In reply to: WordPress for client Question@christosg, you should also consider licensing terms of premium theme you purchased. It may or may not allow you to use the theme more than website or client. In this case you or your friend needs to purchase another license.

In reply to: Stop updatingI agree with @dpope0824, not every feature added seems to have positive impact on general population of users. Although staying in an old version is an option, it is not always possible, because of consumer/customer demand of upgrade to latest and newest.
@mickmel, you are right, this is an open source project, and we should contribute. However not all of us are PHP developers. Maybe a more transparent management/methodology of new features would be beneficial for all of us.

In reply to: WordPress MEAN StackI know that adding support to a no sql would be a very labor-intensive work, but it really helps many developers. Isn’t it possible to add future targets?
IMHO, if you are not experienced, you could also start with demo content provided by theme developer and start to change it bit by bit, until you learn inner workings of the theme.
To ease learning process, while changing it, try to do things different than demo content with small steps and read the doc how to make this small change.

In reply to: [Autoptimize] Zero Lenght File with CSS optimizationThank you for your effort.
For your F.A.Q.
I added that line to header.php and some themes have header-xxx.php where xxx is several types of header files. One should add the line below all of the header files and add his/her theme name instead of [THEME FOLDER HERE]
<link rel=”stylesheet” href=”<?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_directory’); ?>/../[THEME FOLDER HERE]/style.css” type=”text/css” />

In reply to: [Autoptimize] Zero Lenght File with CSS optimizationDear futtta,
Since I don’t know PHP I cannot test autoptimizeStyles.php.
I tested 1.7.2, and unfortunately 1.7.2 does not solve zero-length problem on WPEngine.
Anyone else having same problem, here is my temporary solution:
I removed @import url(“../kickstart/style.css”); from CSS files and requested that file from PHP generated HTML files like:
<link rel=”stylesheet” href=”<?php bloginfo(‘stylesheet_directory’); ?>/../kickstart/style.css” type=”text/css” />
Although it is not a best practice for WordPress, autoptimize works well with this on wpengine. This problem doesn’t appear on other hosts, so I can live with that solution.

In reply to: [Autoptimize] Zero Lenght File with CSS optimizationI trapped the problem in one statement:
I use a child theme. In the child theme’s style.css I call parent theme’s style.css with following standard statement:
@import url(“../kickstart/style.css”);
If I delete @import statement, AO works as expected. This happens only on wpengine.com. In other host, this does not cause any problems.

In reply to: [Autoptimize] Zero Lenght File with CSS optimizationNo, there are 3 CSS.
2 of them is very short 25 Bytes and 71 bytes with contents below:
1. html{margin-top:28px !important}* html body{margin-top:28px !important}
2. #wpadminbar{display:none}Those are same in both working and non-working site. So I assume they created correctly.
Third one is zero byte, which should 150-200 KB according to working site.
Thank you for your kind help and for this great plugin.
Benchmarks based on my experiences:
For CSS, I have better results than I have with W3 Total cache. W3TC created more files/requests.
For JS AO created less files/requests than W3TC, but my site didn’t worked well with AO, but woked with W3TC. However I use Cloudflare for JS, because their rocketloader is fascinating.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Autoptimize] Zero Lenght File with CSS optimization1. I disabled AO on frotibase.com
2. I checked theme’s css permissions are 664On wpengine I temporarily switched to thirteen theme and AO worked for CSS. When I switch back to Kickstart theme it stopped working. But as I told you same theme works on other host.
