I've installed Minimee. It doesn't seem to be combining CSS and JS files, despite them being wrapped in {exp:minimee:css}
and {exp:minimee:js}
respectively. Minimee is installed and "Combine Assets" are checked for CSS and JS (as well as "Minify").
When I view the rendered template, I still see the individual files itemized in the mark up. Basically, they weren't combined. They weren't minimized, either. NOTE: CSS and JS files are in templates.
It seems that when I check the minify HTML checkbox that it does affect the mark up a bit (though I thought it would minify it to the point that the HTML becomes a single line -- unless there are <pre>
or <code>
tags, I suppose).
Anyway, Minimee doesn't seem to be doing its thing. So, I am trying to debug it by turning on Template Debugging. I have set it in CPanel. However, I don't see anything on the rendered page that looks like template debugging. I am logged in as a Super Admin.
Any ideas what might be wrong with Minimee or Template Debugging?
UPDATE 1:
I created the cache folder in the wrong place (was confused since I am using MSM). It's been fixed now. Minimee is now creating the combined/minified CSS and JS and in the cache folder. It seems to also properly reference it from within the templates. However, it seems like what is being retrieved is the home page's HTML instead of the actual contents of the file in the cache folder. Still looking into this.
UPDATE 2:
Seems that there might be some sort of server issue. When I go to www.domain.com/cache/, I see the combined/minified JS and CSS files. However, when I click on them, I get a 404 error.
