ObjectNest Cache Wordpress Plugin - Rating, Reviews, Demo & Download
Plugin Description
ObjectNest Cache makes persistent object caching understandable and manageable inside WordPress. It connects WordPress to a Memcached server through the standard wp-content/object-cache.php drop-in and explains whether the PHP extension, server, and drop-in are working.
The plugin stays local-first. It does not create an account, send site data to a remote service, add frontend assets, or track visitors.
Features
- Automatic discovery of common local Memcached endpoints.
- Custom Memcached host and port configuration.
- Connection test with actionable diagnostics.
- Safe connect and disconnect controls.
- Refuses to overwrite a foreign object-cache.php drop-in.
- Live Memcached version, uptime, hit ratio, items, memory, connections, traffic, and evictions.
- Optional disk object-cache fallback when Memcached is unavailable.
- Explicit administrator-only cache flush action protected by a nonce.
- Responsive, keyboard-friendly WordPress admin dashboard.
- A compact WordPress Dashboard widget showing live hit ratio, memory, items, evictions, and uptime.
Requirements
- WordPress 5.8 or newer.
- PHP 7.4 or newer.
- For Memcached: the PECL
memcachedextension and a reachable Memcached server. - The legacy PECL
memcacheextension is not the extension used by the Memcached backend.
Safety
ObjectNest never overwrites an object-cache.php file it does not own. Memcached should listen on a private interface or protected network; do not expose it to the public internet. Cache keys are salted per WordPress installation when the generated drop-in is created.
The Flush action affects the connected cache backend’s pool. Use it only when you understand whether that server is shared with other applications.
Screenshots
