I added #6 template edit because T images were not sending to the CDN

Anything else that I should add to this?

In my case, I also had to take out some IF statements relating to {$current_location}, in order to correctly display the flag icons for the XMultiCurrency module...

I have set up 3 pull zones. One for each of smarty.php, function.load_defer_code.php and func.files.php. Makes a big difference to page load speed. Balances the load across servers then and reduces wait time.

DO you tell each pull zone to restrict its caching to just those files?
Want to know more on how you configured this. $24/year for 2 more pull zones seems like a bargain if the speed increase is substantial. Please share? Thanks, J

I have created 3 identical pull zones so you get 3 cdn urls. I used one URL for each of the different lots of content being pulled in. One for the Alt Images, one for the T and P images and one for the css/js plus background images. Seems to work great so far. I haven't done any more restricting that that.

It doesn't cost anything for pull zones. I have the basic 1TB bandwidth from my start-up account and can create as many pull zones as I like. In 6 months I have only used 116Gb bandwidth even though about 5GB is getting downloaded per day.

Are you sure about that? I just tried to add a pull zone and it wanted to charge me $12/year (per zone).

I am only subscribed to the "starter" plan. Could you be subscribed to the "business" plan that includes 25 zones?

I have the 1Tb pre paid bandwidth. I cant see anything else to tell me the type of account.

Looking at the plans I am definitely not on the business plan lol.
