Consider combining the CSS and js files

Candle FOREX 11 years ago 0
Would the makers of Sharexy consider:

(1) Combining the CSS and js files involved for the sharexy plugin.
This will speed up the plugin a lot and reduce http requests, making the over all website faster.

(2) Add an expiration date at least 2 weeks (edit the htaccess on your server).

Example:
# Set up caching on plugin files for 1 year
<FilesMatch "\.(css|png|jpg|jpeg|js)$">
ExpiresDefault A29030400
Header append Cache-Control "public"
</FilesMatch>
These two suggestions above are very easy to do, especially (2) which can be done in 5 mins.

Suggestion (1) takes a bit more work, but not more than 2 or 3 hours.

Making these changes will speed up your plugin, the websites the plugins run on, saves Sharexy bandwith and allows Sharexy to serve more instances of the png and js files faster with the same resources.
