.htaccess

[Manol]

Hello.

    I'm trying to speed  a phone webpage by setting expires headers in the htaccess file like this:

... all processwire htaccess settings ....

#################################################################################################
# END PROCESSWIRE HTACCESS DIRECTIVES
#################################################################################################

</IfModule>


<IfModule mod_expires.c>

ExpiresActive On
ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 month"

ExpiresByType image/jpg "access plus 1 month"
ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access plus 1 month"
ExpiresByType image/gif "access plus 1 month"
ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 1 month"

ExpiresByType image/x-icon "access plus 1 year"

ExpiresByType text/css "access plus 2 months"
</IfModule>

but when I check my webpage whit YSlow I get the following results ( snapshot in the attached file):

Grade E on Add Expires headers

There are 4 static components without a far-future expiration date.

• (2013/6/11) http://patrimonio24.com/site/templates/css/style.css
• (2013/6/11) http://patrimonio24.com/site/templates/css/add2home.css
• (no expires) http://patrimonio24.com/site/templates/js/add2home.js
• (1981/11/19) http://patrimonio24.com/images/demo_content/metroentrance57.jpg

as you can see the .css files have a expire date of today not two months as intended and the forth has 1981 expire  date, when is supposed to be 1 month form access (today 2013/6/11).

I'm using a 1and dynamic cloud server centos 6.

Thanks in advance to everybody!

and, if not already done: check if module expire is available, (<IfModule mod_expires.c>) and IfNot it will do nothing.

Hello Willy.

Now I get different results form different tools as you can see below:

Page speed (http://gtmetrix.com/) -> Leverage browser caching is ok here:

YSlow  (http://gtmetrix.com/) -> Add expires headers here says:

YSlow (chrome plugin) -> Add expires headers, NOT OK

Hi Horst <IfModule mod_expires.c> is loaded.

Thanks

I'm wondering if YSlow/Chrome might be incorrect in this case. WillyC's htaccess looks right to me. You might need to clear your Chrome cache and restart it.

Thank you

Same here (at least for text/html)...
