<p>Similar to what we use on eMusic – this software is still experimental, but take a look!</p>
<p>Automagically concatenates JS and CSS files that are output in wp_head() and wp_footer() – stores / serves them from Memcached (if installed) or Database. In a load-balanced environment, the generation of flat files can be expensive and hard to distribute. Minify takes advantage of Memcached and Site Options / Transients to do the work once and share it among all servers in your cluster. File names are dynamically-generated to allow cache-busting of a CDN like Akamai that doesn’t always cache-bust by query string.</p>
<p>New .htaccess rule!<br />

<p>WordPress asset versioning can be a double-edged sword: on one-hand, it’s extremely effective for cache-busting, ensuring you aren’t sharing stale scripts or styles to your visitors. On the other hand, having to manually increment a version number is a pain (even <a href="https://10up.github.io/Engineering-Best-Practices/php/#asset-versioning" rel="nofollow ugc">as a constant</a>), often resulting in a version control history full of “bumping the version number” commits.</p>
<p>Dynamic Asset Versioning aims to simplify this process: if an enqueued asset doesn’t have an explicit version number, the plugin will get the timestamp of the last time the file was changed and use that as the version number. It’s easy: you touch the file, the version number is updated automatically.</p>
<h4>Usage</h4>
<p>Once Dynamic Asset Versioning is active, it will automatically determine version numbers based on file modification time for any [non-core] files that have been enqueued using <a href="https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_enqueue_style/" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>wp_enqueue_style()</code></a> or <a href="https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_enqueue_style/" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>wp_enqueue_script()</code></a>.</p>
<p><strong>Example</strong></p>
<pre><code>wp_enqueue_style(
    'my-theme-styles',
    get_template_directory_uri() . '/assets/css/my-styles.css',
    array( 'some-other-styles' ),
    false, // Don't worry about it, Dynamic Asset Versioning has you covered!
    'screen'
);
</code></pre>
<h4>Special thanks</h4>
<p>A special thanks goes out to <a href="http://10up.com" rel="nofollow ugc">10up</a>, who helped inspire the original concept of this plugin.</p>


Dynamic Asset Versioning

Exactly what I was looking for. Great stuff. Thanks guys

Amazing

Dynamically set asset version numbers based on file modification times, preventing stale caches.
