arthurganem Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 My hosting does not support memcached module nor the cacheFS thing. So now i'm stuck with a slow site. My new solution is, hopefully works, is to use gzip compression. Im just wondering if i can just add the gzip function to the top of main page, index.php, or i would have to add that function to every single php and tpl file?

benjamin utterback Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Hello arthurganem, thank you for the message. What hosting provider are you using? In regards to the gzip compression, have you seen these tutorials? http://www.prestatraining.com/gzip-compression-browser-caching/ It may help you. Thank you so much for choosing PrestaShop!

arthurganem Posted September 5, 2012 Author Share Posted September 5, 2012 I am using hosting24.com and i tried setting up the caches, but their support staff told me their servers don't support it. They say they support regular cache (I dont know much about this so just quoting). Thanks for that tutorial exactly what I needed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Dalton Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 It sometimes helps to test if your server is compressing your pages. Numerous sites will check this for you, here is one, http://www.whatsmyip.org/http-compression-test/ If your pages are gzip great, if not you can try, Advanced Parameters > Performance Turn on - Apache optimization - This will add directives to your .htaccess file, which should improve caching and compression.

Bill Dalton Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Gzip compression must be enabled at your web server. You may need to contact your host. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
