 * hello
 * I have put this code in the last line of my functions.php
 *     ```wp-block-code
       define('AUTOPTIMIZE_CACHE_CHILD_DIR','/css/');
       define('AUTOPTIMIZE_CACHEFILE_PREFIX','css_');
       ```
   
 * and although it is saving the cache files in /css/ folder and with “css_” name,
   Autoptimize is still generating the files on the default folder and name and 
   getting these files anyway

 * how can I solve this problem?

 * those lines should be in wp-config.php [@bique](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bique/),
   not in your theme’s functions.php.
 * hope this helps,
