Move included JavaScript tags to the bottom of HTML pages

      The Confluence's default theme contains most of the script in the html head section. This is a bad practice that unnecessary slows down loading of Confluence pages.

      Significant performance improvement can be achieved by simply moving the script tags to the bottom of the main template.

      This is currently not possible because #requireResource macro always renders the javascript tag in the head section.

            Hi Tim,

            We are actually taking this out in Confluence 5.0 and a team is going to address front end performance in general for the next release.

            Any chance, that this issue will be addressed again? Confluence 5? Page loading times are very modest to put it kindly.

            Yes, it is mostly due to plugin compatibility

            Can you provide more details about the reasoning? Are there known issues in Confluence that prevent you from making this the default? Is it more about plugin compatibility? Something else?

            thanks

            It has been decided that scripts will still be served in the header by default for 3.1 and a setting to serve it at the bottom will be provided. It is likely that we will enable this mode on by default for the following release, 3.2.
