=== WP Roids === Stable tag: 1.3.3 Requires at least: 4.2 Tested up to: 4.7.2 License: GPLv3 or later License URI: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0-standalone.html Contributors: philmeadows Donate link: http://philmeadows.com/say-thank-you/ Tags: cache,caching,minify,minification,page speed,pagespeed,optimize,optimise,performance,compress,fast Probably the fastest Caching and Minification for WordPress®. Tested FASTER than: WP Super Cache, W3 Total Cache, and many more! == Description == **Fast AF caching! Plus minifies your site's HTML, CSS & Javascript** **Version 1.3.* is a HUGER update than 1.2!** This should *hopefully* deal with many of the, "it broke my site", issues. I recommend deactivating and reactivating after update (maybe twice) to ensure `.htaccess` is rewritten correctly and the old cache is flushed No complicated settings to deal with; 1. Deactivate/delete any current caching or minification plugins 2. Install WP Roids 3. Activate WP Roids 4. Log out 5. Refresh your home page TWICE = How Fast Is It? = In testing, WP Roids was FASTER than: - WP Super Cache - W3 Total Cache - WP Fastest Cache - Comet Cache - ...and many more! See the screenshots tab for test results = Where Can I Check Site Speed? = Either of these two sites is good: - [Pingdom](https://tools.pingdom.com) - [GTmetrix](https://gtmetrix.com) = Software Requirements = In addition to the [WordPress Requirements](http://wordpress.org/about/requirements/), WP Roids requires the following: - PHP version greater than 5.4 - **It WILL throw errors on activation if not! No damage should occur though** - PHP cURL extension enabled (usually is by default on most decent hosts) == Installation == **NOTE:** WP Roids requires the `.htaccess` file to have permissions set to 644 at time of activation. Some security plugins (quite rightly) change the permissions to disable editing. Please temporarily disable this functionality for a moment whilst activating WP Roids. The quickest and easiest way to install is via the `Plugins > Add New` feature within WordPress®. But if you must, manual installation instructions follow... 1. Download and unzip the latest release zip file. 2. If you use the WordPress plugin uploader to install this plugin skip to step 4. 3. Upload the entire plugin directory to your `/wp-content/plugins/` directory. 4. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress Administration. == Screenshots == 1. Baseline - no caching applied 2. Cachify 3. W3 Total Cache 4. WP Super Cache 5. Simple Cache 6. Comet Cache 7. Cache Enabler 8. WP Fastest Cache 9. WP Roids - not bad, eh? == Frequently Asked Questions == = Is WP Roids compatible with iThemes Security? = Yes.

You can re-enable it after activation = Is WP Roids compatible with WooCommerce? = Yes = Is WP Roids compatible with the "Instagram Feed" plugin? = Yes, but you must tick the "Are you using an Ajax powered theme?" option to "Yes" = Is WP Roids compatible with the "Disqus Comment System" plugin? = Yes = Is WP Roids compatible with the "Visual Form Builder" plugin? = Yes = Is WP Roids compatible with the "Simple Share Buttons Adder" plugin? = Yes = Does WP Roids work on IIS (Windows) servers? = Probably not == License == Copyright: © 2017 [Philip K Meadows](http://philmeadows.com) (coded in Great Britain) Released under the terms of the [GNU General Public License](http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0-standalone.html) = Credits / Additional Acknowledgments = * Software designed for WordPress® - GPL License - WordPress® * Photograph of Lance Armstrong - Source: - Used without permission, but "Fair Use" for the purposes of caricature and parody == Upgrade Notice == = v1.3.3 = Minor fixes = v1.3.1 = Switched off debugger = v1.3.0 = Another HUGE update!
