I see on your plugin page about if you use a cache plugin, I asked litespeed how to disable page cache he recommended a different CDN but also told how to turn off page caching.
Do you know a plugin that works best, I don’t like Super Cache or Autooptimize – many caching plugins slow the site down worse
Hi @startechmarketing, If you are using this plugin and enjoying it, here’s what I would recommmend/I personally use.
As this plugin is a page caching plugin, it does not do any optimization on the static files. So, what I will recommend you are the following:
Make sure you have all page caching system disabled. Whether that’s other caching plugin you have on your website or some server level page caching system. When using this plugin, please ensure that this is the only plugin handling the caching and there is no other caching system present.
Use this plugin with the default Page Rule mode and inside the plugin settings > other tab checkout the option for Remove Cache Buster Query String Parameter. Check the implementation guide for it and add the cache rules no. 1-3 in your Cloudflare dashboard. Then enable the option in the plugin settings and purge cache. This will help you to take advantage of the Cloudflare cache without the swcfpc=1 cache buster query param.
Inside the plugin settings enable the option Add browser caching rules for static assets (https://i.imgur.com/c9M4XyJ.jpeg). This will add proper cache-control data for all static files.
Inside the Cloudflare dashboard, enable Smart Tiered Cache for your domain.
For general optimization and static file optimization, use Perfmatter or Auoptimize (if you are looking or a free plugin).
For image optimization, if your website doesn’t have high traffic, you can definitely try using imagekit.io or optimmole. But if your website has high traffic, it would be better to go with Cloudflare Pro plan with which you will get unlimited image optimization + next-get image format with Cloudflare Polish.
This combination will work perfectly, and you won’t need any other caching plugin.
Hi @startechmarketing, Honestly, I will highly recommend you to give Perfmatter a try. It’s a plugin I use across all sites. Highly recommended. It’s worth every penny.
it is not = to Yes, maybe I can give you login credidentails ? also something in the config. is not optimized (we are on a share host and will more to a better host soon, but we don’t get that much traffic.)
Hi @startechmarketing, Can you try deactiavting and removing the plugin from WP Admin > Plugins section and then freash reinstall the plugin. Maybe it will fix the issue.
