XF 2 Tip Ultimate Guide to Faster + Responsive Forum [Minify+Htaccess+Cache+Phone+FA5]

[Cumminator]

I have tested this on my one forum in litespeed enterprize and it works along with litespeed cache!


But my main forum is in openlitespeed/cyberpanel which has limited functionality of htaccess (basically only supports rewrite rules).. I wonder if this https://controlc.com/71ba05e9 can be recreated from the web admin or elsewhere in openlitespeed!

Cumminatoropenlitespeed need restart after add new .htaccess

 

[Cumminator]

I use the free openlitespeed with no support .. I have searched thoroughly but couldn't find anything useful to replicate 100% of this htaccess

Cumminatorthe reason i use OLS because i get 30msconnect+50msbackend = 70 to 80ms TTFB on average.. its so fast with the redis and litespeed cache.. it even became faster with the steps here. but i belive that htaccess browser cache can save more servers and users resources

I have installed and ran TH image optimizer using pngquant, jpegoptim and gifsicle. (gifsicle didnt work). I have done this completely by running it for 48+ hours but in my file manager storage did not free'd up, it is same as before.

Cumminatoryou should be able to check the progress of it in your logs. if its not working you can run it manually in the rebuild caches section.

Cumminator[TL] Image optimizer

Themehouse is basically shutting down their services for Xenforo. https://www.themehouse.com/blog/themehouse-product-subscription-update

I use this and it works just fine

Pr0fesseurI want to know the configuration bro. Cuz I have install jpegoptim, pngquant and gifsicle from apt-get install in ubuntu 20.04 without any error. Do I need to do something extra with TL image addon? I mean setting the path, I didn't had to in the TH addon.

I saw that too ,. TH is getting rid of xenforo... I wonder why, their message was not so clear. They could have expand and do other projects alongside xenforo..

 

[Pr0fesseur]

No everything works fine except the gifsicle in my TH addon. The location in terminal by executing "which" command was usr/bin something like that . That is the default location for the ubuntu packages.. I mean is there something more to be done. I'm confused

CumminatorSwitch to TL ??

 

[Cumminator]

Pr0fesseurYeah haha I will try with a test site first 😃

[Pr0fesseur]

Cumminatoryou can use them together... you dont even have to change anything

Pr0fesseurCloudflare free is fine for me now. I might get banned for abusing their page rules for passing images and videos 🤣
