Plugin Description
Fast AF caching! Optimize your website performance for the best page speed
- Minifies HTML, JavaScript and CSS files
- Defers loading of JavaScript
- Compresses JPEG and PNG images
- Generates static HTML pages
Try it and see the results for yourself…
Getting Started
No complicated settings to deal with;
- Deactivate/delete any current caching or minification plugins
- Install WP Roids
- Activate WP Roids
- Log out
- Refresh your home page TWICE
“It broke my site, arrrrrrgh!”
Do the following steps, having your home page open in another browser. Or log out after each setting change if using the same browser. After each step refresh your home page TWICE
- Switch your site’s theme to “Twenty Twenty” (or one of the other “Twenty…” Themes). If it then works, you have a moody theme
- If still broken, go to the WordPress Plugins page and disable all Plugins (except WP Roids, obviously). If WP Roids starts to work, we have a plugin conflit
- Reactivate each plugin one by one and refresh your home page each time time until it breaks
- If still broken after the above step, go to the Settings tab and try disabling JS optimisation for the Plugin which triggered an error in the previous step – this is done in the second section “Plugins JavaScript”
- Finally, if no improvement has occurred, go to the Settings tab and experiment with toggling options in the first section “Core Settings”
- If you have the time, it would help greatly if you can log a support topic on the Support Page and tell me as much as you can about what happened
How Fast Is It?
In testing, WP Roids was FASTER than:
- WP Super Cache
- W3 Total Cache
- WP Fastest Cache
- Comet Cache
- Autoptimize
- WP Speed of Light
- …and many more!
Where Can I Check Site Speed?
Either of these two sites is good:
Software Requirements
In addition to the WordPress Requirements, WP Roids requires the following:
-
.htaccess file to be writable
some security plugins disable this, so just turn this protection off for a minute during install/activation
-
PHP version greater than 5.6.0
It WILL throw errors on activation if not! No damage should occur though
-
PHP cURL extension enabled
Usually is by default on most decent hosts
