 * Due to the way our server is set up, we need to disable page cache (figured that
   out) but we need to enable the zip compression via the setting in the php mulit-
   ini file.
 * How do I configure W3 to allow for this?

 * Hello [@noise](https://wordpress.org/support/users/noise/)
 * Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to help!
   Just to make sure I am getting
   this, you wish to also make sure that any settings in the W3 Total Cache does
   not conflict with the compression you are setting?In this case, simply disable
   the gzip compression option in Performance>Browser Cache and make sure to save
   all settings and purge the cacheLet me know if this helps!
 * Thanks!
