WordPress or in general another PHP site? A few days ago we showed you the Results of speedtests of iGuRu.gr at GTMetix. The score you saw is the result of hard work and long hours coding.
Below we will describe the steps to minimize WordPress files and generally any PHP site.
We will need minify framework by Google Code.
Download the Google Minify Framework. After downloading, we'll have to see where we will place it. According to the company:
Performing HTML, Inline JavaScript and Inline CSS: we can place the minify PHP framework anywhere ie inside or outside docroot.
In our case we can put it in iguru.gr/min/ in / that is where the WordPress software is, but in the min folder. The zip already includes a min folder.
So upload with ftp from the file minify-
The Minify PHP function iguru_minify_html is capable for minimization (minifying) HTML, inline JavaScript, and inline to CSS using minify PHP framework.
Below you need to change the point where you put the script
function iguru_minify_html ($buffer) { if (is_user_logged_in()) { $buffer .= ""; return $buffer; // for logged in users minify is not required } else { $initial = strlen($buffer); $minify_lib_path = '/srv/www/iguru.gr/min'; // use your own path, where you put the minify framework if (!class_exists('Minify_HTML')) { // Line no. 10 & 11 is only applicable to minify v2.1.7 require("$minify_lib_path/lib/Minify/Loader.php"); Minify_Loader::register(); require_once("$minify_lib_path/lib/Minify/HTML.php"); ini_set('include_path', ini_get('include_path').":$minify_lib_path/lib"); require_once("$minify_lib_path/lib/Minify/CSS.php"); require_once("$minify_lib_path/lib/JSMin.php"); } // Calling minify function with HTML content $buffer = Minify_HTML::minify($buffer, array('cssMinifier' => array('Minify_CSS', 'minify'), 'jsMinifier' => array('JSMin', ' minify'))); $final = strlen($buffer); $savings = round((($initial-$final)/$initial*100), 3); $buffer .= ""; return $buffer; } }
And now we can move on, using the above minify mode in WordPress or whatever application PHP.
Place the above function inside functions.php and you're ready.
You can try your GTMetix page to see the results.
Let's say that for better and better results you should find someone special. IGuRu.gr does not undertake service in case something goes wrong with the above code.
Use it at your own risk.
