GZIP not being recognized by Word press

[gzip_kompressor]

Hello everyone,

I Google a lot before trying ot start a new thread to address a problem. Yet I'm failing to fix this issue.

I'm trying to install a Wordpress Theme but it keeps on complaining I don't have GZIP enabled even though I carried on which indicates it's up and running.

I've tried enabling it via nginix, htacess, php yet nothing is working. I'm running out of ideas :(

Kindly view my detailed stackoverflow question:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/312 ... ot-enabled

They say other there "static server space" isn't give to us by VESTA. Is this true?

I'm on ubuntu VPS

Replace current the gzip_types (In nginx.conf) with this:

Code: Select all

text/plain text/css application/json application/javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript image/svg+xml application/x-font-ttf font/opentype;

restart nginx and try again

Trying it now. I did have similar config in nginx.conf but I replaced it with your regardless.

Just confirm, I edited the ngnix.conf in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

I've did a fresh install of Wordpress through Installatron.

My ngnix.conf after adding your snippet.

Now in that one, I'm going to add your snippet and see if it works. I'm choosing this is because it has VESTA in it. So I'm assuming VESTA is using this ngnix.conf config to run the true nginx service. It had the stock gzip-types and now I have added the snippet to give me the following ngnix.conf

Update

Still it's saying

Your server doesn't support file compression (GZIP)

[skurudo]

Mmm... If your server has mod_deflate enabled, add this to the top of either your root .htaccess file or your WordPress .htaccess file:

Code: Select all

<IfModule mod_deflate.c>
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/plain text/xml text/css application/x-javascript
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4 gzip-only-text/html
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4\.0[678] no-gzip
BrowserMatch \bMSIE !no-gzip !gzip-only-text/html
</IfModule>

To enable mod_deflate from console:

Code: Select all

a2enmod deflate

and restart apache2

[gzip_kompressor]

Mmm... If your server has mod_deflate enabled, add this to the top of either your root .htaccess file or your WordPress .htaccess file:

Code: Select all

<IfModule mod_deflate.c>
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/plain text/xml text/css application/x-javascript
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4 gzip-only-text/html
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4\.0[678] no-gzip
BrowserMatch \bMSIE !no-gzip !gzip-only-text/html
</IfModule>

To enable mod_deflate from console:

Code: Select all

a2enmod deflate

and restart apache2

So I went to

Code: Select all

ftp://[USERNAME_A]@[IP_ADDRESS]/public_html/wp-includes/.htaccess

Added the code you posted.

Now did SSH

Code: Select all

ssh root@[IP_ADDRESS]

Ran the following commands:-

Code: Select all

~# a2enmod deflate
Considering dependency filter for deflate:
Module filter already enabled
Module deflate already enabled

Code: Select all

Restarted Apache2
~# sudo service apache2 restart
 * Restarting web server apache2                                         [ OK ]

Still it's saying Gzip installation not detected.

Do you think there could be problem with the different number of usernames? like the wordpress directory is under username_a and not under say root? Does it effect anything?

I've abandon this.

Ok, as you wish.
