Gzip Compression not working for Apache
-
After following another thread about this exact same issue, I was asked to start a new thread (about this exact same issue).
At the recommendation of Nastia for another user, I did talk to my host GoDaddy about the Apache deflate module and they asked me to put the following in the .htaccess together with the Gzip script from Hummingbird:
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/text text/html text/plain text/xml text/css application/x-javascript application/javascript
My site is https://www.Unboundedlife.com as well as https://www.ginkgosociety.org (same hosting on GoDaddy Apache server) and my .htaccess is as follows:
RewriteOptions inherit
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WP-HUMMINGBIRD-CACHING—
I have tried all the previous recommendations including starting and restarting the module, creating a line in the php.ini file. All failed to resolve.
I have 4 Wp sites and more coming that I want to upgrade to Hummingbird Pro, but not until this basic Gzip functionality can work in the free version.
Thank you,
