Overview
This WordPress plugin, often referred to as WP Super Cache, is designed to significantly improve the speed and performance of WordPress blogs by generating static HTML files from dynamic WordPress content. By serving these pre-generated static files, it reduces the load on your web server, bypassing heavyweight PHP scripts. The plugin primarily serves static files to users who are not logged in, have not left comments, or have not viewed password-protected posts, thus optimizing page delivery for about 99% of visitors. It supports three caching methods: the fastest using Apache mod_rewrite, a simpler PHP-based cache, and a versatile WP-Cache system for dynamic content. Additionally, it offers features like garbage collection for outdated cache files, CDN integration, REST API endpoints, and customizable caching through hooks and filters. This plugin is ideal for users aiming to enhance their site's performance without extensive manual configuration.
