Hello boss, thanks for great plugin. Is there any suggestion why wouldn’t plugin work for our website? I checked if gzip is activ on https://checkgzipcompression.com/ and it says it is.

Or brotli is selected automatically. What would happen if are both this plugin and Cloudflare cdn brotli enabled?

Plugin now working at all.
There is no link to settings. I found this horror settings with one button “Enable GZIP”.
After clicking it, received message: “Gzip compression seems not to be working. Perhaps mod_deflate module is not active.”

Wasted time..

When I turned on the plugin, since that moment some CSS styles do not work. CSS styles from Wp bakery don’t work, CSS styles from Recent Posts plugins do not work. How Can I turned back to CSS settings for default before plugin. What Plugin is changing for CSS to return it back to default.

Hi, i’ve this problem (mod_deflate is enabled in apache):

Gzip compression seems not to be working. Perhaps mod_deflate module is not active.

my .htaccess:

<IfModule mod_deflate.c>
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/text text/html text/plain text/xml text/css application/x-javascript application/javascript
</IfModule>
# BEGIN Enable Gzip Compression
# The directives (lines) between BEGIN Enable Gzip Compression and END Enable Gzip Compression are
# dynamically generated, and should only be modified via WordPress filters.
# Any changes to the directives between these markers will be overwritten.
# END Enable Gzip Compression

Hello and thanks for the plugin.
However unfortunately it did not work on wordpress 5.3.2 with a site hosted by strato for me. I checked the gzip compression after installing and activating the plugin via https://www.giftofspeed.com/gzip-test/. Gzip compression was still turned off. After modifying my .htaccess by three lines
<IfModule mod_deflate.c>
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
</IfModule>
gzip compression worked. But this was not an effect of the plugin. So I removed the plugin from my site. Btw should the plugin work by modifying the .htaccess? I would like to use the plugin, which can save me time of modifying .htaccess files.

When I try to enable plugin I get following message: The site is experiencing technical difficulties.

When I check debug logs I have following:
PHP Fatal error: Cannot use object of type WP_Error as array in /var/www/…/wp-content/plugins/enable-gzip-compression/compression-module.php on line 77, referer: https://…/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=gzip-compression

If the plugin is used on a site which hosted on a LEMP stack and uses NGNIX, then it would not make any changes.

Hello, oddly if I enable gzip compression for the website and I go to gtmetrix it effectively reports it as enabled, but after some time not sure why gtmetrix reports it as disabled, though in the plugin interface is enabled. When this happens if I disable and re-enable gzip compression it is reported as enabled again by gtmetrix.

Will this plugin support the actual WordPress version 5.1? Actually it’s only tested up to 5.0.3.

Kind regards
