@iTechRoom – Yes, it conflicts with All in One SEO. It breaks the rewriting of the title tag.

Does this code conflicts with WP Super Cache plugin or WP All in one SEO plugin, It’s showing “Content Encoding Error” during first visit but works on refresh.

Not working for Drupal.
Getting the Content Error:
The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid “or unsupported form of compression.”

Quick update…this greatly decreased my load time, but it is not really compatible with the All in One SEO plug in – it breaks the title tag. FAS, this could also be the reason for the broken home page title. Are you using All in One SEO plugin?

For now I’ve removed gzip, installed WP Super Cache, and will consider using another SEO plugin so that I can use gzip.

Thanks for the great tip…hope to use it again soon!

Thanks for making this so easy. I’m always intimidated by things like this, and the previous suggestions I had read about how to implement gzip compression were beyond me. I added your code to my site in just a few seconds…
Now I have more time to enjoy that beer!

An alternative solution but guaranteed to work.
If you have an access to .htaccess file in your WordPress root folder, add this script at the very bottom: (just copy and paste)

SetOutputFilter DEFLATE

# Netscape 4.x has some problems
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4 gzip-only-text/html

# Netscape 4.06-4.08 have some more problems
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4\.0[678] no-gzip

# MSIE masquerades as Netscape, but it is fine
BrowserMatch \bMSIE !no-gzip !gzip-only-text/html

# NOTE: Due to a bug in mod_setenvif up to Apache 2.0.48, the above regex wonâ€™t work. You can use the following
# workaround (comment the above line and uncomment the below line) to get the desired effect:
# BrowserMatch \bMSI[E] !no-gzip !gzip-only-text/html

# Donâ€™t compress already-compressed files
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI .(?:gif|jpe?g|png)$ no-gzip dont-vary
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI .(?:exe|t?gz|zip|bz2|sit|rar)$ no-gzip dont-vary
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI .(?:avi|mov|mp3|mp4|rm|flv|swf|mp?g)$ no-gzip dont-vary
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI .pdf$ no-gzip dont-vary

# Make sure proxies donâ€™t deliver the wrong content
Header append Vary User-Agent env=!dont-vary

# AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
AddType text/x-component .htc

php_value upload_max_filesize 128M
php_value post_max_size 128M
php_value memory_limit 256M

Thanks for the tip and great explanation. I just finished reading quite a few tips on compression and wish I would have found yours first :)

If anyone suffers from ‘Content Encoding Errors’ after enabling GZIP, double check there is no whitespace before gzip is loaded in the header. I had this and it stumped me for weeks!

JOhn, Can you tell me why does the gzip cause the name of the home page title to change?

To those whose sitemaps and archives are not opening, add this code

Where X and Y are your pages to exclude from gzip compression.

The compression mentioned may do wonders, especially if quasi-static pages are used (as those generated by Super Cache).

I would only add that using Apache’ mod_deflate and a .htaccess directive

SetOutputFilter DEFLATE

(remember, you can apply it to any type of file using Files directive)

will apply the GZip compression to files not served by the WP or whatever engine do you use. If you allow downloading files that do compress even a while, that will donate to efficiency.
