Has anyone used or can recommend a product they have used to optimise CSS/JS on their sites. We are checking a few items now and not sure which to use. Any input is always appreciated.

1. Minify4Joomla
2. JCH Optimize
3. Quick Optimizer
4. PHP Speedy
5. WDPFast
6. Shape 5 CSS and JS Compressor

While not exactly on the same type of product we are also analysing CorePHP Jom Defender to Remove HTML white space, Remove Joomla! PHP header, Remove generator tag, File integrity checks etc.

Cheers

There was one I was looking at the other week called JFinalizer that did the compression on the fly with a variety of options to improve delivery.

You may find you already have a variety of other components in play doing some of the bits you've listed
- sh404sef does the generator tag
- gzip compression and caching reduces some white spacing
- rsfirewall does some other parts
- akeeba admintools does a few other things too.

Yes I can recommend JFinalizer too.

One thing when using any of these sorts of compression tools, do it bit by bit, and check all javascript on the site. You may end up having to skip some javascript files, for instance, or rearrange the order of css files. That's why some of these tools "don't work".

Thanks guys.

Hopefully have something to report for MJUG meeting on 23rd
