What AMP Wordpress Plugins Are You Using?

[edgarf76]

Hope all is well with everybody. I am looking for the best AMP plugin for one of my sites. I am not sure which one to go with. Can anyone please let me know which ones you have had success with?

I've used a few before, not anymore though. I believe most themes add support for the official amp plugin which is the one made by "AMP Project Contributors".

Few issues I ran into were, broken links, missing images, weird fonts, misaligned text, broken scripts and so on. Because AMP wants to deliver the very basic code of what the pages are about, if you have advanced stuff like tables with sorting or anything of that sort, it might not work.

But yah, if none of this applies to you, I'll just go with the official one.

I suggest you to check again as seems AMP is dead or soon to be.

I removed it on a couple sites. I read some threads on wordpress org that were negative about amp as well.

I removed it three years ago. It's only good for the news sites.

It's another G disaster, in a long line of them. As long as you site is mobile compatible, isn't bogged down with bloated coding/plugins, and adheres to clean code etc., etc., then you'll be fine.

Yes, if anyone removes the plugin make sure you enter code in the regex redirect below before you disable the plugin. This will redirect all pages that end in /amp/ sitewide.

/(.*)\/amp

My theme recommends me to install a plugin called - AMP yeah, it's his title with 500,000+ installations. But I didn't and I'm sure that with tech optimization and a clean theme, I don't need to install it at all. Of course, it's your decision.

I no longer use AMP on my sites cause it has more disadvantages than benefits.

Yep, agreed. I disabled them from most sites and have been getting much better mobile results.
