## Description

commonWP is a plugin that enables usage of free, public CDN ([jsDelivr](https://www.jsdelivr.com/))
for open source JavaScript and CSS files. Those files are:

 * All files from WordPress core, unless development version of WordPress is used.
 * All files from plugins hosted by WordPress.org Plugins Repository, unless author
   of specific plugin doesn’t use [SVN tags for releasing](https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-org/how-to-use-subversion/#tagging-new-versions).
 * All files from themes hosted by WordPress.org Themes Repository.
 * All files from plugins and themes hosted on [GitHub](https://github.com/) that
   support [GitHub Updater](https://github.com/afragen/github-updater).
 * All files marked as available on [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/) in any type of
   theme, plugin, or MU plugin.

It aims to be both lightweight and very secure. The approach used in this plugin
is safer then in any other plugin that enables usage of any CDN. First, commonWP
will only rewrite file to point to one on jsDelivr if that remote file is identical
to local one. Second, during comparison, it generates [subresource identity hash](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Subresource_Integrity)
of remote jsDelivr file and includes that hash in page’s source code so browser 
won’t load remote file if it doesn’t have exactly the same hash.

There are no any settings. After activation, it will fill up its cache in the background,
and that may take some time depending on number of resources site uses.

 [mesmer7](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mesmer7/) September 22, 2019 1 reply

When I first installed CommmonWP, it made a mess of my style sheet. I had to disable
the AutOptimize setting, “Aggregate CSS-files”, to make the plugins work together.
Unfortunately, that doubled the number of HTTP requests, which added 1 whole second
to the page load time.
