   Hi, I’d like to know whether your guidance to choose mod_rewrite to serve cache files still stands as opposed to using PHP or Legacy Caching. I notice since you published your article, WP Super Cache have changed their own recommendation from mod_rewrite to PHP.

   Thanks in advance!

   Hi there. I’ve followed this tutorial to a T, and for the most part, everything works correctly, but I’m having two problems. First, when I make changes, they don’t appear on the site if I’m logged in. If I log out, they appear just fine. Second, I’m working on a WPMU network, and I only have the plugin installed on one site. But it’s caching the other sites on the network as well. How do I stop it from doing that? Thanks!

   Hi,
   I followed your steps because my site was taking over 5s to load but after setting up the WP Super Cache my site wouldn’t load. At all. It was basic HTML – no content, no pictures, just the header…
   So, I guess I’m wondering if there’s a laymen’s guide to literally all the terms you use cause I don’t understand websites or programming and I have a website for a start-up NGO so can’t really pay for any help at this point.
   Or maybe you could direct me somewhere that will help me understand all this better? I’m a complete novice and confused easily!
   Help!

   Hello,

   I have a “conceptual doubt” about WP Super Cache, that I didn´t see answered neither in your site neither in other sites.

   The question is: the structure of my site is finished. In basic terms, it is mainly a site of videos of football, which means that from this day on I will gradually add posts (that include the videos that I refered) and pages (of the teams).

   Since that this will be a long and permanent process, I need right now to speed up my site because nowadays is very slow.

   My doubt is: when I install and configue this plugin, what does that mean in terms of the updates that I will do in my site (post and pages that I add)?

   I mean, if I cache the site today and tomorrow I add a new page or post, what do I have to do in order that these pages or posts will be also cached? – do I just have to require an update of the plugin? If so, how do I do that, is it possible to define that the plugin will update the cache for example once a week?

   Thank you!

   Best regards.

   I’m getting an error on the first step where you need to click on caching on and update. You mentioned the following in your article:
   “WP Super Cache will fetch your WordPress site twice and will compare the time stamps of both pages. If the both time stamps match then this means that caching is working on your site now.”

   This is the place where I get the error. I get a message that says:
   Fetching to prime cache: OK

   Fetching first copy of FAILED

   Fetching second copy of : FAILED

   I would be glad if you could help me out.

   My site is a coupon site, so code is included on the coupon so it prints out by itself without lots of other junk that is on the page. If I use WP Super Cache, will that code be lost because it’s now a static page? Will people still be able to click on the coupon to print just the coupon?

     Hi Teddy,

     You will have to test it out first on your computer or in a staging environment.

    This is an ecommerce site using Exchange from iThemes. With WP Super Cache activated certain pages that need to be refreshed don’t get refreshed i.e. Empty Cart. When you Empty Cart it comes back with the same content or in other words it appears unemptied.
    When I deactivate WP Super Cache the problem disappears. It was suggested that I Whitelist the pages that shouldn’t be cached. I am uncertain about how to do that. Any help would be appreciated.

    WP Beginner Staff, when a theme update is applied, or when other plugin updates are made, is WP Super Cache alerted to create new cached versions? Or does the plugin wait until “Expiry Time & Garbage Collection” or a manual cache deletion?

    A difference between the rules in your .htaccess file and the plugin rewrite rules has been found. This could be simple whitespace differences but you should compare the rules in the file with those below as soon as possible. Click the ’Update Mod_Rewrite Rules’ button to update the rules.

    Hi, Thank you for this outstandly good article. However, I am facing several issues with WP S. Cache.
    The website is : avisdupublic.net

    1°) My Home page is a static one. However, when a new article is published, the /home must be changed (new article in the slider and so on). However, it is no the case! Moreover, when I just “update” this static page, by a strange miracle (not so strange because with the update, the cache-page is flushed), the /home becomes “normal”.

    2°) From 1°), I decided to tick the Pages, Front page, Is_home in the rejected ones. However no changes appeared in the /home.

    Do you have an idea where could be the problem ?

    Bests,

    Thanks for post, but i have a problem below:
    Warning! Could not update /home/d2c45a95/public_html/wp-config.php! WPCACHEHOME must be set in config file.
    Warning! /home/d2c45a95/public_html/wp-content/advanced-cache.php does not exist or cannot be updated.

