Keep in mind that async/defered will not work if your JS files have dependencies (ie: a jquery plugin needs jquery to be loaded first). The plugin I wrote could use some modernization (ie: determine if it can run pure async without doing head.js).

Though nowadays, minimizing all of your scripts into a single file or even embedding directly into your page can be more performant than going async.

For those who prefer a non-plugin solution, this guy's post / code is working perfectly for me:

@Phil The solution in the link worked. But instead of the js handle, had to mention the actual js name. It added the "async" attribute to the js script tag.

@Phil

Got the same error here when downloading and using that plugin. No idea if it will be fixed, but a core implementation would be the way around..

I am reading...

Since Version 4.1 a new filter has been introduced that finally provides a less painful solution to add async or defer attributes...

===================

Installed the plugin, seems to be working - although PSI now reckons head.js is blocking ? correct ? should I expect this ?

Remove render-blocking JavaScript:
/aynnchronous-javascript/js/head.load.min.js
