However, I have found many enhancements that helped me just by using the .htaccess file. I have also solved the problem of not being able to access your admin area.

By using this .htaccess file I have 99/100 score with gtmetrix and a page load time of .5 seconds.

You are free to use this of course, but you should rename your original .htaccess before you upload this one.

The final item that needs to be taken care of is deleting the .htaccess file in the smartoptimizer file. This has a conflict with rendering your page correctly with .css files.

Code: Select all

# 1.To use URL Alias you need to be running apache with mod_rewrite enabled. 

# 2. In your opencart directory rename htaccess.txt to .htaccess.

I tested a new htaccess but when i open the Security update then i got an internal 500 error

# Rabbit Rabbit Security Upgrade
Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch

When i comment the line then all is OK again

# Rabbit Rabbit Security Upgrade
# Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch

What is causing this and why this works with others. Could this be a conflict with the extension SmartOptimizer?
