Google PageSpedd and Leverage Browser Caching

Link to site so we can see what’s up?

I suspect what it is complaining about are third party items outside your website which W3 Total Cache can’t do anything about. On mine it complains about stuff from accuweather and Twitter which are widgets on my site which I have no control over, other than not using them.

Now, if it is indeed complaining about images on your website, you need to add something like the following to your .htaccess file (above the WordPress section):

<IfModule mod_expires.c>
          <FilesMatch "\.(jpe?g|png|gif|ico|js|css|woff)$">
                      ExpiresActive On
                      ExpiresDefault "access plus 2 month"
          </FilesMatch>
</IfModule>

This will cache most of the static items for 2 months. Might also contact your webhost to see if they can help.

Thanks for the answer. That’s what we have now, but some of our images are still as errors.

<IfModule mod_expires.c>
     ExpiresActive On
     ExpiresByType image/gif A14400
     ExpiresByType image/png A14400
     ExpiresByType image/jpg A14400
     ExpiresByType image/x-icon A14400
     ExpiresByType application/pdf A14400
     ExpiresByType application/x-javascript A14400
     ExpiresByType text/plain A14400
     ExpiresByType text/css A14400
</IfModule>

Without a link to your site, hard to verify what mime types and actual cache values are being sent in the response headers.

I ran the site listed in your profile through Google Page Insights and found no references to images on your site. Everything listed in the browser cache section were 3rd-party items. Were you possibly looking at the Optimize Images section which does list some at your site?

Specific image you have that isn’t being cached in case it’s on some post?

Sorry, I forgot.
My site es Econoblog.com.ar, but I’m not checking the index, I’m checking entries. e.g.: Talleres de ANSES sobre Retiro Laboral

Ok, I see it now. Looks like it’s complaining about them only being cached for 4 hours which is how long 14,400 seconds is.

Try this instead:

<IfModule mod_expires.c>
     ExpiresActive On
     ExpiresByType image/gif "access plus 1 month"
     ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 1 month"
     ExpiresByType image/jpg "access plus 1 month"
     ExpiresByType image/x-icon "access plus 1 month"
     ExpiresByType application/pdf "access plus 1 month"
     ExpiresByType application/x-javascript "access plus 1 month"
     ExpiresByType text/plain "access plus 1 month"
     ExpiresByType text/css "access plus 1 month"
</IfModule> 

MarkRH, we used 4 hours because that’s what Google sugested. I’ll try that. Thanks.

MarkRH, thanks for your answer.
I tried your code, but nothing changed. Google SpeedPage still says there are images in my page that are not being cached:

…ent/themes/leaf/images/EconoCabecera.jpg (4 horas)
…p-content/themes/leaf/images/body-BG.png (4 horas)
…ntent/themes/leaf/images/mobile-menu.png (4 horas)
…ent/themes/leaf/images/scroll-to-top.png (4 horas)
…tent/themes/leaf/images/transparente.gif (4 horas)
…des/js/wp-emoji-release.min.js?ver=4.7.3 (4 horas)

Any idea?
Thanks.
