Code bloat from slider plugin

CMS & WordPress
1

Hi,
I have just noticed in the source code of my page… header styles and js about the size of ‘War & Peace’.
Does this present a problem for search engines?

Any help appreciated.

The CSS and JavaScript should be in separate files rather than embedded in the HTML. Also the JavaScript should be attached just before the </body> tag and not in the <head>

Unfortunately, that’s WordPress.

A lot of plugins “inject” their CSS and JavaScript into the HTML instead of putting a link to a file into the HTML.

I don’t know if it could be done a different way, but if it can be it would be up to the plugin authors to write their plugins to do differently or a site owner to hack the plugin’s code.

Thanks, short of re-writing the plugin code, would this code structure be considered obstructive to search engines.
