: How to best enable gzip compression on shared hosting I must assume that this is a duplicate question, but I could not find the answer myself. I want to enable gzip compression to everything

I must assume that this is a duplicate question, but I could not find the answer myself.
I want to enable gzip compression to everything my website sends (mostly php, css, a slight bit of js).

this question makes a point of adding a line into the .htaccess file (that i do have access to) but i'm not sure if that would include the dynamic content.

this question (has a typo in the question, it should be ob_start I think) tells me how to enable gzip to php files. and after fixing the typo it seems to work.

do i need to use both ? is there anything else i need as well ?

: Alternative to .htaccess (due to bad performance) I've been told that .htaccess should be avoided when possible, as it reduces the server performance and new servers disable it or just don't

The output of PHP files is HTML. That HTML will be compressed using the code in this question:

AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/plain text/xml text/javascript text/css application/javascript application/json

That's all you need to do (assuming mod_deflate is enabled for Apache).
