As with other caching plugins, Slickstream needs to be excluded from Autoptimize optimization.  Here are instructions.

1.  Login to WordPress and click on Settings and then select Autoptimize.

2.  Select the JS, CSS & HTML tab and add the word slickstream in the Exclude scripts from Autoptimize textbox.  Use commas as needed to separate this entry from others that may already be listed.
