• I downloaded this plugin this afternoon and it did speed up – I then went to add a code to the htaccess file (this one below)and when I went back to the website it had broken – I think a 505 error or some such – I then went to delete this text from htacess but this did not resolve the problem. I was unable to get into the backend of WordPress and so tried to delete the plugin but I actually deleted the plugin rather than just renaming it. I’ve got into a complete mess and it looks like the website is now ruined. I since added some basic htacess code and it will list the directories but that is about it. We have a back up from December but there was quite a few changes/posts since then – any help you can provide would be much appreciated.
