## Beschrijving

Often when trying to optimize the Google Pagespeed score, there is one script which
still causing the ‘Leverage browser caching’ rule popping up: Google’s own gtag.
js and/or analytics.js file…

With this plugin you will be able to cache this file on your local server and enable
browser caching for longer than 2 hours. The plugin will check every day if there
is a newer version of the file to keep the cache up to date.

## Installatie

Installation is very easy;

 1. Upload the plugin directory `cache-external-scripts` to the `/wp-content/plugins/`
    directory or install it directly from the WordPress plugin directory.
 2. De plugin activeren via het ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Once the external script is cached by the plugin, it will automatically replace
    the url in your current Google Analytics code (meaning you can use your current
    Google Analytics plugin).

## FAQ

  I have installed the plugin, but I can’t find the Google Analytics code in the
page source code

This plugin only caches the script and replaces it in your **current** Analytics
code, containing ‘gtag.js’, ‘analytics.js’ or the older ‘ga.js’ script.
 We chose
not to insert the Analytics code itself because there are tons of plugins for that
already, and some users require modifications in the code.

  How can I check if the Analytics code is properly cached

We store the cached file in the wordpress `uploads` directory, in the folder called`
cached-scripts`. If this folder doesn’t exist or is empty, please visit the settings
page of the plugin to manually fetch the script.
