PS 1.6.1.4. Leverage browser caching

[dzinno]

Hi guys, 

 

i have done a website check on gtmetrics: https://gtmetrix.com/reports/najzoo.sk/KmRPpYQv

 

And i see that my web has a grade F on Leverage browser caching. Most of the points have - expiration not specified. 
 
Can you please help me with that? How to achieve a better score?

Thank you

Have you enabled CCC > Apache optimization under Advanced Parametres > Performance?

I did it now. Thank you for advice. 

Have a nice day

I am experiencing same issue, and CCC+Apache optimization enabled. What is it exactly Apache optimization? Maybe I have some modules not installed on my server?

Or any other hints please?

Cheers

Hello,

no replies but I hope someone is able to help with more details below.

My server runs Apache under Nginx as reverse proxy and I have both expires mod enabled in Apache and

 

location ~* \.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif|ico|css|js)$ {

expires 365d;}

set in Nginx.

But, GTmetrix, Pingdom and Google Pagespeed all still suggest to leverage browser caching

What am I doing wrong?

Cheers

M

I'm not sure if this will help, but here's what's in my .htaccess file for the expiry dates:

<IfModule mod_expires.c>
    ExpiresActive On
    ExpiresByType image/gif "access plus 1 month"
    ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access plus 1 month"
    ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 1 month"
    ExpiresByType text/css "access plus 1 week"
    ExpiresByType text/javascript "access plus 1 week"
    ExpiresByType application/javascript "access plus 1 week"
    ExpiresByType application/x-javascript "access plus 1 week"
    ExpiresByType image/x-icon "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType image/svg+xml "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType image/vnd.microsoft.icon "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType application/font-woff "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType application/font-woff2 "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType application/x-font-woff "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType application/vnd.ms-fontobject "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType font/opentype "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType font/ttf "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType font/otf "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType application/x-font-ttf "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType application/x-font-otf "access plus 1 year"
</IfModule>

Thank you very much for repyling Rocky.

My htaccess bears the following which looks to me exactly the same:

<IfModule mod_expires.c>
    ExpiresActive On
    ExpiresByType image/gif "access plus 1 month"
    ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access plus 1 month"
    ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 1 month"
    ExpiresByType text/css "access plus 1 week"
    ExpiresByType text/javascript "access plus 1 week"
    ExpiresByType application/javascript "access plus 1 week"
    ExpiresByType application/x-javascript "access plus 1 week"
    ExpiresByType image/x-icon "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType image/svg+xml "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType image/vnd.microsoft.icon "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType application/font-woff "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType application/x-font-woff "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType application/vnd.ms-fontobject "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType font/opentype "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType font/ttf "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType font/otf "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType application/x-font-ttf "access plus 1 year"
    ExpiresByType application/x-font-otf "access plus 1 year"
</IfModule>

You shouldn't be getting any "expiration not specified" messages with those lines.

Yep, that's why I don't understand what happens :S
