Hi @SeanDS

To change the TikTok script tag from async to defer, you will need to modify the code in the HTML file of your website.

Here are the steps you can follow:

  1. Find the code for the TikTok script tag in the HTML file. It will look something like this:

<script async src="[https://www.tiktok.com/embed.js](https://www.tiktok.com/embed.js)"></script>

  1. Change the async attribute to defer:

<script defer src="[https://www.tiktok.com/embed.js](https://www.tiktok.com/embed.js)"></script>

 
  1. Save the changes to the HTML file and upload it to your website.

That’s it! By changing the async attribute to defer, you are telling the browser to load the TikTok script after the rest of the HTML content has loaded, which can improve the performance of your website.

Hope this helps you.
