EZCache has huge potential beyond the limitations so please will keep it updated so you can stay on the top ’cause you deserved that. Thank you one more time.

Astonishingly it helped me with a js issue which four other caching plugins didn’t solve unless I exempted completely all js from caching, so this one saved me. A big Thanks to the developers and uPress. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/3f3b8044ef64cf3fc35a6f9c56dea3959bbc03b1ec589ec651ff88e7fb4546a3? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Amazing plugin!!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/amazing-plugin-1376/)󠁿 [Superlight SEO](https://profiles.wordpress.org/djeshm/) January 31, 2020 Save your money on Wprocket, fastest cache etc. This is it! After testing basically every cache plugin , this is the one! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/c94a4c2906c3ba9a5e74b1de6d357ac90f773ecc47e35eadd95c05a52e0072e8? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[I saved $ 40](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/i-saved-40/)󠁿 [shirlypinhas](https://profiles.wordpress.org/shirlypinhas/) October 20, 2019 1 reply I just created an account to give this review, used the WPRocket plugin before I knew this plugin, got better results (with a free plugin), just amazing.

Single-post / single-URL invalidation removes the matching Redis page key too. * Fix: Redis Full-Page Cache actually serves from Redis now — maybe_serve_cached_data checks Redis first; the buffer is mirrored to Redis on write with TTL = cache_lifetime. * New: Redis section on the Performance page — connection status, Object Cache + Full-Page toggles, drop-in warning, manual Flush button. * New: Redis widget on the Dashboard — Hit Rate / Memory / Cached Keys live stats, Connected/Disconnected badge, Flush button. * New: Development Mode UI on the Dashboard — duration picker (1h/2h/4h/8h/24h/ Permanent), live “is active” banner with expiry countdown, Disable button. * UI: Sidebar nav items use the brand accent colour by default for better contrast on the dark theme. #### 2.2.0 * New: Redis Object Cache — store WordPress object cache in Redis * New: Redis Full-Page Cache — serve pages from Redis memory * New: Critical CSS — inline above-the-fold CSS, defer the rest * New: Speculative Loading — Chrome Speculation Rules API prerender * New: 103 Early Hints — HTTP 103 headers for faster asset loading * New: Site Diagnostic Tool — one-click performance analysis with recommendations * New: Settings Backup/Restore — export/import configurations * New: Development Mode — temporary cache bypass * New: License key activation in plugin UI * Improved: WebP API with domain-based auth and retry logic * Improved: PRO badges on all premium features * Improved: Cache signature shows Redis/Disk type #### 2.0.0 * Major: Complete UI rebuild with Vue 3 + Vite * New: Freemius integration for licensing * New: Built-in 7-day Pro trial * Improved: Performance page redesign #### 1.7.2 * Fix: Freemius SDK compatibility * Improved: WebP conversion reliability ## Meta * Version **2.5.1** * Last updated **2 weeks ago** * Active installations **10,000+** * WordPress version ** 5.0 or higher ** * Tested up to **6.8.5** * PHP version ** 7.4 or higher ** * Languages * [English (US)](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ezcache/) and [Hebrew](https://he.wordpress.org/plugins/ezcache/). * [Translate into your language](https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/ezcache) * Tags * [cache](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/cache/)[optimization](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/optimization/) [performance](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/performance/)[redis](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/redis/) [speed](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/speed/) * [Advanced View](https://wordpress.org/plugins/ezcache/advanced/) ## Ratings 4.6 out of 5 stars. * [ 4 5-star reviews ](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ezcache/reviews/?filter=5) * [ 0 4-star reviews ](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ezcache/reviews/?filter=4) * [ 1 3-star review ](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ezcache/reviews/?filter=3) * [ 0 2-star reviews ](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ezcache/reviews/?filter=2) * [ 0 1-star reviews ](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ezcache/reviews/?filter=1) [Your review](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ezcache/reviews/#new-post) [See all reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/ezcache/reviews/) ## Contributors * [ uPress ](https://profiles.wordpress.org/upress/) ## Support Got something to say?
