== Frequently Asked Questions ==
= Does this plugin require special server configuration? =
No, SpeedyGo works with standard WordPress installations. For best results, use PHP 7.2+.
= Can I exclude specific files or URLs from caching or minification? =
Yes, you can define exclusions for caching, minification, and combination in the settings.
= Is SpeedyGo compatible with WooCommerce? =
Yes, it automatically bypasses caching for WooCommerce dynamic pages like Cart, Checkout, and My Account.
= Will this plugin break my site's design? =
It shouldn't! However, if you notice any visual issues after enabling CSS/JS minification or combination, you can easily exclude specific files or disable those specific features in the settings while keeping caching active.
= How do I clear the cache? =
You can quickly purge the entire cache from the SpeedyGo item in the WordPress admin bar, or from the plugin's settings page.
= Will I get free CDN in this plugin? =
Yes you get the CDN support with free version and with paid version you will get exclusive CDN storage.
= Will this plugin improve my Google Core Web Vitals? =
Yes, by optimizing LCP (Largest Contentful Paint) and other key metrics through caching, minification, and deferred asset loading, SpeedyGo is designed to directly improve your Core Web Vitals score.
= Is SpeedyGo suitable for high-traffic websites? =
Absolutely. Its advanced full-page caching and query optimization are built to scale, ensuring your server remains stable even during massive traffic spikes.
= What is the difference between SpeedyGo Free and Pro? =
The free version offers essential full-page caching and minification. The Pro version unlocks advanced features like automated Critical CSS generation, image optimization (WebP), advanced mobile caching rules, and priority support.
= Why aren't my changes showing up after editing a page? =
SpeedyGo automatically purges the cache when you update a post or page. If your changes don't appear, try manually clearing the cache via the admin bar. Also, ensure you don't have a separate server-level cache or CDN cache that needs to be cleared.
= Is SpeedyGo compatible with page builders like Elementor or Divi? =
Yes, it works seamlessly with popular page builders. If you experience visual anomalies after an update, you may need to clear the builder's internal cache alongside SpeedyGo's cache.
= How does the 'Preload Cache' feature work? =
It automatically visits your pages in the background so that the cache is already generated before a real visitor arrives, ensuring the fastest possible load times.
= Does this plugin support WordPress Multisite? =
Yes, SpeedyGo is fully compatible with WordPress Multisite networks. You can network-activate it or activate it on individual sub-sites.

== Changelog ==
= 2.1.10 =
* New: Critical CSS + async stylesheet loading (fixes render-blocking).
* Fix: Defer being silently disabled on all minified scripts.
* Enhancement: Added 'Unlock Pro Version' and 'Need Developer Help?' banners on the connection success page.
* New: Self-heal safety net - If an optimized file throws a JS error, the plugin detects it and automatically switches that feature off on that site.
* New: Kill switch / safe mode - Any feature can be disabled remotely per site end-to-end.
* New: Stale-while-revalidate serving - Visitors always receive a cached page instantly while cache refreshes in the background.
* New: Smart cache purges - Targeted, de-duplicated purges with a tag index replace blanket cache wipes.
= 2.1.9 =
* New: Apply optimization presets (Starter, Moderate, Extensive) directly from the WordPress admin bar. Hover the SpeedyGo item, choose a preset, and it configures all your settings, purges the cache, and shows a live progress timeline - your choice also syncs to the SpeedyGo dashboard, so there is no need to open the dashboard.
* Fix: Some connected sites were being automatically disconnected roughly a day after activation. License verification now disconnects a site only when its subscription is genuinely cancelled or expired (confirmed over several days). A signature or key mismatch, a host without the PHP sodium extension, a timeout, or any other temporary/technical error can no longer disconnect a working site - the plugin stays connected and simply retries.
* Fix: Scheduled cache tasks that appeared as "Unknown schedule" with no action in cron tools (e.g. WP Crontrol) are now always registered correctly and clean themselves up when their feature is turned off, so no orphaned events remain.
* Fix: Editing or updating a post now reliably clears that page's cached copy.
* New: Home-page image-optimization (WebP) savings are measured and reported to your SpeedyGo dashboard.
* Improvement: Faster cache delivery - cached pages are stored pre-compressed (no per-request gzip), and the main above-the-fold image is prioritized (fetchpriority) for a quicker Largest Contentful Paint. After a purge or edit, visitors are served the previous cached page while the new one rebuilds in the background.
* Improvement: Add ?nospeedygo to any URL to view the page with all SpeedyGo optimizations bypassed for that request (handy for support and debugging).
* Compatibility: Tested with WordPress 7.0 and PHP 8.x.
= 2.1.8 =
* New: Serves cache before WordPress fully loads (big TTFB win), with auto-rollback safety.
= 2.1.7 =
* Fix: Button linking and some design fixes.
= 2.1.6 =
* New: Added API detection to automatically notify users if another caching plugin is active, preventing conflicts.
* Enhancement: Redesigned the admin connection page with a modern UI and manual connection fallback form.
* Enhancement: Added active and hover state styling for the SpeedyGo admin menu.
* Enhancement: Made the admin connection page WPML translation ready.
* Cleanup: Removed unused promo banners and background images to reduce plugin footprint.
= 2.1.5 =
* Fix: Removed a temporary debug block from the license validation flow that could leak raw database details (table name, query counts) inside the "Invalid license key" error shown on the Connect page. Added a safety net so debug output can never reach a customer's screen again, even from a future server-side regression.
* Fix: font-display: swap now correctly overrides an existing bad value (e.g. font-display: block or auto) shipped in a theme or third-party plugin's own font CSS, instead of only applying when the property was missing entirely. Previously, a theme icon font or a service like Font Awesome that already set font-display: block would keep that value untouched, leaving the PageSpeed "Font display" warning in place even with this setting enabled.
* Fix: Resolved "Mixed Content" errors that could block the plugin's own generated CSS, JS, and WebP images on sites running behind a reverse proxy or CDN that terminates SSL upstream of the server (e.g. Cloudflare, a load balancer). Cache URLs are now correctly generated as https when the site is actually served over https, even when WordPress's own SSL detection is inconclusive.
= 2.1.4 =
* Fix: When both Gzip/Brotli compression and "Defer JS" were enabled at the same time, the defer attribute was silently never added to any script tag. Root cause: compression ran first, converting the HTML to binary bytes, then the defer pass couldn't find any `
