Oxyplug Prefetch & Prerender Plugin

Faster loading next pages by prerendering/prefetching all links a user hovers or addresses you prefer. It improves UX and Core Web Vitals score.

  • Supported only on Chromium-based browsers since version 121+
  • In the post/product category pages, first X items will be prefetched before the user clicks. The default value for X is 4 items and can be adjusted via the plugin settings.
  • If a user hovers over a link, the destination page will be prefetched before click. Please note that this option is disabled by default and can be enabled via the plugin settings.
  • It is also possible to prefetch some custom links on posts/products by entering preferred URLs.
  • Similar actions can be applied with prerender.

Installation

For better result, customize the settings as you wish.
