WP Performance

Descripcion

WP Performance makes your WordPress site load faster without the headache. Turn on a few options and the plugin handles caching, asset optimization, and image delivery for you.

Not sure where to start? Open the Overview tab and pick a one-click preset (Safe, Balanced, or Aggressive). You can fine-tune anything afterwards.

Version 2.0 is a complete rebuild with a fast new dashboard and no third-party dependencies. Everything below works together out of the box.

Caching

• Page cache – serves a static HTML copy of each page, before WordPress even loads
• Block cache – cache just the slow parts of a page, even on pages you can’t fully cache (more below)
• Cache preloading – warm the cache from your sitemap
• Browser caching – tells browsers to keep files so repeat visits are instant
• GZIP compression – sends smaller files to the browser
• Object cache – optional Redis drop-in to cut database load
• Smart by default – skips logged-in users and WooCommerce/EDD cart pages, and ignores tracking parameters (utm, gclid, fbclid) so clean URLs share one cache
• Mobile cache – keep a separate copy for mobile devices when you need it

CSS

• Minify CSS (inline and files)
• Combine CSS files
• Load CSS without blocking the page
• Remove unused CSS, per page
• Critical CSS
• Combine Google Fonts, or host them on your own server
• Control font loading (font-display)
• DNS prefetch and preconnect hints

JavaScript

• Minify JavaScript (inline and files)
• Combine JavaScript files
• Defer JavaScript
• Delay JavaScript until the visitor interacts (great for third-party scripts)
• Disable scripts you don’t need, site-wide or per page

HTML

• Minify HTML
• Remove comments and unneeded markup

Images and media

• Lazy load images and videos (uses native browser lazy loading)
• Responsive images
• Add missing width and height to stop layout shift (better CLS)
• Preload your largest image and set fetchpriority for a faster LCP
• Convert images to WebP and AVIF
• Custom image sizes and one-click thumbnail regeneration
• Disable emojis and embeds

Database

• Clean up revisions, auto-drafts, trash, spam, transients, and stale cron tasks
• Schedule cleanups daily, weekly, or monthly

CDN

• Rewrite asset URLs to your CDN, with exclusions

Tools

• Overview dashboard with environment health checks
• One-click presets – Safe, Balanced, Aggressive
• Restore points – roll back to your last five saved configurations
• Troubleshooting log with a live viewer
• Export and import your settings
• Per-page exclusions from the post editor
• WP-CLI commands
• Multisite support

Block cache

Block cache stores the rendered output of a section of a page and reuses it, even on pages that are not fully cached (like logged-in or dynamic pages). Use it three ways:

1. Cache block – add the « Cache » block in the editor and put any blocks inside it
2. Shortcode – [wpp_cache ttl="600"]...[/wpp_cache]

3. PHP – in a template:

   if ( wpp_cache_start( ‘sidebar’, [ ‘ttl’ => 3600 ] ) ) { expensive_render(); wpp_cache_end(); }

You choose how long to cache and whether to keep a separate copy per page, per device, per role, or for logged-in visitors.

Add-ons

• Cloudflare – purge cache and control Cloudflare settings
• Varnish – auto-purge Varnish cache
• Prefetch – prefetch links on hover for instant navigation
