Cache 28 Free 20 Pro Serving pages from storage instead of rebuilding them every time.
| Feature | Free | Pro |
|---|---|---|
| Page Cache | ||
| Cache expiry (hours) How long a cached page stays valid before it is rebuilt. Longer means fewer rebuilds, shorter means fresher content. Read the docs | ||
| Excluded URLs | ||
| Excluded cookies | ||
| Bypass user-agents Skip the cache for specific browsers, bots or devices you name here. Read the docs | ||
| Ignored query parameters | ||
| Purge after updates | ||
| Smarter nginx purges and background admin-bar purge Publishing a post on nginx purges only the pages it touches, not the whole server cache, and the admin-bar purge runs in the background instead of holding the request open. Read the docs | ||
| LiteSpeed fast path (static serving before PHP) On LiteSpeed servers, cached pages can be served before PHP starts, the same shortcut nginx and Apache sites already had. Read the docs | ||
| Separate mobile cache Stores a second copy of each page for mobile visitors so a desktop layout is never served to a phone. Read the docs | ||
| Preloader | ||
| Crawl Now | ||
| Crawl schedule (manual / hourly / daily / weekly) Visits your pages in the background so the first real visitor lands on a cached page instead of building one. Read the docs | ||
| Batch size | ||
| Sitemap URL (optional) | ||
| Warm new content immediately | ||
| Re-warm after comments | ||
| Scheduled Prewarming | ||
| Enable scheduled prewarming | ||
| Warm scheduled posts on publish | ||
| Max URLs per run | ||
| Predictive Warming | ||
| Enable predictive warming Learns which pages get traffic and keeps those warm first, inside a crawl budget you set. Read the docs | ||
| Crawl budget (URLs per run) | ||
| How often to warm | ||
| Skip already-warm pages | ||
| Browser Cache | ||
| Enable browser cache headers | ||
| Static asset TTL | ||
| HTML TTL | ||
| Object Cache | ||
| Backend (Redis / Memcached) Object cache keeps database query results in memory so WordPress stops asking the same question twice. Read the docs | ||
| Redis host | ||
| Redis port | ||
| Redis user | ||
| Redis password | ||
| Redis database | ||
| Memcached host | ||
| Memcached port | ||
| Cache key prefix | ||
| Connection timeout (seconds) | ||
| Persistent connections | ||
| Advanced Cache | ||
| What to cache | ||
| Cache 404 pages | ||
| 404 cache lifetime (minutes) | ||
| Cache search results | ||
| Search cache lifetime (minutes) | ||
| Feeds & API | ||
| Cache feeds | ||
| Feed cache lifetime (hours) | ||
| REST API caching Caches REST API responses per route, useful for headless front ends and block editors. Read the docs | ||
| Default TTL (minutes) | ||
| Route rules | ||
| Rules & bypass | ||
| Custom cache rules | ||
| Maintenance-aware caching Stops serving stale cached pages while your site is in maintenance mode. Read the docs | ||
| Enable maintenance-aware caching | ||
| Adaptive Cache | ||
| AI-suggested cache TTL (from 24h traffic) Reads the last 24 hours of traffic and suggests a cache lifetime that fits how often your pages actually change. Read the docs | ||
Optimization 43 Free 23 Pro Making the page itself lighter: CSS, JavaScript, images and fonts.
