There is some conflicts to fix

@CrochetFeve0251 A minor change.

In the following meta-box, the /combine part should be removed:

wp-rocket/inc/admin/ui/meta-boxes.php

Line 105 in 9822ca2

'minify_css' => __( 'Minify/combine CSS', 'rocket' ),

@CrochetFeve0251 When updating to 3.15 (I changed the WP_ROCKET_VERSION of this PR for testing purposes), the cache is cleared but the /cache/min/1/ folder isn't.

wp_rocket_upgrade fired but the on_update() method didn't run.

Can you please look into this?

Steps to reproduce this

1. Install WP Rocket 3.13.2.
2. Enable the "Combine CSS files" feature.
3. Update to 3.15 (that can be done from a custom URL -> doc - internal link ).
4. Check the /cache/min/1/ folder.

@CrochetFeve0251 Thank you for the PR.

The issue from the previous comment is still there. Can you please take another look?

[vmanthos]

@piotrbak @CrochetFeve0251 Currently, the cache, and minified/combined CSS files will be deleted when updating to 3.15 even if the "Combine CSS files" feature was disabled prior to the update.

Is this something we'd like to address?

[piotrbak]

@vmanthos @CrochetFeve0251 Yes, we need to be sure that we'll be able to remove the leftovers later though:

1. Combine CSS enabled some combined files generated
2. Turn off Combine CSS
3. Update the plugin, Combined CSS files are not removed
4. Clear /min/ directory to remove combined/minified CSS files

If 4 point works okay for the leftovers in this PR, we should handle this. If not, we'll need to leave it like it's.

Taking the opportunity from @piotrbak previous comment, I commented out the following line:

wp-rocket/inc/Engine/Optimization/Minify/CSS/Subscriber.php

Line 26 in 5e19edb

'wp_rocket_upgrade' => [ 'on_update', 16, 2 ],

in the 3.15 update file to prevent the cache clearing actions after updating WP Rocket.

Both when Combine CSS files was enabled and when it was disabled before the update the following took place:

• The cache was cleared /cache/wp-rocket/
• The minified folder /cache/min/ and its content wasn't cleared

After the update, using "Clear and preload" from the admin bar cleared any leftovers, e.g. previously combined CSS files.

According to Piotr, given this will be a major update, "it will be good to save the resources".

@CrochetFeve0251 A minor change as far as wording goes.

When Autoptimize's CSS minification is enabled we prevent enabling WP Rocket's CSS minification and we display the following message:

CSS Minification is currently activated in Autoptimize. If you want to use WP Rocket’s minification, disable those options in Autoptimize.

wp-rocket/inc/Engine/Admin/Settings/Page.php

Line 611 in 50dcab4

$css_section_helper[] = sprintf( __( '%1$s Minification is currently activated in <strong>Autoptimize</strong>. If you want to use %2$s’s minification, disable those options in Autoptimize.', 'rocket' ), 'CSS', WP_ROCKET_PLUGIN_NAME );

We should change this to:

CSS Minification is currently activated in Autoptimize. If you want to use WP Rocket’s minification, disable the option in Autoptimize.
