Front-End Optimization: Enable Resource Delivery Via CDN
The Front-End Optimization: Enable Resource Delivery Via CDN advanced setting enables additional optimization of the website performance by having any CSS or Javascript resources that are referenced on all pages to be served from https://www.optimizecdn.com.
If set to OFF, the system will use relative paths from the domain, but if turned ON it speeds up the delivery of resources vs. the relative path of the domain name.
To activate the setting go to Settings > Advanced Settings:

This is a recently added update to our software, for which we added code to the following default widgets:
- Bootstrap Theme - HEAD
- Bootstrap Theme - Footer - Scripts
- Bootstrap Theme - Footer - Scripts - User Search Scripts

And the setting will display a warning indication which of these widgets need to be updated or disabled:
To fix this, there are a couple of options:
1. Disable the custom widgets that are indicated in the warning message.
2. Keep your custom widget, making sure to include the brilliantDirectories::cdnUrl() code, by comparing the custom and default widgets and adding it in the right section.
