Switching to W3

    Hi good people.

    I have been using another plugin for Catching and wanted to try the W3. I also have switched to bunny cdn with a dns, so I have a question for that as well.

    Since I have switched, I have almost everything turned on except the database cache. According to GTmetrix https://gtmetrix.com/reports/knjigocrvic.com/Zs1Fbfdf/ my Full Load site time has increased to over 4 sec. It was always 2.5-3s. Score is good, but is there a way to reduce this?

    Additionally, since I use BunnyCDN and their DNS and the acceleration with them, they have said to remove all CDN option from caching plugins and leave the site to them. Caching rate will increase, but it doesn’t. Is less then 4% for few days now which doesn’t make sense. I have a cdn for my main domain and I had to create a cname cdn for it as well. Should I turn this option in W3 on or off? Theoretically, I shouldn’t, but it’s not working so I have no idea anymore what to do.

    After I have turned the CDN option on and added the cname cdn.website to it, this is the result:
    https://gtmetrix.com/reports/knjigocrvic.com/UgpUzF8n/

    Since my website is fully catched, should I simply add website.com instead of cdn.website.com to it?

    Hello @lampir

    Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to assist you with this.
    I’ve checked your website and I can see that you are using some other caching solution instead of W3 Total Cache. Can you confirm this? I can also see that the test result is not as good as the ones you shared with W3TC enabled and the CDN.
    This includes LCP, TBT, and CLS scores.
    As for the CDN URL, it’s normal to have the CDN URL for static files as those files are being served via the CDN.

    Let me know if you gave any other questions.

    Thanks!
