 * At the top of my blog [http://www.organizedr.com/b](http://www.organizedr.com/b)
   on most (but it seems not all) occasions when I load that homepage, I get the
   following error:
 * Warning: ob_start(): output handler ‘ob_gzhandler’ cannot be used after ‘URL-
   Rewriter’ in /home/matrix/public_html/organizedr/b/wp-includes/functions.php 
   on line 830
 * Any tips?
 * Thanks.

 * Try to uncheck the “WordPress should compress articles (gzip) if browsers ask
   for them” box on Options > Reading page and see if the error persists.

 * Ah I had 25 posts displaying on the front page.
 * I took gzip off and it seemed to fix it.
 * I then reduced the amount of posts displaing to 12, and added back gzip compression.
 * And it seems to work. It had too much to do I guess.
 * Sincere thanks for the tip.
 * Oh no with showing 12 posts, with gzip compression on, it still has the problem,
   so I’ll have to take gzip compression off.
 * Any ideas why having that on is creating the error? And on that blog but not 
   on my other blogs such as [http://www.internetmarketingsolutiontips.com/b/](http://www.internetmarketingsolutiontips.com/b/)
