Page caching prepares pages for delivery, while object caching supports dynamic pageviews. Powered Cache Premium brings these settings together with file optimization, media controls, and database maintenance in one configurable interface.

Set cache behavior for pages and visitors

Use advanced page cache rules to apply various caching settings to different content or delivery requirements. Object caching supports Redis, Memcached, Memcache, and APCu. Cache preloading generates cached pages in advance; sitemap preloading visits URLs listed in a sitemap to prepare their cached pages.

Smart cache purging clears the cache affected by content changes. Logged-in user caching is available for user-specific content and membership sites. You can make separate mobile cache files when your website uses a separate mobile theme.

Choose how styles, scripts, and pictures are handled

Critical CSS and asynchronous CSS loading prioritize essential styles. Remove Unused CSS scans the website for unused rules, which can reduce unnecessary stylesheet content. Automatic image dimension assignment includes missing dimensions to support layout stability and loading performance.

The Image Optimizer compresses images on the fly and converts them to AVIF or WebP. File optimization can minify and combine CSS and JavaScript. Other media controls include lazy loading, replacing YouTube videos with thumbnails, managing WordPress embeds, and removing emoji scripts. Google Fonts URLs can be combined to optimize font loading, and link prefetching can pre-fetch links for a smoother browsing experience.

Deliver cached files and handle maintenance

For CDN integration, enter CNAMEs and their 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.

Scheduled database cleanups let you run recurring maintenance. The interface also offers cache controls and preload options for your site's workflow.

Use extensions and administration tools

Cloudflare and Heartbeat tools are built in. Varnish, Google Tracking, and Facebook Tracking are Premium-only extensions. The tracking extensions host their respective external scripts locally and update them when the external resource changes.

WP-CLI support provides command-line options for WordPress command-line processes. The add-on supports multisite activation network-wide or on an individual site, and works with domain mapping through Mercator or WordPress's native domain mapping feature. Settings can be imported and exported. The interface is ad-free, and Premium includes access to premium support, one-on-one help, and documentation.

Install and configure

Install Powered Cache Premium in WordPress and review its available caching and optimization settings. Configure page and object caching, file and media optimization, and any extensions your site needs. Import or export settings when managing configurations. After saving, use the cache controls and preload options that fit your workflow.
