CSS Aggregation

By savantcreative on 27 May 2008 at 18:42 UTC

Concerning creating a theme, at http://drupal.org/node/171209 the is a note saying
When working with style sheets, make sure CSS aggregation is disabled. It is located in "Administer > Site configuration > Performance". When it is enabled, any alterations will not be reflected on your site until the aggregated styles are cleared. You can enable it again when you're done.

I have downloaded the latest version of Drupal and do not have that listed as a choice. Can someone please tell me what I should do?

Thanks a lot.

Administer -> Performance
look under Under Bandwidth Optimisations

Drupal can automatically optimize external resources like CSS and JavaScript, which can reduce both the size and number of requests made to your website. CSS files can be aggregated and compressed into a single file, while JavaScript files are aggregated (but not compressed). These optional optimizations may reduce server load, bandwidth requirements, and page loading times.

These options are disabled if you have not set up your files directory, or if your download method is set to private.

you have the ability to Optimize CSS files: & Optimize Javascript files:.

I've fixed the path in the document you linked to, to try and minimize confusion. In Drupal 5 it was called css aggregation.
