All the CSS files were successfully combined to one single file. But JavaScript files are not combined. Here is my site qnimate.com
Please let me know how to solve it.
]]>There’s a very basic flaw in this plugin that can result in scripts being loaded all over the page multiple times. Instead of speeding up page load it’s likely to significantly increase load times.
It is also flawed in that it takes no account of a script’s desired location (i.e. at the top of the page or the bottom) and it completely ignores dependencies when external scripts are involved.
It’s likely to break lots of other plugins.
]]>Hello,
The plugin reduced 100kb from my page load, thats a lot. But unfortunately the plugin popupdomination stops showing div popups after the plugin is activated.
Thanks,

]]>Hi Edward,
Thanks for developing Scripts Gzip. – I just gave it a test-run on one of my WP installations and the results look very promising.
After the integration I used WebPagetest to verify the improvements. Your plugin did a good job on minifying the JavaScript files though on the re-run that WebPagetest conducts to check for browser caching, I noticed that all requests were executed again.
Looking at the headers I figured that no data was transfered because you’ve defined a 304. Nevertheless the files won’t get cached (I might be wrong at that point) since the expiry is always in the past if the most recent change on every file in the ‘stack’ is longer ago than current time minus expiry.
So I’ve changed $filetime in $expires = gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s', $fileTime+$options['file_expires']) . ' GMT'; to time().
Here’s a dump of my received headers (domain has been removed):

I also added the following line for the cache control:
header('Cache-Control: max-age='.$options['file_expires'].', public');
What do you think?
Another idea: Could you maybe add filters for the expiry time and the blacklist? – That way you gain flexibility and your users don’t have to edit the php-files on updates.
A last question: Since I don’t have more than one css-file on that particular website (and doing gzip in .htaccess anyway) I want to use your plugin solely for js-files. Is there an easy way to comment out a certain line to disable picking up and combining css-files while not breaking your plugin?
Cheers,
Berny
W3TC caused my JS to not function
WP JS/CSS can’t get at the JS/CSS inserted by plugins/includes
Script Compressor the same as WP JS/CSS
Yours, I activate, refresh, and I’ve gone from 19 script related HTTP requests to 2. Everything on the page working correctly.
Awesome.
Thanks!
