2 min read
WP CDNjs Reborn is back ???? to help you speed up your WordPress site by delivering your Libraries from CDNjs.

WordPress plugin | Git hub | Latest Git |
WP-page | Git | v0.2.4.zip |
Rationale
Most plugins come with their necessary embedded javascript libraries. Thus, they are served from your site, which can deliver a slow user experience if you host a lot of them.
A CDN will serve them the same, but faster.
It’s just another little boost your website page-load performance needs. If your visitors are using the CloudFlare/CDNjs files
their pages should load quicker, and as more and more people use the CDN, it’ll help everyone load their sites quicker!
Why CDNjs?
Everyone loves the Google CDN right? Even Microsoft runs a public CDN.
The problem is, they only host the most popular libraries.
They host all the popular libraries – JavaScript, CSS, SWF, images, etc!
Limitations
Only useful for those plugins that provide the option to disable their local libraries. [/well]

History of WP CDNjs Reborn
This is, as its name suggests:
- A fork from WP cdnjs by MindShare Studios,
- Which was itself a fork from WP Settings Framework by Gilbert Pellegrom,
- Which was itself a fork from WordPress Plugin Boilerplate by Christopher Lamm
As it was obviously not maintained anymore, and as the GPLv3 license allows me to do so, I forked it and revamped it.
choosing the version is a nice feature added, I will switch to this one. Thanks
