Hello! Do any of you all use a caching plugin on your marketplace? I’m looking for ideas (outside of upgrading my hosting plan) to speed things up on my website. It feels very clunky and slow to me right now.
My Caching setup is
w3 total cache
start with this set up and tinker from there – https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/w3-total-cache-sharing-hosting-settings/Autoptimize – advanced settings shown
html ticked (top box only)
js ticked with catchwrapping also ticked (top box and bottom box)
optimize css ticked with generate url for media also ticked (top 2 boxes)If you have issues untick the js and css sections
Cheers
Pousis
Also while I think about it – depending on what theme you are using you may need the following code to stop autoptimize working on certain pages that break on concatenation – social marketplace from buddyboss needed it in a couple of places.

Most caching plugins dont cache for logged in users (vendors!) — which is perfect! If by chance they dont, just exclude your dashboard, cart, checkout and my account pages from the cache. Woo already sets flags on most pages that shouldnt be cached, but you still should exclude them for best practices.
For the most part on sites that are PHP7 we’ve seen caching be disabled and be just as fast as cached. wcvendors.com is not cached and is PHP7, so food for thought. 🙂
Thanks guys! Using Google’s PageSpeed Insights (https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/), I think I ended up gaining the most benefit from compressing the images I was using (I’m up to 77/100 using the PageSpeed Tool). I installed W3 Total Cache, but limited to browser caching and page caching. I couldn’t seem to find anything called “Autoptimize” in the plugin menu.
Thank you!!!
