Ahh I like the sound of this. Thanks! :)

[SteamyLightning]

I'll try it out. Looks promising.

[nexialys]

strange, somewhere else, someone told it would be cumbersome to do that... i'm happy some brain acted on it and created it without listening others comments... lol

I saw this post (or one like it) on vb.com from a staff member...

[Ziki]

Eh,you stole my idea ;),though mine is using custom code not YUI.

[Rene Kriest]

Andreas is a vb genius. WORD!

[Forum Lover]

Newbie question:
What is the benefit of it exactly?

[RvG2]

genuis is a talent :D

[Stormraven]

Does this actually work? i would like to know more before i add this, can someone who has already added this give me some feedback please? does it increase speed?

[Ziki]

It does not really increase speed,rather saves bandwidth as the size of the css is smaller.

[valdet]

Guys ! Rest assured, because anything from Andreas is quality.

His TMS is masterpiece, so I believe this mod will also have same positive feedback.

Thanks

[buileminh]

What does this mod do?

[Andreas]

This Add-on minifies your CSS.
If you don't know what that means, you don't need this modification - simple as that :)

[Sweeks]

In what ways does it "minify" the css though?

Installed now, thank you :)

*Installs.

Now, how can I test that it's actually working?

[Andreas]

Now, how can I test that it's actually working?

By looking at your CSS before and after using this modification?
If it's minified now and wasn't before -> it's working, if not -> it's not working.

Simple, huh? ;)

Simple, huh? ;)

Do you mean in a view source for a page?

[Andreas]

No, just your CSS file.
Example for vBulletin.org style:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/clientscript/vbulletin_css/style-b9c5ed00-00023.css
This is not minified. If it was minified, you wouldn't see whitespaces.

I guess it's not working then :(

I just did this (http://code.google.com/p/minify/) instead

[Phaedrus]

Does YSLOW still work with this, or do you need to uninstall that?

[Andreas]

I just did this (http://code.google.com/p/minify/) instead
That should also work and basically produce similar results.

[Phaedrus]

Never mind. Installed.

[PossumX]

Excellent work, VERY nice. <<installed>> :up:

[Madlike]

Have error (While deleting or uploading a product)

Updating style information for each style

That's just pathetic, I don't care who you are...

Why don't you try standing upright and answering the question like a decent person rather than peppering questions with arrogance.

And your logic is just as pathetic as your response as well... everyone should be entitled to performance enhancements regardless of their knowledge level. What ever happened to learning... oh, right... were too big for that nonsense! :rolleyes:

[Amenadiel]

installed and nominated. Gee this should be a default inclusion in the main branch.

[GrendelKhan{TSU]

That should also work and basically produce similar results.

I already have yslow installed... will this be an ADDITIONAL benefit.

or should we use just one or the other?

[SnakeV]

Worked like a charm, thanks!

[abdobasha2004]

nothing changed
however i like the idea
I have my css on file
the file did not change

[ragtek]

Have you saved your style after installing this modification?

[nomoreturn]

installed on 3.8.2 but not working CSS same as before installing i saved style after installing but nothing changed in CSS

[mikey1991]

installed on 3.8.3 but not working CSS same as before installing i saved style after installing but nothing changed in CSS

3.8.3 isn't out yet?

[nomoreturn]

ups sorry Its 3.8.2 . 3.8.3 writen by mistake

[mikey1991]

Are you on PHP 5?

[nomoreturn]

Are you on PHP 5?

Yes i am on PHP 5

[dancue]

installed on 3.8.2 but not working CSS same as before installing i saved style after installing but nothing changed in CSS

Same here.

[SnakeV]

Same here.

Working perfect on 3.8.3

After update go to Main CSS at the bottom and Click Save.

[Goomzee]

i did but all nothing change

[nohuhu]

Great mod, installed. However, I've noticed that its effect is only seen in auto-generated main CSS file, leaving vbulletin_important.css untouched. Looking at it, I can see it really needs minifying... Is it possible to include it as well in the minifying routine?

Regards,
nohuhu.

[ChiNa]

I hope that it will work for me,,, thanks

[fxdigi-cash]

I tested it on vb4.2 and nothing changed...!

possibly the minification doesn't work properly... i believe using some minify plugin from google page speed would be a lot better... what do yah think?

[Zachery]

Not sure why you'd think a vBulletin 3.x plugin would work on vBulletin 4.

[Alfa1]

There is a serious security issue with minify: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/minify/cpN-ncKPFZE/kwYVpLMkfDwJ

OVERVIEW
========

On some systems running Minify, an attacker may be able to reveal the contents of
arbitrary files. You are strongly advised to follow the instructions below to manually
patch your system, and upgrade to Minify 2.1.7 when possible.


PATCH INSTRUCTIONS
------------------

Open /min/index.php. A comment block begins on line 2.

Insert a line break so that the comment begins on line 3.

Copy and paste the following code onto line 2:

if (isset($_GET['f'])) {
$_GET['f'] = str_replace("\x00", '', (string)$_GET['f']);
}

Save the file.


DETAILS
-------

On some PHP systems, file system functions accept parameters containing null bytes
("\x00"), but do not handle them correctly. See:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/security.filesystem.nullbytes.php

An attacker may be able to use Minify to reveal the contents of any file PHP has access to
within the document root, including sensitive configuration files.

Thanks to Matt Mecham for reporting this vulnerability.


MINIFY 2.1.7
------------

You are strongly encouraged to upgrade to Minify 2.1.7, available at these URLS:

* http://code.google.com/p/minify/downloads/detail?name=minify-2.1.7.zip
* https://github.com/mrclay/minify/archive/2.1.7.zip
