 * Dear, I have installed the Autoptimize and enable it, then I have got HTTP error
   500. I have previously used the wp super cache plugin. Now please suggest me 
   the way to use both the plugins…

 * Afternoon webdoc121;
    I use WP Super Cache myself, should work perfecty with 
   AO. Can you try if disabling CSS or JS or HTML or Image optimization makes the
   server error go away?

 * If I disable the minifying of CSS, JS or HTML, then it would not fulfill the 
   purpose I am installing the Autoptimize

   find a solution webdoc121 🙂

 * Dear, I have tests disabling and enabling the plugin Options: Here’s what I have
   done so far:
 * 1) Enabling the Plugin with all the options enabled: Causing 500 http error
 * 2) Disabling CSS, HTML, JS and Image Optimization: Website Runs
 * 3) Enabling JS: Website Runs
 * 4) Enabling HTML: Website Runs
 * 5) Enabling Image Optimization: Website Runs
 * 6) Enabling CSS: Causing 500 http error
 * 7) Disabling CSS: Still the same error
 * 8) Disabling Image: Still the same error
 * 9) Disabling HTML: Website Runs
 * Now Please analyze and suggest me which area is wrong…

 * OK, let’s focus on just CSS now;
    1. if only CSS optimization is active do you have the server error?
    2. What happens if you untick the “aggregate CSS”-option?
    3. What happens if you add `themes` or `plugins` to the comma-separated CSS optimization
       list?

 * 1. if only CSS optimization is active do you have the server error? : YES Causing
   http error 500
 * 2. What happens if you untick the “aggregate CSS”-option? : Still the Same Error

 * in that case maybe first and foremost; can you check your PHP-errorlog for errors?
