A2 Hosting

Hello,

Could you try re-enabling the built-in caching and then disabling the minify options? It sounds like that plugin may not play well with that setting.

Hello,

You can try disabling CSS/JS minification. Some themes and page builder plugins are not compatible with it.

Within the A2 Optimized cPanel app, you can automatically configure your WordPress site to have the proper Memcached server settings in the plugin.

If you have manually configured your own Memcached server (VPS, Dedicated server, etc), you can enter those settings in the “Advance Cache” panel in the WordPress plugin. Links to that are in the Memcached block.

The new version includes a check prior to saving what could be invalid memcached server settings. If it’s saying that it’s unable to connect, you need to check your server settings.

While this is not functionality supported by A2 Optimized, the latest version of the plugin effectively resolves this issue by removing the requirement of using W3TC.

Alternately, you can upgrade to the mainline version of W3TC where this issue should be fixed as well. Be sure to disable the caching functionality of A2 Optimized as A2 Optimized does not support configuring newer versions of W3TC.

Hello,

Basically the internal caching of A2 Optimized will be considered the supported method and the W3TC version that works with A2 Optimized will not be getting updates in the future.

The performance between the two methods is comparable on a plain vanilla install of WordPress. However, on our “large” testing sites (~5k posts and loaded with popular themes & plugins), the internal caching engine used way less system resources and was much more responsive.

If you have the A2 Fixed version of W3TC installed and active, the optimizations related to caching within A2 Optimized will configure and use W3TC automatically. Otherwise the built-in cache engine is used.

Hello!

With the current version, if the excluded cookie settings within the “Advanced Caching” panel are left as default, then logged in users will bypass the cache. If you want to change that list, say to add more exclusions, you’ll need to include “wordpress_logged_in” within the regex to continue to bypass the cache for logged in users.

For installs that are using the W3 Total Cache, it should also bypass caching for logged in users by default as well, but that is a checkbox in the W3 Total Cache settings.

Hello,

First off I’d like to apologize for the issues you’re having with A2 Optimized. We try to tailor the default settings to work best with the majority of common website setup. That being said, sometimes there’s some setup that don’t quite work as well.

If you’d like to open a ticket with A2 Hosting support we can assign support staff directly to your account to further troubleshoot the issue.

A couple of general things I can suggest from reading your very detailed and helpful ticket here are:

• TurboCache, by default, has a default 15 minute TTL. You can adjust this on a site by site basis within the A2 Optimized cPanel module. This behaves independently from the cache settings within WordPress
• Some page builders have issues when their Javascript is minified by A2 Optimized. You can try disabling that feature within A2 Optimized and see that improves things. Also mention this in your support ticket as we track popular themes/plugins for possible incompatibilities.

Hello!

If you go into the W3 Total Cache settings you can set JS files to be ignored.

From the main wp-admin sidebar menu select “Performance” -> “Minify”. Then scroll down to the “Advanced” section and there is a “Never minify the following JS files:” box.

This is from either WordPress or PHP having deprecation warnings enabled.

That said, we do have a update for all of the Total Cache deprecation issues in the pipeline.

This is not directly related to A2 Optimized, but you would need to directly access the wp-content/themes/THEMENAME folder directly on the file system via (S)FTP, cPanel file manager, etc and remove it completely. After than you can re-upload the theme package.

Hello,

The latest version of A2 Optimized should detect Divi or Divi child themes and ask if you’d like to apply Divi specific settings.

Disabling minification within the A2 Optimized admin panel should work as well.

First off I guess we would suggest clearing the site / minify cache if you haven’t already.

After that, you can try the standard troubleshooting steps of trying one of the default themes, and disabling your plugins one by one to see which one is causing the issue with your galleries.
