Overview
Managing caching on many WordPress sites usually means opening each site's admin area and repeating the same changes. This extension moves that work into the MainWP Dashboard. You can adjust WP Rocket preferences, clear caches and preload caches for your connected child sites from a single screen, which cuts down on repetitive administration.
Beyond cache control, it covers file and loading options such as deferred loading of images and JavaScript, minifying HTML, CSS and JavaScript, and combining CSS and JS files. A self-hosted crawler bot can visit your sites and pre-generate cache files. The interface is built to be readable for beginners and practical for experienced developers who look after several sites.
Features
- Central WP Rocket control: Manage WP Rocket settings for all connected child sites from one MainWP Dashboard, so you do not need to switch between individual site backends.
- Clear and preload caches: Clear or preload caches across multiple sites from the MainWP interface, so visitors receive up-to-date content served from the cache.
- Deferred loading options: Defer the loading of images and JavaScript to change how pages load on each connected site, managed from the dashboard.
- File minification: Minify HTML, CSS and JavaScript files and combine CSS and JS files through the WP Rocket options exposed in the extension.
- Self-hosted crawler bot: A crawler bot on your own setup visits your sites and generates cache files ahead of time, so visitors get cached versions on arrival.
- CSS delivery settings: Control how CSS is delivered, including the Optimize CSS delivery option and the Load CSS Async choice, across your managed sites.
- Simple dashboard interface: An intuitive layout makes caching and performance settings approachable for people at different skill levels.
- Built for multi-site work: Apply consistent performance settings across a network of WordPress sites, which suits agencies, developers and businesses with many client sites.
