Powered Cache Premium

Powered Cache Premium combines WordPress caching, file and media optimization, database maintenance, and administration utilities in one configurable interface. Page caching prepares pages for faster delivery; object caching supports dynamic pageviews and works with Redis, Memcached, Memcache, and APCu. Advanced page cache rules let you configure behavior for various content or delivery requirements.

Cache preparation and delivery

Cache preloading generates cached pages in advance. Sitemap preloading visits URLs listed in a sitemap to generate their cached pages. Smart cache purging clears only the cache affected by content changes. Logged-in user caching is available for user-specific content and membership websites. Separate mobile cache documents are available when a site uses a separate mobile theme.

CDN integration uses entered CNAMEs and corresponding zones. Rewrite support can configure .htaccess automatically so cached files can be served without executing PHP. Gzip compresses cached files, and the Premium Varnish extension adds Varnish cache support.

Styles, scripts, and images

Critical CSS and asynchronous CSS loading prioritize essential styles. Remove Unused CSS scans a site for CSS rules that are not in use, helping reduce unnecessary stylesheet content. File optimization can minify and combine CSS and JavaScript files, and Google Fonts URLs can be combined to optimize font loading.

The Image Optimizer compresses images on the fly and converts them to AVIF or WebP. Automatic picture dimension assignment adds missing dimensions to images to support layout stability and loading performance. Other media controls include lazy loading, replacing YouTube videos with thumbnails, managing WordPress embeds, and removing emoji scripts. Link prefetching can pre-fetch links for a smoother browsing experience.

Extensions and website administration

Built-in extensions include Cloudflare and Heartbeat tools. Premium-only extensions include Varnish, Google Tracking, and Facebook Tracking. The Google and Facebook tracking extensions host their respective external scripts locally and update them when the external resource changes. Scheduled database cleanups support recurring maintenance.

WP-CLI options support workflows using the WordPress command line. The interface is ad-free, and Premium includes access to premium support, one-on-one help, and documentation. Settings can be imported and exported. The extension supports WordPress multisite activation network-wide or on individual sites, and domain mapping including Mercator and native WordPress domain mapping.

Installation and setup

Install Powered Cache Premium in WordPress and review the available caching and optimization settings. Configure page caching, object caching, file and media optimization, and any extensions needed for the site. After saving, use the cache controls and preload options that match the site's workflow.
