   Hi,
   The script and CSS for the back end are concatenated and -if possible- compressed, but how would I go about doing it for the front end as well?

   Thanks

   There are several scripts that do this on front end:

   • WP Minify
   • W3 Total Cache
   • Script Compressor
   • PHP Speedy
   • Autoptimize

   Note that all of them have different features and give different results so test results with tools like Live HTTP Headers extension for Firefox or online tools http://www.webpagetest.org/test and http://www.websiteoptimization.com/services/analyze/ (check cache/expiry headers and gziping, see what scripts are concatenated (you don't want to include popular external files like Google Analytics, AdSense, Google Ajax Libraries or other statistics, ads and similar files which are common and are probably already cached on user's browser) and so on).
