Use WP-Minify and Jetpack together

Like probably the most of you, I use the Jetpack plugin from Automattic. Some time ago I also installed the plugin WP-Minify. This plugin enables you to combine all JavaScript and CSS files from the HEAD into a single file which can also be minified. In doing so you are saving your visitors a lot of requests. Also the total request size will decrease because of the minification. If you haven’t set up some caching headers fpr JavaScript and CSS, the plugin will also do this for you. Unfortunately, there are problems with the simultaneous use of Jetpack and WP-Minify. But the solution is quite simple.

If you use the JavaScript minification, as I do, then on the Options page you can specify JavaScript files to be excluded from the minification. Here you should specify the following file:

wp-content/plugins/jetpack/modules/wpgroho.js

The Path is relative to your WordPress root directory. The settings should then look like this:

WP-Minify with Jetpack

Once you’ve saved the settings, Jetpack should work again as expected.