| Feature | Free | Pro |
|---|---|---|
| CSS & JavaScript | ||
| Minify | ||
| Minify HTML | ||
| Minify CSS | ||
| Minify JavaScript | ||
| Combine CSS | ||
| Combine JavaScript | ||
| Defer JavaScript | ||
| Delay JavaScript until interaction Holds non-essential scripts until the visitor scrolls, taps or moves the mouse. A big win for third-party embeds. Read the docs | ||
| Smart Delay Also delays the scripts inline code depends on, carrying those snippets along so everything runs in page order on the first interaction. Read the docs | ||
| Delay only these scripts | ||
| Delay failsafe timeout (ms) | ||
| Defer / Delay Exclusions | ||
| Load CSS asynchronously Lets the page render before every stylesheet has finished downloading. Read the docs | ||
| Remove asset query strings | ||
| Critical CSS | ||
| Enable Critical CSS Extracts the CSS needed for the visible part of the page and inlines it, so content paints sooner. Read the docs | ||
| Defer remaining stylesheets | ||
| Learn the fold from real visitors Uses real viewport data instead of a guessed screen size to decide what counts as above the fold. Read the docs | ||
| Critical CSS, instantly A fold measured in a real browser takes effect the same day, instead of waiting for visitor reports to confirm it. Read the docs | ||
| Unused CSS | ||
| Enable Unused CSS Strips CSS rules your pages never use. Typically the largest single CSS saving on a page-builder site. Read the docs | ||
| Learn from real visitors | ||
| Never prune these selectors | ||
| Unused CSS hardened Refuses to build from a page that already serves pruned CSS, so a front cache can never poison the result. Read the docs | ||
| Scheduled CSS builds via Hub job queue Critical and Unused CSS builds render through the xSpeed Hub job queue: the site submits a page and collects the finished measurement. Read the docs | ||
| Compression | ||
| GZIP | ||
| GZIP compression | ||
| Brotli | ||
| Enable Brotli A denser compression method than GZIP. Smaller files for browsers that support it, with GZIP as fallback. Read the docs | ||
| Pre-compress cached files | ||
| Compression quality | ||
| Media Optimization | ||
| Lazy Loading | ||
| Lazy-load images | ||
| Lazy-load iframes | ||
| Lazy-load HTML5 videos | ||
| Click-to-play video facade Shows a lightweight preview image instead of loading the full YouTube or Vimeo player until it is clicked. Read the docs | ||
| Eager-load first N images (LCP) Loads your first images immediately instead of lazily, so the largest visible element appears faster. Read the docs | ||
| Add missing image dimensions Adds width and height to images that lack them, which stops the layout jumping as they load. Read the docs | ||
| Excluded Images | ||
| Image Optimization | ||
| Convert to WebP Serves a modern, smaller format of each image while keeping the original as a fallback. Read the docs | ||
| Convert to AVIF An even smaller format than WebP. The best compression available, slower to encode. Read the docs | ||
| WebP quality | ||
| AVIF quality | ||
| Serve WebP/AVIF for every image (server rewrite) | ||
| Convert existing images (bulk) | ||
| Smart Image | ||
| Smart Image (AI) Picks the format and quality per image instead of applying one setting to your whole library. Read the docs | ||
| Fonts | ||
| Add font-display: swap Shows text in a fallback font immediately rather than leaving a blank space while a web font loads. Read the docs | ||
| Preload Font URLs | ||
| Resource Hints | ||
| Hints | ||
| Preload LCP image Tells the browser to fetch your hero image early, before it has finished parsing the page. Read the docs | ||
| Images to Preload | ||
| Exclude From Preload | ||
| Preconnect to font hosts Opens the connection to a font or asset domain in advance so the request does not wait on a handshake. Read the docs | ||
| Extra Preconnect Hosts | ||
| SmartPredict | ||
| Enable SmartPredict Predicts the next page a visitor will open and prefetches it, within a confidence threshold you set. Read the docs | ||
| Minimum confidence (%) | ||
| Max prefetches per page | ||
| SmartPredict (prefetch and prerender next page) Sets how WordPress 6.8+ speculatively loads the next page: prefetch or prerender, when to start, and paths to always or never load. Read the docs | ||
| Bloat Control | ||
| Disable emojis Removes the WordPress emoji script and styles. Emojis still show, drawn by the browser itself. Read the docs | ||
| Disable dashicons | ||
| Disable oEmbed | ||
| Disable RSS feeds | ||
| Disable XML-RPC | ||
| Strip jQuery Migrate Removes a legacy compatibility script most modern themes no longer need. Read the docs | ||
| Restrict REST API to logged-in | ||
| Turbo Render | ||
| Render as visitors scroll Paints the top of the page first and renders each lower section just before it scrolls into view. Nothing is removed. Read the docs | ||
| Sections to render immediately How many sections at the top of the page are never deferred. Read the docs | ||
| Section classes Which elements count as a section. Elementor, Divi, Bricks, Oxygen and Beaver Builder are covered by default. Read the docs | ||
| Excluded classes Sections that always render straight away, for designs where one section overlaps the next. Read the docs | ||
| Heartbeat | ||
| Dashboard heartbeat control Slows the background admin polling that WordPress runs, which lowers CPU on shared hosting. Read the docs | ||
| Editor heartbeat control | ||
| Frontend heartbeat control | ||
| Throttle frequency | ||
