WP plugin that removes the ID attributes from the tags for the CSS files. Used mostly together with mod_pagespeed.

Description

Link to WordPress.org site of the plugin.

This simple plugin hooks to the wp_enqueue_scripts and removed the id='<handle of the css file>-css' attribute. Most of the time you don't need these IDs anyway.

I am using the mod_pagespeed module on my server and the combine_css filter doesn't work if the <link> tags have ID attributes. So based on this blog post I created a very very simple (basically one-liner) plugin that removes the ID attribute using regex.

There is also a very simple unit test for it, created using wp-cli: wp scaffod plugin ....

Enjoy the speedy sites! :)

Installation

1. Unzip remove-css-link-ids.zip and upload unzipped folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
