Can anyone help me understand why W3 Total Cache Plugin for WordPress on this website isn't combining the CSS & JS (respectively)?

Here are my settings: Page Cache: Enabled, Disk Enhance Minify: Enabled, Auto, Disk, Default, JSMin, Default

Do you mean why isn't it merging them into one file? That wouldn't make sense since they're different content types. - Chad Hedgcock
I meant respective to their languages. If you see the link you'll see that there are numerous CSS files that should be combined into one file. Same with the JS. - Spencer Hill
Are you using any other form of minifying or caching? Did you check the Advanced settings on minification in the W3 Total Cache settings? - JCL1178
I wasn't at the time I experienced this issue. And yes, I reviewed the Advanced Settings for Minification in W3 Total Cache. Thanks for taking the time to reply. - Spencer Hill

I use manual disk minify. In my situation w3 total combined JavaScript and CSS. Therefore I recommended to use manual minify (disk). Then go to w3 total minify tab and click on the top "Help" button and add all the necessary js and CSS.

Once added js and/or css remove if there's any queries strings (add js and css direct link) eg:- wp-content/theme/mytheme/style.css

This could break your site. Therefore add js and css step by step.
