At first I started with one star because haven’t found the button on which one get to the assets manager, then three stars because I wasn’t sure how it works, now after using it and dig into the code of the plugin I found it very good so that’s the five stars, works as expected! Great work, thank you! This topic was modified 2 years, 4 months ago by Tokatl. This topic was modified 2 years, 4 months ago by Tokatl. Reason: Understood how it works

I need a plugin like this, BUT, like other reviewers, I can’t figure out how to configure and use it. There’s a message in the settings that says to use the link in the Admin Bar. There is nothing related to this plugin that shows up in the Admin Bar. How does one use this? Surely, one of the reviewers that gave 5 starts can chime in? Cheers

Well can’t try this as this is unnecessary coded with an extra panel which is a miracle to be found. No menu in the admin panel like described (which is unnecessary and annoying anyway)