    1. If it already exists please delete the file first.
    2. Make /home/d2c45a95/public_html/wp-content writable using the chmod command through your ftp or server software. (chmod 777 /home/d2c45a95/public_html/wp-content) and refresh this page. This is only a temporary measure and you’ll have to make it read only afterwards again. (Change 777 to 755 in the previous command)
    3. Refresh this page to update /home/d2c45a95/public_html/wp-content/advanced-cache.php

    If that doesn’t work, make sure the file /home/d2c45a95/public_html/wp-content/advanced-cache.php doesn’t exist:

    1. Open /home/d2c45a95/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wp-super-cache/advanced-cache.php$wp_cache_file in a text editor.
    2. Change the text CACHEHOME to /home/d2c45a95/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wp-super-cache/
    3. Save the file and copy it to /home/d2c45a95/public_html/wp-content/advanced-cache.php and refresh this page.

    I have Super Cache working…the contents show all of the pages in the cache. It has increased our site speed.

    the site is insuringincome.com

    For some reason, when I enter additional cnames and use http://content1.insuringincome.com,….
    Comma separated from content1-content10 (confirmed that all cnames are created in CloudFront districution)….I get a 404 error when saving.

    I have tried many different settings…nothing prevents the 404 from trying to save with additional cnames.

    Thoughts?

    Hi Guys!
    First sorry my English, because it is not very good!
    I use wordpress and Boozurk theme version 2.02.
    I have a little problem and i want little help!
    The problem is: when i use my phone and surfing my site, sometimes the theme not switch to mobile view and everything in my site is with wrong view.

    I also use WP super cashe plugin. When i activate the cashe and continue surf the site, then the theme not switch to mobile view and show me a desktop view of the site.

    When i deactivate WP super cashe plugin and delete the cashe the view of the site on my phone is perfect. The theme switch to mobile view.

    Is there any settings of WP super cashe plugin that i have to make, and when i make them the people who surf my site with mobile phones or tablets,
    to surf mobile view of the site, not the cashe page of desktop view.

    I hope you will understand me! Thank you!

    Responder

    • WPBeginner Support

      Borislav, it seems that your theme uses php to detect mobile users and then switches the theme. When you are using WP Super Cache, it displays the standard theme from the cache, so the part where your theme detects and displays mobile theme is not executed. Your theme’s developer can help you better in this regard, or you can also try WP Super Cache’s support tab.

      There could be various reasons. There could be a conflict with .htaccess file in the parent directory or a comment missing # sign in your .htaccess file. You better post in plugin’s page under support tab.

      Shantanu, you should check your wp super cache settings. If everything seems to be setup correctly then you are probably viewing a cached page from your browser.

    Hey guys,

    Thanks for the great blog. I just found it and I am definitely saving this one in my favorites! Keep up the good work.

    Here’s my question:

    When I try to access the WP Super Cache Settings I get the following message:

    Permalink Structure Error

    A custom url or permalink structure is required for this plugin to work correctly. Please go to the Permalinks Options Page to configure your permalinks.

    —

    I used these 2 methods to access the Settings:

    1. Plugins -> WP Super Cache -> Settings
    2. Settings -> WP Super Cache

    But I still get the error message.

    How can I access the Settings to install the plugin?

    Your help would be greatly appreciated,

    • WPBeginner Support

      WP Super Cache requires that you use custom permalinks. We have a guide on how to enable custom permalinks or SEO friendly URL structure. Basically what you need to do is go to Settings » Permalinks and choose a custom link structure for your articles.

    Hi there,

    I used W3 Total Cache in the past, but for some reason I started having problems with it. Maybe the reason was a miss-configuration of the Plugin.

    Anyway, I decided to allocate all the images and files of my website in a subdomain like files.domain.tld

    So now I just want to know something. After applying this steps to my website it will create a cache of the main content of my domain. Posts, Categories, etc…

    What about the files in the subdomain, how can I reduce load time of them? Should I apply CloudFlare only on the subdomain or whole website?

    The website is: http://www.ridfick.com (if possible take a look of what can be done)

    Thanks

    Responder

    • Editorial Staff

      The plugin will create a cache of your page content. However, browser caching won’t be setup properly because you have media files in a subdomain.

      We don’t use cloudflare, so baring that in mind it would make sense to apply it to the whole site.

    Hi,

    Thank you so much for this great tutorial, I am just confused on WP super cache CDN settings. Do you need a CDN network like MaxCDN to be used with WP super cache or WP CDN works alone, where you will get the CNAMEs URLs. Also do you recommend using the plugin with cloudflare.

    Responder

    • Editorial Staff

      The whole purpose of having CDNs is to utilize third-party cloud servers to reduce the load on your main server. Simply creating cname records on your main server won’t do much good. We don’t use Cloudflare, but you can if you like.

    Maybe you can describe in a few sentences, what the difference between WP Super Cache and W3 Total Cache is?

    I use W3 Total Cache since my first WP-Project and it works ok. I started with only the basic settings and later I installed server modules like memcache… but a thing that never worked for me is the minification of css. It breaks every theme I ever used.
