Welcome to another installment of WordPress Wednesday<\/a>!
\nToday\u2019s topic is: Simple LiteSpeed Cache Settings<\/strong><\/p>\n

Disclaimer<\/strong>: The information contained in this post was accurate for LSCWP v1.9 [release log<\/a>], but is now out of date. We’re sorry, but LSCache no longer has this Basic\/Advanced mechanism. If you are overwhelmed by all of the options, try Presets. Here is an article on how to use Presets<\/a>. A good place to start is the “Essentials” preset, which enables some simple, low-risk caching settings.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Generally speaking, the more features you add to a piece of software, the more complicated the interface gets. Well, this week I\u2019m going to tell you about a recent feature in LSCache for WordPress that actually makes the interface less<\/em> complicated<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

The Non-Power User<\/h2>\n

We get a lot of feature requests from power users, and it\u2019s these requests that have helped drive so much of the innovation of the last several months.<\/p>\n

But there\u2019s another type of user; one that we don\u2019t often hear from. It\u2019s the site owner who doesn\u2019t want (or understand) all of those new bells and whistles. This type of user often will install the plugin, see twelve or thirteen overwhelming tabs of settings, and change his or her mind on the spot. Uninstall<\/em>!<\/p>\n

We think it\u2019s kind of a shame to lose people who might actually love our plugin, if they didn\u2019t find it so overwhelming! So, it\u2019s in that spirit that we share this new feature.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re one of those not-so-intrepid users, this one\u2019s for you!<\/p>\n

Introducing Basic View<\/h2>\n

\"Simple<\/p>\n

Basic View<\/strong> is ideal for those who simply wish to enable the cache and not fiddle with any of the other optimization options. When you install and activate LSCWP, it starts in Basic View by default.<\/p>\n

Advanced View<\/strong> reveals eight more tabs, some with advanced cache settings, some with non-cache-related optimization features. If you will find the presence of these options to be overwhelming, you can click Basic View and forget all about them.<\/p>\n

\"Simple<\/p>\n

You are free to switch between Basic and Advanced views as often as you like. You are in complete control.<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s all there is to it! It\u2019s a short-and-sweet WordPress Wednesday this week. If you want to know more, you can visit our Beginner\u2019s Guide<\/a> and get all of the up-to-date details about what is included in each view.<\/p>\n

And please don\u2019t be a stranger! We like to hear ideas from all<\/em> of our users, not just the ones who understand what \u201cload CSS asynchronously\u201d means 😁<\/p>\n
