Hi,

I want to use statice compression for my website. I was planning on editing the DNN web.config by adding the following:

<httpCompression directory="%SystemDrive%\inetpub\temp\IIS Temporary Compressed Files">
    <scheme name="gzip" dll="%Windir%\system32\inetsrv\gzip.dll"/>
    <staticTypes>
      <add mimeType="text/*" enabled="true"/>
      <add mimeType="message/*" enabled="true"/>
      <add mimeType="application/javascript" enabled="true"/>
      <add mimeType="application/javascript; charset=utf-8" enabled="true"/>
      <add mimeType="application/x-javascript" enabled="true"/>
      <add mimeType="*/*" enabled="false"/>
    </staticTypes>
  </httpCompression>

Inside <system.webServer>

I would also leave <urlCompression doStaticCompression="true" /> which is already there.

However I noticed this line is also there:

<add name="Compression" type="DotNetNuke.HttpModules.Compression.CompressionModule, DotNetNuke.HttpModules" preCondition="managedHandler" />

Should I remove that or leave it there?

Thanks a lot! The reason I am not doing this through Dotnetnuke is that dotnetnuke seems to only compress default.aspx. Also if there is a better way (like editing compression.config which I have seen no documentation for) please let me know!
