Does your plugin pre-compress files?

    I have gzip enabled at the nginx level:

    gzip on;
    gzip_static on;

    I am wondering if your plugin will pre-compress ‘htm|html|css|js’ files? Because right now, nginx does it on the fly.

    I am looking for a plugin that will take advantage of gzip_static in nginx, that will auto-server the *.gz files.

    Can this plugin do that? And will it know to recreate the *.gz files when the original uncompressed version changes?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi agitkid,

    I’m afraid not. We mainly focus on the checking of gzip compression. Furthermore, when enabled through our plugin, this is done on php level. So not on server level. I would suggest if you have the knowledge to use server level compression because that is more fail safe.
    I don’t know much about ngix, but I suspect you should work with expire headers. Might be possible in the w3 total cache plugin.
    Good luck!
