    With the latest version of GP Premium, there’s an option to have an external CSS file. It’s very easy to implement via appearance > customize > general however there is a dropdown option to “regenerate CSS”.

    Is this necessary to do?

    Is this just for new CSS changes that are not rendering?

    Thanks!

    Thanks, Leo – I am referring to the new feature, so apparently there is the faster loading of CSS in GP Premium?

    The file is loaded externally? Is that correct? Just curious if I have to regenerate CSS?

    Hi there,

    When switching to External file – GP should automatically generate the file.
    If it doesn’t then hit the Regenerate CSS button. If you’re not sure hit it anyway 🙂

    Yes this can improve performance – as it removes the majority of the CSS that is traditionally inlined in the <head> of the theme. As an external file, it can be cached by the browser, so only loads ONCE on initial load. If you’re using an Cache/Optimization plugin it can be combined as well.
