    Hi,
    I have my WP install on one server (files) and my database on another server. Cannot make the plugin to connect. I’ve added to my wp-config.php:

    define( 'WP_REDIS_HOST', '104.207.130.130' );
define( 'WP_REDIS_PORT', 6379 );
define( 'WP_REDIS_TIMEOUT', 1 );
define( 'WP_REDIS_READ_TIMEOUT', 1 );
define( 'WP_REDIS_DATABASE', 0 );

    but still status: Not connected.
    Do I need to do something else for this to work?

    Hi!

    I’d try connecting like this first:

    <?php

$redis = new Redis;
$redis->connect('104.207.130.130', 6379, 3.0, null, 300, 3.5);

var_dump($redis->ping());

    Hi @tillkruess,
    thanks for the feedback. I’ve inserted your code at the end of my wp-config.php file and got an error: “Fatal error: uncaught exception: connection timed out”.
    Is there any special way I need to add this in my wp-config file?

    No, given your responses I’d recommend hiring a developer to assist you with your Redis Server setup and connection.

    My guess is either Redis Server isn’t running at all, or not accessible from your web server(s).
