 * Hi,
 * I’m a relatively new user and I just noticed the “Object cache” setting in the
   plugin.
 * I’ve got server-level caching, through Siteground. Is it best to disable this
   plugin-based option for object caching? Or use both?

 * Hi Ronnie,
 * We’re going to remove the object caching setting (and feature) in the upcoming
   update of TSF because it causes indexing and API issues difficult to detect and
   debug.
 * So, any further discussion on this topic is moot 🙂
 * I advise leaving the option unchecked. The performance benefit is negligible 
   anyway: a few milliseconds at best.
 * Do use the server-level caching of Siteground if that helps you. If you can enable
   Opcode caching for Siteground — definitely do so! It’s best to reach out to Siteground’s
   support for WordPress optimization.
 * Have a nice day!

 * Thanks for the reply. Really appreciate it.
 * If it’s not too much trouble, I’m also a bit confused on Query Alteration Settings.(
   Search and Archive).
 * For example, is search query alteration only to exclude pages from showing up
   if people search within my own site? Through my internal search bar?
 * If so, I don’t need. I just wasn’t 100% clear on what these settings do.

 * Hi Ronnie!
 * When in doubt: Don’t touch the setting.
 * I added the query alteration settings for sites that have grown beyond humanly
   interpretable numbers, such as news networks with 100,000+ posts with 100 visits
   per second with databases decoupled from the webserver.
 * Most other site types will not notice a difference in changing the options, so
   I advise keeping the default settings to prevent side effects.
 * The query alteration settings affect local on-site search queries only (`https://
   example.com/search/search+term/`, or the ugly archaic `?s=search+term`) and local
   on-site archives (including widgets). So, yes, the “internal search bar” is affected
   by those options.
 * Via the post-edit SEO Visibility settings, you can exclude posts from archives
   and posts + pages from search results.
