What It Does

Cachify optimizes your page loads by caching posts, pages, and custom post types as static content. You can choose between caching via database, on the web server's hard drive (HDD), Memcached (only on Nginx), or Redis. Whenever a page or post is loaded, it can be pulled directly from the cache. The amount of database queries and PHP requests will dramatically decrease towards zero, depending on the caching method you chose.

This plugin features support for custom post types, a 'Flush Cache' button in the WordPress toolbar, and is ready for WordPress Multisite. It offers optional compression of HTML markup, white lists for posts and user agents, and both manual and automatic cache reset options. Additionally, it includes automatic cache management and a dashboard widget for cached objects.

Cachify is extendable via hooks and filters, ensuring that you can customize it to fit your needs. Community support is available through the support forums on WordPress.org, and active development is handled on GitHub.

FAQ

The cache expiration can not be considered due to technical reasons. If the cache stock has to be emptied at certain time intervals, then it is recommended to call a prepared PHP file by a cronjob.

To ensure that Google and other search engines do not index the static contents of the cache folder (otherwise there could be duplicate content), the robots.txt file which is located in the main directory of a WordPress installation should be expanded by disabling the path to the cache file (disallow). This issue should only happen if you use a static robots.txt or you changed the wp-content location. And so might look a robots.txt:

User-agent: * Disallow: */cache/cachify/ Allow: /

A complete documentation is available in the online handbook.
