FAQ

Does WP Performance work with Nginx?

WP Performance has support for Nginx servers, but an extra step is required to make it working properly.
Depending on your WP Performance configuration, rewrite rules will be generated and listed under the “Settings” tab. You have to copy and paste generated rules manually into the Nginx config file.

Does WP Performance support WordPress Multisite?

WP Performance supports WordPress Multisite with subdomains.

Great speed, beautifully simple UI. Can do basic caching or even more advanced caching. Most of all, it worked well for my use. I’m typically a LiteSpeed Cache and Swift user…but really enjoyed this one. Thanks for such a great free cache plugin.

I want to say that it worked but my site still feel the same and I’ve activated the essentials so I don’t know what to say. If I can get a reply back from the developer, that’ll be nice. It says CSS not found and Javascript not found.

I’ve tried all caching and minifying plugins available on WordPress.org and CodeCanyon. WP-Performance is easily my favorite. Can’t recommend it enough.
