Need to move stylesheets to head rather than footer

[Alicia St Rose]

Hi, I’m trying to validate my site as best I can, but I’m getting a validation error:
” Element link is missing required attribute property.” for the line where the stylesheets are added in the footer.
I found a solution on Stackoverflow which involves moving styles to the head. Anyway I can do that?

Hi Alicia,

Stylesheets are loaded in the footer for performance reasons (i.e. they are only loaded when they are needed, and to know if they are needed, the plug-in needs to wait until the page’s mark-up has been generated). As such, I’d recommend just ignoring the invalidation error.

However, if you do want to avoid stylesheets in the footer, you can disable the plug-in’s CSS (from general options) and then copy the contents of /css/eventorganiser-front-end.css (see https://github.com/stephenharris/Event-Organiser/blob/2.3.2/css/eventorganiser-front-end.css) and copy it into your theme’s style.css.

I’d rather have better performance! Ignore, I shall!

Thanks for a well thought out plugin!
