    I was doing a compatibility check and these items were flagged red.. Will this adversely affect this plugin??

    Opcode cache: Not installed
    Memcache extension: Not installed
    Mime type detection: Not installed

  • With the first two in particular, you just won’t be able to leverage the full power of the plugin. Assuming that you’re running apache on a Debian/Ubuntu machine, use the following line to enable memcached:

    sudo apt-get install memcached php5-memcache

    If you’re running CentOS (specifically the yum package manager), use:

    sudo yum install memcached php5-memcache

    Restart apache:

    /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

    And recheck the compatibility. You should see some changes ??

    I’m on a shared hosted server.. How would would I be able to do what you suggest??

    I don’t imagine that you’d be able to—you’re largely at the mercy of your web host. I’ve still seen phenomenal results on my shared hosting account sites using the plugin, so I wouldn’t stress too much.
