Introduction

Understanding which caching plugins are compatible with Ezoic when your site is integrated via our WordPress plugin is crucial for optimal performance and functionality. This article provides a comprehensive list of known WordPress caching plugins that work seamlessly with Ezoic or are incompatible. By the end of this article, you will have a clear understanding of which plugins to use and which to avoid, ensuring that Ezoic's optimizations can function effectively on your site.

Overview

Below is a detailed explanation of the compatibility status of various WordPress caching plugins with Ezoic:

Compatible WP Caching Plugins:

  1. W3 Total Cache:

    W3 Total Cache is compatible but is not recommended for speed.

  2. WP Super Cache:

    This plugin is compatible with Ezoic and can be used without any special configurations.

  3. WP Rocket Cache:

    As another compatible option, WP Rocket Cache works well with Ezoic's optimizations.

Though these 3 plugins are listed as compatible, Ezoic will automatically disable each plugin's HTML caching features in order for our own optimizations to function correctly. However, if you prefer to utilize the HTML caching of any these pluins, we advise switching to name server or Cloudflare integration.

Known Incompatible WP Caching Plugins:

  • Swift Performance Cache
  • LiteSpeed Caching
  • WP Fastest Cache
  • Autoptimise Cache
  • WP-Optimize
  • SG Optimizer

These plugins are known to cause conflicts and are generally incompatible with Ezoic integration via the WordPress plugin. While some publishers might experience partial compatibility under specific conditions, Ezoic does not guarantee overall compatibility with these plugins. It's advisable to avoid using them to prevent potential issues.

Tips and Best Practices

  1. Integration Methods: If you prefer using a caching plugin, consider integrating your site via name servers or Cloudflare instead of relying on the WordPress plugin, as this allows you to utilize the plugin's HTML caching features while benefiting from Ezoic's optimizations.
  2. Regular Monitoring: Continuously monitor your site's performance and caching behavior when using any caching plugin. This helps in quickly identifying and resolving any compatibility issues that might arise.
  3. Backup and Test: Before integrating any caching plugin, take a full backup of your site. Conduct thorough testing in a staging environment to ensure there are no adverse effects on site performance or functionality.
  4. Consult Documentation: Refer to both Ezoic's and the caching plugin's official documentation for best practices, setup guides, and troubleshooting tips.
  5. Stay Updated: Keep both your WordPress and caching plugins updated to their latest versions to ensure compatibility and optimal performance.
