Description
Hyper Cache Extended is a new cache system for WordPress, specifically written for
people which have their blogs on low resources hosting provider
(cpu and mysql). It works even with hosting based on Microsoft IIS (just tuning
the configuration). It has three invalidation method: all the cache, single post
based and nothing but with control on home and archive pages invalidation.
Hyper Cache Extended is based on original wordpress plugin «Hyper Cache» wich is
writen by Satollo (https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/hyper-cache)
It has not yet tested for multisite configuration (WordPress 3.0 feature).
Some features:
- compatible with the plugin wp-pda which enables a blog to be accessible from mobile devices
- manages (both) plain and gzip compressed pages
- autoclean system to reduce the disk usage
- 404 caching
- redirects caching
- easy to configure
- Global Translator compatibility
- Last Modified http header compatibility with 304 responses
- compressed storage to reduce the disk space usage
- agents, urls and cookies based rejection configurable
- easy to integrated with other plugins
- option to move cache to other partition/disk
- only serve cached pages when web server average load is above a certain number

- How can I submit a bug?
-
Contact me at martin@lazarov.bg – it’s the quickest way to have it fixed. You can post to the WordPress forum too but I read it rarely.
- What is Max Server Load Average?
-
If the
Server load
is aboveMax server load average
then the plugin will serve only cached version and will not try to create new cache file until the server load is bellowMax server load average
value.
You can read more about this in bulgarian - Is it possible to exclude caching on certain pages with Hyper Cache Extended
-
Yes! You can use
URI to reject
text box to enter URL’s that will not be cached!
Use with caution – not allowing HCE to cache can lead to slow WordPres experience - Do do the HCE has option to automatically delete the expired cache?
-
You can click on “Enable” for “Cleaning process” – “Cleaning process – Enable/Disable auto purging of old files. Enable cleaning process to remove expired cache. This will free some space, but it’s better to keep this Disabled”.
