First of all: I’m really blown away by this plugin. It’s like having several great plugins all in one. And so far it works great on multiple sites.

My only problem — and it’s not so much a problem as a last detail to be refined — is that after installing and configuring W3 Total Cache I *almost* receive straight As from YSlow.. except for an E in “compress components for gzip” and and F for “Add Expires headers.”

After a little research, it appears that this has something to do with using Amazon CloudFront for my CDN. I don’t know how to address the “Add Expires headers” bit, but I found this guide for enabling gzip for Amazon Content:

https://internetmarketingbyme.com/74/gzip-compression-using-amazon-s3-cloudfront-cdn/

But I’d rather have this all managed by W3 Total Cache.

So my question is: Are you planning on addressing the issues of gzip and entity tags with Amazon CloudFront anytime soon? I would assume it’s already in your road map, I’m just wondering if I should attempt the above linked process for enabling gzip on my sites or wait for an upcoming update of W3 Total Cache.

Also, please correct me if I’ve misunderstood anything here (which is quite possible).

Thank you again for this awesome plugin.

The resources are the theme files stored in my cdn which in my case is the sub-domain https://images.strictlyonlinebiz.com

In that case, you need to put the .htaccess file in the document root of that domain.

This is a known issue and is scheduled to be added to the next release. RackSpace Cloud Files has the same issue and I’m addressing them at once. I can’t specify a timeline right now, but the implementation for compression and headers is a bit more involved than you may think.

Just wanted to add my voice of support for this feature on a future release. Specifically for Amazon CloudFront. I was a big fan of RackSpace Cloud Files but they have some serious issues and thanks to this plugin I was able to move away from Cloud Files to CloudFront.

Understood. I’m doing more work with origin push providers this release.

i added the following to my htaccess
```
# 1 YEAR
<FilesMatch "\.(flv|ico|pdf|avi|mov|ppt|doc|mp3|wmv|wav)$">
Header set Cache-Control "max-age=29030400, public"
</FilesMatch>

# 1 WEEK
<FilesMatch "\.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif|swf)$">
Header set Cache-Control "max-age=604800, public"
</FilesMatch>

# 3 HOUR
<FilesMatch "\.(txt|xml|js|css)$">
Header set Cache-Control "max-age=10800"
</FilesMatch>

# NEVER CACHE
<FilesMatch "\.(html|htm|php|cgi|pl)$">
Header set Cache-Control "max-age=0, private, no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate"
</FilesMatch>
```
however it still shows all of these in the leverage browser caching

I have spent countless hours on this cause godaddy sucks so dang much that everything on their servers is disabled. I cannot use mod_expires but they said i can use mod_headers however the htaccess code will not work. I have WP total cache running and its not doing it for me im so frustrated ??

You cannot modify the headers for files you do not host.

The following cacheable resources have a short freshness lifetime. Specify an expiration at least one week in the future for the following resources:
Can you tell me what to put in my .htaccess file to resolve this?
All of the resources are located in the /wordpress/wp-content/themes/magazine-basic/images/ folder.

Being a newbie I don’t quite get HOW to accomplish setting the expiration. Not sure if I need another .htaccess for the images folder or add something to the one in my root?

Thank you

For images etc, you can go to the browser cache settings tab and enable the options there and modify the expires value to obtain the result you want. W3TC will update your .htaccess file for you or provide the code to add in a notification.
