I’m happy to announce DB Cache Reloaded Fix v2.2.4. For those who don’t know DB Cache Reloaded Fix, it’s a WordPress plugin that caches queries made to the database, thereby improving your WordPress blog’s performance. It’s not originally mine — it’s a fork of the old DB Cache Reloaded which was not compatible since WordPress 3.1. Thanks to all of you; your input and feedback has been really helpful.
What’s New in DB Cache Reloaded Fix v2.2.4
There are some fixes that will definitely improve WordPress performance:
- Move the cache folder from wp-content/tmp to the plugin directory db-cache-reloaded-fix/cache
- Now it will cache complex queries, including posts, post meta, and join queries
- Cache cleaning has been moved to the WordPress scheduler, rather than checking and cleaning for every query made
- Added French translation
DB Cache Reloaded Fix Installation
It is easy to install — just go to Plugins from your admin dashboard and search for DB Cache Reloaded Fix, or see the instruction here.
DB Cache Reloaded Fix Configuration
DB Cache Reloaded Fix is easy to configure. All you need to do is enable it, fill in the “Expire a cached query after” box (for my blog I put 1440 minutes, meaning it will cache for 24 hours), then save it. Note: For faster performance you can leave “Cache filter” blank, which means it will cache all queries.
So what’s keeping me busy with this plugin? There are still some ideas I need to put into the plugin. I’m still in development and testing for multi-database cache and distributed caching. Hopefully it will be done sometime before the new year.
If you like this plugin, please support me through the WordPress page and refer it to your friends. Thanks.
