Hello, i use this amazing template for my very first joomla website (educational community) (btw when do you plan to update this great template for JomSocial 2.4.x , K2 2.5.x and kunena 1.7.x ). T3 framework has one great feature and it is the join&minify&compress. But i am confused exactly about this feature.

1) If i turn on join & minify & compress should i turn off joomla default gzip and joomla cache?

2) If i turn on joomla cache, joomla gzip and t3 framework join & minify and compress for css and .js files is everything gonna work fine? I am wondering if there is some kind of conflict with some of these features,

3) if everything in 2) works fine and i add in my .htaccess file this content is everything gonna work fine? I am wondering if i should disable the default joomla gzip and cache and t3 join & minify & compress feature if i add the following code. Please i need response from expert!

<IfModule mod_deflate.c>
<FilesMatch ".(ico|pdf|flv|jpg|jpeg|png|gif|js|css|swf)(.gz)?$">
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
Header set Expires "max-age=29030400, public"
Header unset ETag
FileETag None
</FilesMatch>
</IfModule>

<IfModule mod_expires.c>
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresDefault A600
ExpiresByType image/x-icon A2592000
ExpiresByType application/x-javascript A604800
ExpiresByType text/css A604800
ExpiresByType image/gif A2592000
ExpiresByType image/png A2592000
ExpiresByType image/jpeg A2592000

<blockquote>1) If i turn on join & minify & compress should i turn off joomla default gzip and joomla cache?</blockquote>
join : is combine / merging of css / js included on site into one js / css file.
minify
<blockquote>Minify CSS – Minify CSS. Minification is the practice of removing unnecessary characters from code to reduce its size, thus improving load times.</blockquote>
compress : It’s compress css / js. Actually compressing have lots of method ” math logic ” to do. Minify is one of it.

But all of above just like for “physical file / code” … and after that before sent to client web browser , if we have gzip all of these ( also text content ) will be compress again by gzip ! Browser will decompress it byself at client side.

So both of it will need to use .

<blockquote>2) If i turn on joomla cache, joomla gzip and t3 framework join & minify and compress for css and .js files is everything gonna work fine? I am wondering if there is some kind of conflict with some of these features,</blockquote>
By logic .. it’s fine. But depends on specific case ! Like: js conflict , css piority ..etc !

Yes fine. Actually it’s needed / suggested for optimizing !

Thank you,
