    Hi,

    During a recent investigation into our page speed, I discovered that the following animations are significantly impacting our page load times:

    rotate
    et-fadein
    transform
    stroke-dashoffset
    visibility

    To enhance our page load performance, I propose disabling these animations.

    Could you please advise on the best approach to disable these animations without negatively impacting the user experience?

    Thanks,

    Dear @Hassan,

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    We regret to inform you that the animations in question are globally integrated into our theme and are thoughtfully utilized across various style components. Unfortunately, modifying or removing them directly within the theme is not feasible.

    As an alternative, we recommend contacting the WP Rocket support team, as you are a valued user of their plugin. They may be able to guide you on whether their settings allow for the exclusion of specific parts from the minified CSS during the CSS minification process.

    Should you have any further questions or require additional assistance, please do not hesitate to let us know.

    Best regards,
    Jack Richardson
