 * Hi there
 * I just installed and activate gzip-plugin. When I go to Tools / GZIP Compression,
   I get this:
 * Oops! Something went wrong. It could be that you are on a local development environment,
   or that we couldn’t contact checkgzipcompression.com
 * When I go checkgzipcompression.com and put my URL, it checks and then I get “
   GZIP is not enabled”
 * Dubug info:
 * isApache: 1 (Apache)
    enabled: enabled-htaccess: plugin: 1.1.7
 * my url is [http://www.tarhuri.fi](http://www.tarhuri.fi) and I use Human theme
 * I read your anser to christianbouce (4 days ago): “Could you try without checking
   the extra box for using compression for images etc.?”
 * Can you please tell me where I find this “extra box”?
 * Thank you!
    Piia

 * Hi Piia,
 * It seems that the plugin can’t connect to checkgzipcompression, which seems to
   be strange. I’ll did some checks with your domain and it seems to be working.
   
   Could you try checking again? And if it doesn’t work, I’ll push an plugin update
   to do some extra checks.

 * Dear Eric
 * Thanks for your quick responce. Unfortunally nothing helped. I unloaded the plugin,
   upload the plugin again and I get the same “Oops…” and same dubug-info.
 * Looking forward to get to test an updated plugin, cause my site is soooo slow…

 * Just a quick note as I can have a look into this only next week, check out my
   other plugin ([WP Takeoff](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-take-off/)). Because
   for making the site faster you will need caching and image optimizing, good luck
   😉

 * Could you try and update to version 1.1.8? And send me the debug data? That should
   give me some more info about what goes wrong…

   fix this. Keep you posted!

 * Hi Piia,
 * I’ve made a new version which should solve this problem. Could you remove the
   plugin from wordpress, and upload the following test version?

 * Hi, your colleague BD Brown has sent me to this thread.
    I’m having the same 
   problem on a few sites – live sites. The dropbox link to the updated zip file
   doesn’t work – maybe you still have the problem.
