Split CSS in submodules and aggregate them with PHP or a precompiler

I'm working on improving a Wordpress Theme. The CSS file is long 41500 lines, of which many selectors are not used, and nowaday Google has become very strict on waste of resources (old smartphones with 3G is the target).



enter image description here



By reading the CSS code I've realized that there is just on huge CSS for all the styles which can be chosen in the backend Admin section of the theme:



/* -------------------------------------------------------------------

  Style 1

----------------------------------------------------------------------  */


How should I proceed? I've read of Grunt, Webpack but I don't know them. Any suggestion?






php css optimization

  • No, they are useful but speak of how to find the unused css. Not how to split the CSS in modules.

What visual should I use to simply compare current year value vs last year in Power BI desktop

Image
0 I have column SubToBind that shows current year ratio and column PY SubToBind which shows previous year ratio. How can I simply create a card that would be displaying them both in a nice way? Something like that: I cannot achieve that with regular card, I also tried Card with States by OKViz but also unable to see both values. In KPI visual - I dont like the word "Goal", it will confuse end users. Are there any cards or other visuals that would do the job?
