Uninstalling W3Speedster
Removing W3Speedster from a CorePHP project involves deleting its core files, unregistering any include statements, and optionally clearing optimizations made by the plugin.

Backup Your Project (Optional but Recommended) Before making any changes, it’s good practice to back […]
Exclude path from cdn
Feature: While integrating a Content Delivery Network (CDN) improves performance by serving static assets faster, not all files or paths in a CorePHP application should be served via CDN. Certain directories and endpoints—especially those involving server-side logic—must remain on the origin server to preserve functionality, security, and consistency. W3Speedster addresses this requirement with a flexible […]

Why We Need It Ensure Functional Reliability Prevent […]
Localize Google Fonts
Feature: Localize Google Fonts is a powerful feature in W3Speedster that downloads and serves Google Fonts directly from your own server instead of fetching them from Google’s Content Delivery Network (CDN). This approach reduces external dependencies, enhances privacy and security, and improves overall website performance by allowing better control over font delivery. Why We Need […]
