GZIP only compresses files when full file path specified – won't compress root – CPanel

If I include the following in my .htaccess, GZIP will only compress files when the full path to the file is specified:

RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]

But the above rewrite is necessary to allow my CMS to function.

So for example:

https://karenkingston.co.uk isn’t compressed, but https://karenkingston.co.uk/index.php is, and indeed https://karenkingston.co.uk/themes/coach/js/jquery.scripts.js also compresses.

PHP 7.2 but changing versions doesn’t help. Nor does it help to enable GZIP from .htaccess vs. CPanel.

Here’s the full .htaccess

Options -indexes

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www. [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(?:www.)?(.+)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ https://%1%{REQUEST_URI} [R=302,L,NE]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]

    do this in your .htaccess file

    # compress text, html, javascript, css, xml:
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/plain
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/xmlin
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/css
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/xml
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/xhtml+xml
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/rss+xml
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/javascript
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/x-javascript
# Or, compress certain file types by extension:
<files *.html>
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
</files>

    then in your php

    <?php
   if (substr_count($_SERVER[‘HTTP_ACCEPT_ENCODING’], ‘gzip’))
   ob_start(“ob_gzhandler”);
   else ob_start();
?>

    write the above php code in a file that is always active such as your config file or your index.php file
