 * many thanks for the comprehensive reply – it is very much appreciated
 * despite the 504s all 4 staatic checks in Site Health report OK:
   Permalink structure
   appears to be configured correctlyStaatic work directory is writablePublication
   task timeout appears to be in orderStaatic can perform loopback requests
 * the server is very modestly spec-ed as it’s for authoring only, so given I’ve
   seen all tests passed I’ll probably do the suggested:
 * `add_filter( 'staatic_test_request_enabled', '__return_false' );`
 * to keep the load down – I can’t see reason (for me personally) to repeatedly 
   execute a long running php task that’ll consume a php worker when I know it’s
   going to succeed?

 * Hi Damilare,
   thanks so much for your reply. I now understand that the json files
   for the minify are needed. To understand why I’d like the option to prevent the
   minified .gz files being created, on my hosting .htaccess files aren’t processed,
   so I don’t have any rewrite rules to redirect from the .css to the .css.gz or
   from the .js to the .js.gz so it’s a waste of processor cycles to create those
   files. It doesn’t matter much performance wise that I’m not using them, as mod_deflate
   or mod_brotli will compress them the first time they’re served, and the upstream
   cache will cache the compressed version for subsequent requests. This seems a
   pretty valid config, and good reason to request the option to not generate the
   minify .gz files.many thanksMatt

 * Hi,
 * I have now purchased the plugin, but the alt text is still not carried through.
   Do I have to do something to enable it?
 * many thanks
    Matt
