speedup your forum like a Lightning

[Qleb]

Hello guys

i have an advice for people who has html or css styles has allot of images

Try it here

if you looking for how i can speed up my forum you well find here how you can speedup your forum and make it run like a thunder

just use mod_expire at the server to speed it up

but haw !!

if you already has .htaccess file in forum or website root folder

just open it and add this code below your code

if you don't has one upload the text file to your root folder and rename it to .htaccess


Code is :

# Turn on Expires and set default to 0 
ExpiresActive On 
ExpiresDefault A0 
  
# Set up caching on media files for 1 year (forever?) 
<FilesMatch "\.(flv|ico|pdf|avi|mov|ppt|doc|mp3|wmv|wav)$"> 
ExpiresDefault A29030400 
Header append Cache-Control "public" 
</FilesMatch> 
  
# Set up caching on media files for 1 week 
<FilesMatch "\.(gif|jpg|jpeg|png|swf)$"> 
ExpiresDefault A604800 
Header append Cache-Control "public" 
</FilesMatch> 
  
# Set up 2 Hour caching on commonly updated files 
<FilesMatch "\.(xml|txt|html|js|css)$"> 
ExpiresDefault A7200 
Header append Cache-Control "proxy-revalidate" 
</FilesMatch> 
  
# Force no caching for dynamic files 
<FilesMatch "\.(php|cgi|pl|htm)$"> 
ExpiresActive Off 
Header set Cache-Control "private, no-cache, no-store, proxy-revalidate, no-transform" 
Header set Pragma "no-cache" 
</FilesMatch>

Note : this code require Mod_expire installed at the server else you well get 500 Error


please don't replay until you try the code
