Hi,
No problem at all!
Joomla automatically adds the version hash (for example, ?7a8061) to asset URLs loaded through its Asset Manager. This is intentional and helps browsers detect when a file has changed — it doesn’t block caching.
If you want to extend the cache expiration for these files, you can safely do so in your site’s .htaccess by adding:
ExpiresActive On ExpiresByType application/javascript "access plus 1 year"
Browsers will cache the file until Joomla changes the hash (which happens only when the file contents change).
So, even though you see the “?” in the URL, caching will still work correctly.
As for the PageSpeed warning about the missing alt attribute (public user avatar), this will be addressed in an upcoming update.
Best,
Lefteris
