Can there be two HTACCESS files inside the hosting?
yes, apache will check each directory for a .htaccess and will apply rules found in one to that directory and child directories.
hope this clarifies,

Can I remove the codes that are in the <HTACCESS> of the AUTOPTIMIZE and put them in the <HTACCESS> of the WORDPRESS?
Another question:
Inside the WORDPRESS <HTACCESS>, I already have a code that I put with rules to take advantage of the browser cache. I mean, in autopmitize there’s a <HTACCESS> with cache codes, and in WORDPRESS there are also cache codes.
What do you think? Can I have a problem?

you can, but AO will re-write them every time you clear the cache. you could however create an (empty) ao htaccess template-file wp-content/AO_htaccess_tmpl in which case AO will use that one.

depends on what is in your own .htaccess, but problems would be unlikely 🙂
have a nice weekend,

this is the code that is in wordpress htaccess:
#BEGIN cache
<IfModule mod_expires.c>
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresDefault “access plus 1 month”
ExpiresByType image/webp “access plus 1 month”
ExpiresByType image/gif “access plus 1 month”
ExpiresByType image/png “access plus 1 month”
ExpiresByType image/jpg “access plus 1 month”
ExpiresByType image/jpeg “access plus 1 month”
ExpiresByType image/ico “access plus 3 month”
ExpiresByType image/svg+xml “access plus 1 month”
ExpiresByType text/css “access plus 1 month”
ExpiresByType text/javascript “access plus 1 month”
ExpiresByType text/html “access plus 1 month”
ExpiresByType application/javascript “access plus 1 month”
ExpiresByType application/x-javascript “access plus 1 month”
</IfModule>
#END cache
I did not understand. You tell me to create a folder inside <wp-content>? What name would I give to this folder? Can I put it in place of the <Cache> folder? Would it be this?
this is the code that is in wordpress htaccess:
don’t see any obvious issues there.

No, my point is you can create a file called AO_htaccess_tmpl in wp-content. if it is there AO will use the contents of that file for it’s own .htaccess.

I have a similar issue. My htaccess includes Expires headers, gzip and deflate commands. Do ANY of these serve an useful purpose if i’m using AO? If not, do I just delete them?
(Excellent plugin, by the way!)

they do, actually, for all non-AO’ed resources, so I would leave them be 🙂
