I'd like to know if there is any way how to automatically remove CSS which is useless?
For example some Genesis Child theme had custom CSS but I override it with my custom CSS.
How to remove this old CSS?
I'm trying to make my website as fast as possible.

I'm using caching plugin for faster website loading, but caching plugins won't remove old CSS. Just minify it. Correct me, if I'm wrong 🙂

Any suggestions appreciated.

The is no way to automatically delete unused CSS. Edit style.css and remove the code manually.

The idea that this will allow your website to load faster is dubious at best. You may save 1/100th of a millisecond? CSS is not usually a cause of slow website loads. I think you're looking in the wrong area if your site is slow.
