Voce Widget Cache Plugin

Easily cache widget output for better performance.

This plugin does not cache widgets automatically! You must define which widgets get cached.

Add a widget to the cache and designate which actions the cache gets flushed on.

$widget_cache = Voce_Widget_Cache::GetInstance(); $widget_cache->cache_widget( 'Archive_Links_Widget', array( 'save_post' ) ); $widget_cache->cache_widget( 'WP_Widget_Recent_Posts' ); 

Installation

  1. Upload voce-widget-cache to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
  3. Usage:

    $widget_cache = Voce_Widget_Cache::GetInstance();
    $widget_cache->cache_widget( ‘Archive_Links_Widget’, array( ‘save_post’ ) );
    $widget_cache->cache_widget( ‘WP_Widget_Recent_Posts’ );

FAQ

I installed the plugin but nothing is happening

The caching is not automatic. Refer to the documentation to see how to implement caching on widgets.

How can I verify my widgets are being cached?

You could use a plugin like WPDB Profiling
