WordPress Plugin Playground

Today we upgraded to the latest version of Wp Super Cache – which I think is just great. It is pretty tried and trued and has saved us a lot of head aches in other projects.

We are also running w3 total cache, but experimenting with using its built in memcached funcationalities to cache database queries.

Just uploaded WP Minify as well as a test to combine and minify js/css files before sending them to users. I’m not sure if its a good thing or a bad thing yet. Before we were running just a minify function of the w3 total cache.

Lets see how it goes, thoughts comments?

    @Jason,
    To be frank, there is no comparison between blogger and wordpress. Wp (self hosted) just wins in every aspect, except that Blogger is free to host.
    Staying on topic, the wp cache plugin has saved me from many warnings(and possibly a ban) that I should have got from my host if it weren’t there. I still remember those days when my articles were dugg, that sudden increase in traffic, ohh thanks to super cache plugin. And jason, you don’t have anything like that for Blogger. Google can take your site down for any reason, you have no control at all.

    As google have began to rank sites on speed of download, Wp Super Cache will help in download times.

    I just recently switched one of my personal blogs from the Google blogger platform to WP and have been in search of some plugins. I am glad I was looking at your recent comments after being led to your site via another article or I would never have found this gem. Looking forward to uploading and testing this tomorrow, thank you for the tip.

    Thanks for the post. I might think of using a good wordpress cache plugin too.
    For w3 total cache, do I need to install memcached module to the server first?

    Thanks for the update. I look forward to reading reviews on these caching programs. Hope they work out for you!
