 * Hi,
 * i have been using the plugin from months and i had no problem ..
 * But when i activated minify in settings everything went wrong …
 * i see only a white page nothing else ..so i removed it …
 * This time i am able to see the site but all the alignment is missed …:-(
 * i now installed wp super cache and it says ” No closing HTML tag. Check your 
   theme”
 * Please tell me how to get the site back with a good look using w3total cache
 * i have cleared all caches , removed and reinstalled the plugin and also activated
   deactivated the minify settings but no luck

 * Minification has not worked in the last two releases of the plugin. The plugin
   author is working on it.
 * You can disable the minifcation setting, then clear your page cache and minification
   cache – and your site should be fine.

 * Auto minification fails for many people, but if you do it manually, picking and
   choosing your files, you can make it work.

 * FWIW, Several people on the forums here, and the Headway support forums, are 
   getting the same error message – “Bad file param format” – in the minified files,
   regardless of whether minifcation is automatic or manual.
 * If you’re getting a similar message, you can downgrade to 0.9.1.3

 * Given the high number of variables that go into your server, this could be a 
   theme, PHP, or disk-cache error. Hard to really say. I know this: Manual works
   for me on Theme Hybrid and Twenty Ten (and Twenty Eleven).

 * Just a small mention:
    W3TC doesn’t alter your theme files.
 * Also, the development version fixed quite a few bugs.
