### About this Plugin

HTML, CSS & JS optimization plugin for developers and advanced users. Note you need to look into the HELP tab after installing the plugin and manually configure it for your site. Each site is different, so the default recommendations may or may not work for you and you will need to test and find out how to adjust your settings.

### Static WordPress Challenge

This plugin depends on live, request-time WordPress/PHP functionality such as sessions, authenticated visitors, or dynamic endpoints. Its core visitor-facing features do not work on a static WordPress site. Neither Simply Static Pro nor Static Studio changes that compatibility verdict. Use a separate hosted, headless, or external service if the plugin's use case offers one.

### Frequently Asked Questions

Is Fast Velocity Minify compatible with Simply Static?

No. Fast Velocity Minify requires live, request-time WordPress functionality and cannot operate as a static site. Simply Static Pro and Static Studio do not change that compatibility verdict.

Can a paid Simply Static product make Fast Velocity Minify compatible?

No. Neither Simply Static Pro nor Static Studio can turn Fast Velocity Minify's session-based or request-time PHP functionality into a static-site feature. A separate headless or external service would be a different implementation.
