MiniPress

Automatically concatenates and minifies all enqueued scripts upon pageload.

Description

Concatenation merges multiple JavaScript files into one. This means the browser downloads 1 file instead of 5, 10, or 20.

Minification removes all unnecessary space from a file. This means you only download the content you actually need.

To speed up your site, most developers will recommend you do both. But it can be time-consuming and frustrating to set this up - particularly as you install new plugins on your site.

Rather than forcing you to merge and minify files manually, this plugin will do it for you automatically. No configuration is needed, just activate and go.

This is very much a beta version of the plugin and is not expected to be stable. Please report any and all bugs to https://github.com/ericmann/MiniPress/issues

Frequently Asked Questions

How does SCRIPT_DEBUG work for developers?

If SCRIPT_DEBUG is set to true in the configuration file, then nothing will happen to your scripts. They will not be concatenated or minified.

What about stylesheets?

Yep, they're concatenated and minified now, too. To turn this functionality off, declare STYLE_DEBUG in wp-config.php and set it to true.
