    Hello Themeco-Team,

    I`ve made a huge mess. I tried to optimize my page since Google PageSpeed Insights asked me to enable browser caching.
    I found an online article and inserted in the htaccess at the end the following code:

    ## EXPIRES CACHING ##
<IfModule mod_expires.c>
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresByType image/jpg "access 1 year"
ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access 1 year"
ExpiresByType image/gif "access 1 year"
ExpiresByType image/png "access 1 year"
ExpiresByType text/css "access 1 month"
ExpiresByType application/pdf "access 1 month"
ExpiresByType text/x-javascript "access 1 month"
ExpiresByType application/x-shockwave-flash "access 1 month"
ExpiresByType image/x-icon "access 1 year"
ExpiresDefault "access 2 days"
</IfModule>
## EXPIRES CACHING ##

<filesMatch "\\.(js|js.gz)$">
Header set Cache-Control "max-age=604800, private"
</filesMatch>

    Now my rating went down dramatically since Google is complaining the compression should be activated (for gzip and deflate).
    In advance I made a copy of the original htaccess and now uploaded this original, but it is still not working. I think I deactivated something in the X-Theme?!? How can I change back to the orignial state and reactivate the compression?

    I really hope you can help me solve this issue.

    Hi there,

    You should install optimization plugin, they will compress and will provide GZIP encoding for the served files. You can try Autoptimize or W3 Total cache.

    Thanks!
