Title: Recommended Static Cache Plugin Last modified: January 10, 2023 --- # Recommended Static Cache Plugin * Resolved [startechmarketing](https://wordpress.org/support/users/startechmarketing/) * (@startechmarketing) * [3 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/recommended-static-cache-plugin/) * 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 * I look foward to your reply Viewing 12 replies - 1 through 12 (of 12 total) * Plugin Contributor [iSaumya](https://wordpress.org/support/users/isaumya/) * (@isaumya) * [3 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/recommended-static-cache-plugin/#post-16361149) * Hi [@startechmarketing](https://wordpress.org/support/users/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: 1. 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. 2. 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. 3. Inside the plugin settings enable the option `Add browser caching rules for static assets` ([https://i.imgur.com/c9M4XyJ.jpeg](https://i.imgur.com/c9M4XyJ.jpeg)). This will add proper `cache-control` data for all static files. 4. Inside the Cloudflare dashboard, enable `Smart Tiered Cache` for your domain. 5. For general optimization and static file optimization, use Perfmatter or Auoptimize( if you are looking or a free plugin). 6. 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. * Hope this helps. 🙂 * Thread Starter [startechmarketing](https://wordpress.org/support/users/startechmarketing/) * (@startechmarketing) * [3 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/recommended-static-cache-plugin/#post-16362126) * Thanks * I implimented your suggestions, * I do not like autooptimize and Perfmatter  is not free, is there another lightweight plugin? * Thank you * Plugin Contributor [iSaumya](https://wordpress.org/support/users/isaumya/) * (@isaumya) * [3 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/recommended-static-cache-plugin/#post-16362180) * Hi [@startechmarketing](https://wordpress.org/support/users/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. * Thread Starter [startechmarketing](https://wordpress.org/support/users/startechmarketing/) * (@startechmarketing) * [3 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/recommended-static-cache-plugin/#post-16362244) * ok I have a look thank you * Thread Starter [startechmarketing](https://wordpress.org/support/users/startechmarketing/) * (@startechmarketing) * [3 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/recommended-static-cache-plugin/#post-16389440) * ok I am using perfmatters but now your option at the admin bar to purge cache is gone and my site has gone extremely slow * Plugin Contributor [iSaumya](https://wordpress.org/support/users/isaumya/) * (@isaumya) * [3 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/recommended-static-cache-plugin/#post-16389475) * Hi, I don’t understand how that can happen as I have been using Perfmatter with this plugin across many sites. * Thread Starter [startechmarketing](https://wordpress.org/support/users/startechmarketing/) * (@startechmarketing) * [3 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/recommended-static-cache-plugin/#post-16389482) * I don’t know I am trying to track it down.

That seems very wired. Check inside the plugin settings other tab if the option is turned on to remove that option. * > [View post on imgur.com](https://imgur.com/4Uyd2yW) * Thread Starter [startechmarketing](https://wordpress.org/support/users/startechmarketing/) * (@startechmarketing) * [3 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/recommended-static-cache-plugin/#post-16403881) * 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.) * Plugin Contributor [iSaumya](https://wordpress.org/support/users/isaumya/) * (@isaumya) * [3 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/recommended-static-cache-plugin/#post-16404006) * Hi [@startechmarketing](https://wordpress.org/support/users/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. * Thread Starter [startechmarketing](https://wordpress.org/support/users/startechmarketing/) * (@startechmarketing) * [3 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/recommended-static-cache-plugin/#post-16406498) * Thanks for your suggestion.
