Minify and Optimize your CSS by clicking one button. All you have to do is go to Settings and click CSS Minify. Activating the plugin there will minify and optimize your CSS. No settings required, just click one button.
So anything you can do to speed up the load time of your site should be worth investigating, right? One such thing is “minifying” the CSS files that are used in part to build your site. As is typically the case, there is a plugin available that can do the job for you – Suprise: It’s this one!
Code from this plugin is forked from Autoptimize a really great plugin. You can find it by searching for it here on wordpress.org in the plugin search.

Allows you to combine and minify your CSS and JS files to improve page load time. This plugin uses the PHP library <a href="http://code.google.com/p/minify/" rel="nofollow ugc">Minify</a> and relies on WordPress’s enqueueing system rather than the output buffer, which respects the order of CSS and JS files as well as their dependencies. BWP Minify is very customizable and easy to use.
