    Firstly, I would like to start by saying that this is a great plugin, but unfortunately we have noticed some negative effects on page speed, after setting up this plugin.

    We appreciate that this plugin will affect the page loading speed to some degree, but the LCP has increased by 2 seconds, and script.js is being flagged as render blocking, adding a second to the website page loading time.

    We also use the Autoptimize plugin, and have tried different configurations in there, to try and improve the page load score.

    At the moment, we have had to temporarily disable this plugin, due to the negative effect that it has on LCP, and overall page load time.

    Would anyone else that may have faced similar issues, have any suggestions or ideas, on how we could improve the LCP & render blocking JS issue, that we face with this plugin?

    Kind Regards,

    Andy

  • Hi @andrew1977 I’m having the same issue with different websites. How did you resolve your issue?

    Hello!

    I have the same problem. Unfortunately, no matter what I try, it doesn’t bring significant improvement.

    Hi, I’m very interested in the solution to this High LCP & Render Blocking JS problem. Could you please share the solution, as it has been causing ongoing issues with website speed optimization?

    me too had the same problem

    I ended up transitioning to another CMP that’s better performing. CY seems to add too much script bloat.

    I have the same issue as well. A high LCP, the largest contentful paint element on the page is the CookieYes bar. I made the text shorter and it went from 12 seconds to 8 seconds. But still 8 seconds, mainly the rendering delay of matters is too much.

    Complianz Cookie banner recommends setting a fixed width with something like

    @media (max-width: 425px)
    .cmplz-cookiebanner .cmplz-message {
    margin-right: 5px;
    height: 80px;
    /* overflow: scroll; */
    }

    Perhaps setting matters this way but with adjusted CSS avoid lots of rendering.

    I managed to decrease the impact of CookieYes on PageSpeed in two steps.

    1. Make it not being the LCP, i.e. make it smaller. My stats show, that less than 1% of the visitors chose to customize the cookie consent, so I got rid of that button. Also cut down the text to bare minimum.
    2. Eliminate the script.js from Render Blocking resources. I use Flying Scripts plugin on all my websites to delay loading various JS files (cookies, Google tags, tracking scripts, chatbots etc.) at least 3s after the initial page load. It doesn’t impact user experience, but all those scripts do not count as render blocking anymore.

    @fotoduda , thanks for the recommendations!

    I wasn’t familiar with the Flying Scripts plugin, but it looks pretty good.
